Regardless of what nation launched the missile, I blame the nukes. Ban the bomb. Just send Iran, N. Korea notices that nuclear weapons have been banned. Uh, huh, that'll work. If nukes are outlawed, only outlaws will have nukes.

Yes, people are all good, they never do anything wrong. Human beings should never be responsible for their actions. The gun made them do the shooting! Stop the guns from forcing people to use them as a weapon.
SCOTUS was referring the the arms, not the person.
Despite Miller being a maker of illegal moonshine, and being caught with the sawed-off in the process thereof, SCOTUS never raised the question of whether Miller was connected to a militia - being a citizen, that was a given.
lawyers kill people, kill all lawyers...ooopppps, Willie Shakespeare already said that... I agree.
A descendant of Ambrose Burnsides, a civil war general famous for 2 things. Sideburns, named after his trendsetting facial hair and for being one of the worst Generals in American history. Apparently he had a very strong genetic influence on his ancestors.
This is so wrong and sad on so many levels. Not the least of which is the fact that this drivel came from an individual with a college and post graduate degree.

Has Appalachia changed that much? This letter is from West-By-God-Virginia of all places.
Do these people ever think through what they are proposing?
First of all, banning something doesn't make it magically disappear.
Secondly, the logistics involved with confiscating every firearm in the country are too staggering to contemplate, both from a manpower standpoint, let alone the legal and moral issues. How many cops really want to go door-to-door taking away lawfully-purchased guns from angry citizens? That would be the definition of hazardous duty.
That's because Mr. Burnside is unable to think logically. No doubt, he's a product of our gov't schools' indoctrination program, or maybe he's on the payroll of one of the various gun-grabber institutions. Regardless, he's a kool-aid drinking fool and not entitled to have any sensible person read beyond that idiotic remark.
An educated population, being necessary to the enlightenment of an informed state, the right of the people to keep and read books shall not be infringed.
Dear Jeremy:
Ever heard of a jinx? Go look in the mirror.
It's not the guns, it's you.
ancestors=descendants
This is the same ol' saw, devoid of logic, fact and common sense, and heavy on emotion. I doubt he'll win over any converts, maybe sway some of the weak-minded Gen Xers and Generation.commers to whom gun rights is a new issue. The sides are chosen, the battle lines drawn, and all there is left to do is whip up support for the rash of new gun control legislation that will come from this Socialist Congress.
I hope our side stands strong, but the pessimist in me doubts we will. So at this point, buy ammo, get any repairs done to whatever needs it, buy spare parts, and prepare yourselves mentally.
MOLON LABE!!!!!
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Oh now I get it. The guy who shot his friend had no money, the gun company, of course, is a cash cow...
So, in this case, blame the gun!

Liberal agenda garbage ping.
Translation: I'm a freaking LAWYER so I can dress up my mindless leftist drivel and wrap it up with some pseudo-legalese and therefore what I say matters.

Miller was never completed, actually. SCOTUS merely remanded the case for collection of further evidence. That the defendant was also a decedant, the case could not continue to an actual final ruling.
