![]() "Steve Leyland" wrote in message ... wilbur do you support the availability of lethal weapons to the public? if so, why? First off, I deleted the crossposts in the headers. You weren't going to try netKKKopping me for excessive cross posts now were you? To answer your question I'm going to quote a famous document: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." Note the Second Amendment to the Constitution states the people have the right to bear arms. It does not say "firearms" it says "arms". The dictionary defines "arm," the verb, as "to furnish weapons." It follows that the noun, arms, means weapons. So any weapon people can bear is a right. This includes rifles, hand grenades, pistols, swords, spears (you can't discriminate against blacks ya know) knives, brass knuckles, etc. However, the liberal courts are constantly chipping away at the people's right to bear arms. So, as you can see, I DO support the right of the people to lethal weapons but only if they can bear (carry) them. In other words I'm not for the right of the people to have atom bombs, tanks, ships of war, etc. The why is self-evident. It's because the right to bear arms is Constitutionally guaranteed.
