The Second Amendment is why we cant go to school, or work, or a house of worship, or a nightclub, or a movie theater, or a music festival, or pretty much any public gathering without fear of getting shot to death. The Second Amendment is why you cant be immediately arrested for openly carrying around an assault rifle in a public place, and why you cant be immediately arrested for smuggling a hand-cannon in your gym shorts. The Second Amendment is how law enforcement justifies the need for military-grade armamentsto match the firepower they meet in the streets. The Second Amendment is why we have a generation of young people that is scarred or missing from gun violence. And the Second Amendment is why I had to tell my 6-year-old last night to act like Scaredy Squirrel and play dead if an active shooter storms his classroom, thereby mangling the whole moral of the books.

Textually, the amendment itself is almost toothless and easily amenable to regulation. Hell, regulated is written right into its text: A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
See. You dont have to be a constitutional scholar to conclude that this amendment is talking about the need for militias, not an individuals right to own a bazooka; and you dont have to be a historian to noodle out that the founding fatherswho revolted against a global superpowerthought that state militias were pretty cool.

It was only in the 1970s that the National Rifle Association basically invented the new constitutional theory that the Second Amendment conferred a personal right to own military grade weapons for self-defense.

Exactly. I need an AR15 to kill people that deny the Constitution. Its the social contract I agree to live under, I haven’t agreed to anything else. That means I come up killing.
That dusty old Constitution says so many inconvenient things for tyrants like Dems and Commies.
Fact is, we love it just as it is.
Citizens indoctrinated to foolishly ignore their 2nd Amendment protections as a consequence of desperate Democrats demonizing firearms to try to stay in power is why it is not safe to leave your home imo.
Remember in November 2020!
MAGA! Now KAG! (Keep America Great!)
There is a Natural Law right to self defense, and of others, whether from one shooter or a 200 member gang of shooters or club carriers.
Best weapon you can get legally or otherwise.
No human made law should abridge it.
From this guy no less:
“Elie Mystal, a black attorney and popular legal website editor, stated on December 7, 2016, that all black individuals that serve on juries should automatically vote to free any black person who had been charged of murdering or committing a crime against a white person, especially a white man, despite the evidence.”
Exactly.
Libs always want to deal with ‘needs’ and ‘feelings’.
“Elie Mystal, a black attorney and popular legal website editor, stated on December 7, 2016, that all black individuals that serve on juries should automatically vote to free any black person who had been charged of murdering or committing a crime against a white person, especially a white man, despite the evidence.”
The author.
“Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.” -James Madison, Federalist Paper #46.
Or,
“Ok, so we do need a professional army after all, the fact we have one doesn’t justify disarming the people.”
A.k.a.
“A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
“Its Time to Repealand Replacethe Second Amendment”
Translation: It’s time to start the Civil war part 2.
Clean and oil your arms.
It is not a woman it is a man who also said this:
Elie Mystal, a black attorney and popular legal website editor, stated on December 7, 2016, that all black individuals that serve on juries should automatically vote to free any black person who had been charged of murdering or committing a crime against a white person, especially a white man, despite the evidence.
Well, maybe they'll get the guns, but not in the way they expect...
Yes, it is beautiful its simplicity.
No. Your move.
Apparently he's frequent quest on MSDNC.
The NRA is the oldest civil rights organization in the nation. If anything they are too wishy-washy.
In other words, he asked to be killed in self defense...
“We should split the country before cw2.”
I agree. The Nazis can live in LA and NYC. Any left over get shipped to North Korea.
I would like to stick a bat in that bastard’s ear. Might tickle? That is one crazy M”f’r. Crazy and just plain STUPID!
This idiot doesnt understand the purpose of the Second Amendment.
I have to say that’s a man based on the five o’clock shadow. But is it really? Could go either way.
