Graham Martin of Woodland Hills, please KYS. Actually, this fool needs to just stay there or go back to the U.K. There (CA) needs to be in a separate country. CA, NY, and a handful of other places are lost. Smart and serious people need to be working towards splitting this thing up as peacefully as possible. The alternative is not peaceful at all. It’s far more divided now than it was in 1860 and for a lot of the same reasons.

The origins of this amendment, ratified in 1789, are clearly rooted in the desire to form state militias to frustrate any perceived overreach by a stronger federal government. The progenitor was the English Bill of Rights Act of 1689, which had a provision allowing the people to bear arms and possibly protect a newly formed Parliament against a misbehaving monarchy.


I suspect the write has the words but not the music that goes with it..............................

To be fair, some important people do agree with him.

And one reason was their smarminess ... but our Founders were too dignified to put that one in writing. :)

It’s a good thing the early Americans had guns, so they could kick the stupid Brits out.

If the Left would have had one more vote on the Supreme Court in 2008, this would have been the holding in District of Columbia v. Heller.

Dear Graham:

Perhaps your bloodsucking British relatives never told you how, during WWI, when all your limey friends were off fighting for ‘King & Country’, your government emptied the mental institutions and conscripted the former patients. Your government sent these armed idiots to Ireland to put down the Easter uprising. They had orders to kill every male child over age 14, and they murdered thousands.

Are you still wondering why we won’t let go of our God-given right to keep and bear arms? It’s because of people like you and your disgusting ancestors. Come and Take Them Pussy.

Failure to adhere to The Constitution and love of Marxism are at the root of our problems. [Though fewer limeys might help]

"beg the Queen for protection"

The Britts begged the US for personal arms prior to our entry into WWII.

US citizens loaned them arms and then they dumped them into the Channel when the war ended.

A stupider proposition would be impossible, especially in Californication

The author must work for the LA Times.
