OK, Sarah, take four million gun owners out of the Second Amendment fight and then tell me what the GOA will do then.

We have to work together against gun control because the real enemy is the Schumers and Kennedy's. But appparently, Larry Pratt has this moronic idea that if you continue to criticize the NRA, the members will bail and join his group.

Try to get a clue. The reason the GOA is so small is because they are so ineffective. They were chased out of Michigan and they're acting like a bunch of yappy little dogs in Ohio. The GOA has never stopped one gun control bill. Trigger locks? When the NRA had the votes, they stopped the Florida trigger lock law.

Prove to me that the GOA can do something. Have them sue the State of Kansas because of the Concealed Weapons law. Their state constitution has a Second Amendment so what is the GOA waiting for?

I don't see how you arive at such a narrow definiton of (military) arms since you are correct in your reading of Miller. Weapons of mass destruction such as war ships were often privitaly owned in those days. The use of the word "bear" rather than "carry" includes larger arms such as those that would be bourne by horses or ships.
