Well, DumbDumb, perhaps you can point me to the provision in the Constitution where it mentions the necessary elements of a birth certificate.

Certainly Lying childish idiot, right after you point out where the Constitution mentions "guns."

Oh, and the necessary elements of "bullets."

Certainly Lying childish idiot, right after you point out where the Constitution mentions "guns.

In 1787, the average person would have understood "arms" in the "the peoples' right to bear arms" to include guns, a thing then existing. Scalia makes this very point in the Heller case.

By contrast, no one in 1787 would have understood "no one except a natural born citizen" to mean "you have to proffer a birth certificate," a thing that didn't then exist.

One is an apple. One is an orange. Clearly, you are too dense to tell them apart.
