I didn't see this posted. Last month from Politico Magazine, but seems to just have showed up on Yahoo.

The distortions, lies, misrepresentations, and total lack of knowledge shouldn't be surprising, but it always does surprise me.

We live in a world gone insane, Animal Farm insane.

Ah, more anti-constitutional garbage from Politico, the premier phony news site, where all the failed writers from the Washington Compost eventually end up.

I have no doubt they’ll soon be hosting screeds from Jennifer Rube and that idiot from the plum line.

“By calling attention to ‘a well regulated militia’, the ‘security’ of the nation, and the right of each citizen ‘to keep and bear arms’, our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny which gave rise to the Second Amendment will ever be a major danger to our nation, the Amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic civilian-military relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason, I believe the Second Amendment will always be important.”

-Senator John F. Kennedy,rightwing extremist, April 1960

“Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be very carefully used and that definite safety rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of citizens to bear arms is just one more guarantee against arbitrary government, and one more safeguard against tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible.” -Hubert H. Humphrey,bitter clinger,Guns magazine, February 1960, p.6

How the NRA stopped us from ignoring the Second Amendment.

Michael Waldman doesn’t appear to have read any of the writings of the founders on arms.

The Founders never intended to create an unregulated individual right to a gun.

Where does this braindead dildo, Waldmann, get his information? Mein Kampf? The Communist Manifesto?

If these chodes would do their homework and read the Founders’ words on the 2nd Amendment, they couldn’t write tripe like this.

Hey Mikey! Try to focus and I’ll ‘esplain” it to you. Who were the Bill of Rights intended for? I won’t mention any names but their initials are THE AMERICAN PEOPLE you moron. Now, why would the founders think it necessary for the government to have the right to form the National Guard? Are you stupid or what?

So the butterfly effect didn't intend for the 2nd Amendment to allow people to own guns.
I bet these people pee their britches when they see a "real gun", and not in a movie.

I cannot imagine their next try at throwing "" at the wall.

You are full of crap an uneducated lout.

Drunk with reducing your fellow man to subservience of the ruling class.

You are as wrong as a three dollar bill.

This is a liberal jackass from the NYU “School of Law”. He’s pimping his phony baloney book about how the Bill of Rights were intended for government use only. What a jerk.

Son and I went shooting today.

Just finished cleaning the 22 pistol, 22 rifle, .380 pistol, 9mm pistol and the AR.

Was a great day.

One thing about the left is that they always give you plenty of warning about what they are up to.

They keep hammering away at the 2nd amendment, just like global warming, and normalizing homosexuality.

Out of all the nonsense they push, disarming the American public is really the most important. Once that is done, they can ram whatever they like down our throats.

"...The Founders never intended to create an unregulated individual right to a gun..."

Why would someone think that? (That was a rhetorical question there...they are libs, and that is enough)

Anyone could own a gun in the 18th century in the colonies, if I am not mistaken. Why would they not think everyone should have an unregulated right to own a weapon, if they did at the time?

Chucklehead liberals like this one are useful to remind us that when the left says “gun control” they mean firearms confiscation.
There’s nothing in between.
Molon labe.
