Keep and bear = own AND carry

What’s hard or unclear about that?

The Supreme Court evidently uses different definitions than we do.

From the 6th Amendment: “In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury...”

Did you notice the word “all” there? That means in each and every case, right? No, the Supreme Court has said. You only have the right to a jury trial if you’re facing more than six months imprisonment. So if the Feds decide to charge you with a crime carrying a six month sentence, no jury of your peers for you. Your fate is up to some judge. And if that judge is having a bad day, you’re screwed.

It’s disgusting.
