So does the phrase "keep and bear arms." What gives states the right to infringe upon a person's constitutional right to bear arms? New Jersey is composed mainly of these types of individuals:
(1) Minorities and other slaves of the Welfare State who are the primary victims of gun violence and who are ignorant enough to believe gun laws will protect them.
(2) Misguided soccer moms.
(3)Fourth and fifth generation Democrats (including Irish and Italian Catholics) who blindly follow the party line.
(4) Lawyers (who think a right to abortion can be gleaned from a penumbra of privacy rights but who find no constitutional support for the right to keep and bear arms).
(5) Jews who believe only the State should have guns.
(6) Teachers and public school administrators.
Sorry if I offend anyone. I fit into at least one of those categories myself.
