What these so called idiotic judges fail to realize is, if you chip away at the foundation of the house you live in long enough it will one day collapse on top of you.
If you read further in the Federalist Papers, you will find that the Founding Fathers were against any standing military in the time of peace and it was their intention that the entire populace be armed always to be called upon in the time of war.
Even more interesting is that during WW-2, our gov't was basically broke, they had to call upon citizens to buy War Bonds to fund the war, and literally ask for dontaions of items for the troops. I can recall a woman on an antique show who had a pair of old binoculars from WW-2. The apprasier said they had no value ordinarily, but since she had produced a letter from the Gov't that showed that they were loaned to Gov't for the war, the battles that they had been used in and thanking her for the use upon thier return, they had significant historical value.
There was no income tax and the gov't didn't bilke it's citizens out of their money only to squander it on bloated buracracy as they do now..
BTTT
Well, if they must rewrite it..Muttly wouldn't mind if they just changed the Original to ALL CAPS.
It is not magic thinking. The law professors, who are refugee lawyers from the real world, teach the anti-individual rights left dogma of the 2nd amendment. The 9th is consistent with their socialist professors.
If you think universities are the last bastion of communism, then law schools are the last bastion of the commie elite inteligencia.
Perhaps we need common sense law school control. Make some of these law professors work for a living. Regulate the number of law schools permitted in a state.
