From the headline we glean this simple "How stupid of me not to get it." understanding of the 2nd Amendment. "A well regulated militia......" in liblogic 101 is construed to extend to, if the militia is well regulated, then, by rote, the firearms they may have access to should also be well regulated. Boy are we stoopid or what?

ANY DC SOB or politician anywhere else in this country that betrays their oath by speaking or acting against the Constitution needs to be removed from public office immediately since they themselves do not pass Constitutional muster.

Carrying a weapon should have no more restrictive a requirement and then voting.

Joe, what needs to be well-regulated (not suppressed to zero) is the militia, just like the 2nd Amendment says.

Right now, we have gangs, BLM, New Black Panthers, Muslim neighborhood patrols. But, for most of America, there is little in the way of neighborhood or regional defense. The militia provided that in Colonial times; the government ruthlessly suppresses it today. A well-to-do person can hide behind a gated community, and a really rich one can afford personal bodyguards, but that’s not the same as a safe, self-defending community.

” Manchin told town hall attendees that “gun control should be governed by common sense.”

That was precisely the language used on the hidden video by a democrat operative explaining how the democrats will get rid of the 2nd amendment.

“He then criticized constitutional carry, suggesting that more criminals will carry, now that the law does not require a permit.”

Yep, because criminals are well known for struggling with the idea of violating the law before they violate it.

Criminals, by definition, do not regard the law. They have been carrying all along.

Manchin said, “Before, we always knew who we were chasing — the bad guy — but we knew most of the people didn’t have a gun concealed, and if they did, they were responsible.

IOWs only criminals are supposed to carry guns. This douchebag fits right in with the criminal cadre in DC. Thug Lives Matter!

If you take their guns, you can control their lives.

From cradle to grave.

Some things are worth fighting for.

Hey Joe! How do you reconcile “needs more regulation” with

“SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED?”

What kind of air is floating around in that head of yours?
I know why you say stupid things like this. You are stupid and, “you can't fix stupid!”

Joe “Moron” Manchin. Has a nice ring to it, eh?

Common Sense - Yes...but DC doesn't have common sense --- or any sense....

Mr. Manchin, my family's guns NEVER killed anyone, but it did prevent a robbery...

“well regulated”- at the time - meant in good working order. Only a gullible public - and boy aren’t we ever - would come to believe that our founding fathers would define a “right” not to be “infringed” and then suggest that the government is supposed to highly control it. You know, we get what we deserve.
