Large print, for the thinking impaired:

"What is the militia? It is the whole people, except for a few public officials."

~George Mason, 1788

George Mason IV (December 11, 1725 – October 7, 1792) was a United States patriot, statesman, and delegate from Virginia to the U.S. Constitutional Convention. Along with James Madison, he is called the "Father of the Bill of Rights". For all of these reasons he is considered to be one of the best loved "Founding Fathers" of the United States.

Now, come back and tell us that the Father of the Bill of Rights is an idiot, who didn't know what he really meant by militia.

Your first instincts regarding that one were correct.

It’s time to break out the troll pics.

I am begging you please to ignore robertpaulsen.

He is a troll who’s only goal is to disrupt all RKBA posts by hijacking them.

His method, which has worked brilliantly so far, is to make outrageous claims and bait you into wasting your energy trying to convince him and educate him. Which is not possible, since it is not his goal.

His goal is to hijack the threads. He does so successfully anytime people respond to him.

I personally know how hard it is to let such ignorance just go without succumbing to the temptation to educate. But trust me, you only play into his hands when you fall for this temptation.

The only way to prevent him from consistently hijacking these threads is to completely ignore him and to not respond to any of his posts, no matter how outrageous or how badly he gets your goat.

I’m begging you to please ignore him in the future, for the sake of reasonable discussions on these RKBA posts. Thank you.
