"Lacking a definitive RULING by the USSC (US Supreme Court) on this specific issue....your point is invalid"

How Did the Founders Understand the Second Amendment?
That is what the Founding Fathers said.
Now all you have to do is believe in the Constitution, not just memorize it.


CONGRESS in 1866, 1941 and 1986 REAFFIRMS THE SECOND AMENDMENT
The Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment right to keep and bear firearms,
originated in the United States Congress in 1789 before being ratified by the States.
On three occasions since then--in 1866, 1941, and 1986--
Congress enacted statutes to reaffirm this guarantee of personal freedom
and to adopt specific safeguards to enforce it.


ON THE DAY BEFORE Thanksgiving 1993,
the 103d US Congress brought forth a constitutional turkey.
The 103d Congress decided that the Second Amendment did not mean what it said
("...shall not be infringed") and passed the Brady bill.

How the Brady Bill Passed (and subsequently - "Instant Check")
When the Brady Bill was passed into law on November 24, 1993,
the Senate voted on the Conference Report
and passed the Brady Bill by UNANIMOUS CONSENT.

~SIGH~ One thing about beating your head against a concrete wall (like continuing this stupid debate with you) is that it feels SO good when you stop. I herewith stop.

I don't NEED the SCOTUS to say anything about the Right to defend myself, my family my country from :

ALL ENEMIES BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC

That includes SCOTUS and any other traitorous judge.
