The Founder's Intent of the Second Amendment was based on Lexington-Concord... as well as 700 years of fighting to be free starting with the 1100 Charter of Liberties.

He tried to, the plan backfired.
Lexington and concord, America’s first gun grab
Lexington and concord, America’s first gun grab.........and we all know how that turned out
We kill off over a MILLION pre-schoolers every year in this country; and very seldom is a shot fired to stop it!
If I remember correctly, weren’t the Brits outraged about American riflemen, and their penchant for picking off officers at 300 yards? They were pretty harsh with captured riflemen. The Pennsylvania rifle was the ‘Assault Weapon’ of the 18th century, but I don’t see them on the Ban List.
“[A] bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular, and what no just government should refuse.”
-— Thomas Jefferson December 20, 1787
Banning certain types of firearms because they didn’t exist in 1787 is no different than censoring the internet because it didn’t exist then.
Thanks for the photo. Great start to a Sunday morning.
It’s a Duty to abolish any government that doesn’t have the citizens best interest .
This way wont work anymore for western governments. Much easier with dictator controlled govts.
States have the power to abolish the federal Govt. yes, the states get a lot of handouts , but it is the federal govt that Cannot exist without
the states.
Finding enough soldiers willing to face courts-martial and a sentence of death for
treason under the UCMJ is a longshot.
Statistics say %25 would most certainly shoot at citizens if ordered.
Our govt is just a bunch of replaceable people casting votes in congress.
If every member of the federal govt were to die at the same time They would just be replaced with new people who would do the same things.
In a dictatorship govt is not replaceable .
It can only be abolished.
Let’s start by not voting for either republican or
democrats. Everybody’s afraid to do this non violent take over. Cowards!
I would love to use those gun control statistics at the end of this article. I wonder, however, if they are all totally legitimate. Does anyone know where he got them?
Not if their not in control.
Don’t let fear stop you from taking back govt.
Don’t you think the colonists had a lot of fear and uncertainty in their actions?
I’d give up the Internet right now if it meant taking back control of the govt.
I never said not to vote.
Of course vote .
Do for some one that has your best interests.
Republicans and democrats do not have the people’s best interests.
Too many people lack the courage to take control of their govt.
Good cop , bad cop, oldest trick in book, and citizens are lining up for hours to keep it that way.
Yep, it actually happened and didn't end well for the King:
My republican congressman is one I happen to like.
You have nothing but circular logic that seems oddly anarchist to me.
If anarchist like Thomas Jefferson ,
Then I take that as a compliment :)
