![]() "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.

right. This includes rifles, hand grenades, pistols, swords, spears (you can't discriminate against blacks ya know) knives, brass knuckles, etc. Just as to further avoid discrimination, people of all colors have traditionaly used spears in warfare. Whites, Asians, tribal people of all colors. What I find strange is that the weapons they are claimin to ban are the cheap swords that are really not made well for actual use but are easily affordable by the public while rich people that can afford weapons grade swords are being protected. It's like saying that pellet guns are being banned but really expensive rifles are okay. Don't get me wrong, they should all be legal but it seems a little hypocritical that they ban an item that is made for decoration and is little more than a toy but keep the real thing around. People that come up with such bans really have some other agenda in mind. In California, gun laws are aimed less at the capability of the firearm and more at the appearance of the firearm. Barrel shrouds and front mounted pistol grips are banned, so are flash suppressors but how does that change the capability of being able to kill someone? The fact is that you have a better chance of dying from a misdiagnosis by a doctor than being killed by a gun. Swords are little difference. The only difference is that you have to have a little more skill to be good with one. If not with a sword you can just as easily kill someone with a kitchen knife or a brick. Eventually we will all have to live in a Nerf world because it is safer and we will have mandatory hugging sessions daily with one person from ever race and religious background in our community.
