One circut! That's a long way from game-set-match.

Original intent is a particular interpretation doctrine, there are others. Like religions, all make the claim they are the true way; all are probably wrong.

LOL, they really let you teach students? God bless America.

Have you ever heard of the Federalist Papers? The second amendment is clear, the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear arms shall NOT be abridged. The second amendment is second for a reason and the 14th applies it to the states. Comprende'?

Would you care to address the problem you face of the liberal scholar Lawrence Tribe being on my side here Pitch?

Let me guess, you're also opposed to "one nation under God".

I have small school children who are quite capable of understanding original intent merely by reading the writings of those who founded our republic.

Either your reading comprehension skills are not as good as theirs, or you are just plain too lazy to read.

The others are called judicial activism and it is where liberals and freedom haters use the courts to make law that can't be passed through state legislatures or congress. It's also a favorite weapon of ambulance chasing friends of yours like Geoff Fieger.

The court doesn't appear to share the NRA's veiw on the second ammendment at this time

You made this declarative statement and you are flat out wrong.

Now what I would like to know is if you teach your students this.

Do you?

I have posted a long list of clear quotes by our founding fathers on the clear intent of the 2Amd and the RKBA.

Please list your opposing founding fathers' anti RKBA quotes which render mine merely interpretational, or slink back to your hole like a cur.

Certainly a teacher of "American Government" must have quite a long list of anti-RKBA founding father quotes to counter mine?

Post them now, or get the hell off this board with your lies.
