Bingo! Now you're finally talking sense...didn't know y'all had it in you.
Simple fact...too many Americans just can't be trusted with firearms so
the rest of y'all have to suffer for the common good.


How about you and your firearm? Been a few school shootings and even a
major knife attack in your lands. Get rid of firearms and knives. Oh
yeah, ban rental trucks, they have been used to mow down pedestrians not in
the street. It is a breakdown of society.

I'll have to parrot Mr Luddite and Harry here. The main purpose of a
rental truck is to move things...the main purpose of all your guns is to
kill things. Get it?


The main purpose of the 2nd amendment is to keep government in check.



That’s a laugh.


It meant it then according to the SCOTUS .... or at least they *think*
that's what it meant. Obviously the meaning has been debated for years.

Certainly doesn't apply in today's age but why ruin 38 percent of the
population's wet dreams?

In today's age we have deviants who will go into schools and kill kids.

The main purpose of the 2d Amendment, in my opinion, is to ensure the right of the people to bear
arms is not infringed. Amen.

Well, that opens up the age old debate, but your opinion is as good as
anyone else's. Only issue I have with your opinion is you have left out
the reason *why* the founding father's deemed it a right.

I think they just picked a reason that sounded good. They could have said 'for hunting' or 'for
personal protection'. The reason could be done away with. How many of the other amendments have a
'justification' clause.

Ah, but there was much debate about including the 2nd Amendment from the
Bill of Rights. Some argued against it. Some argued for it. For a
clearer understanding of what was on their wig covered minds, read the
two Militia Acts of 1792. The first gives the president the authority
to call up the state militias in the event of an attack or invasion by a
foreign adversary or Indian tribe. The second Act establishes
conscription and, to some, defines what a "well regulated militia" was
in their minds. It defines ages, (white men only originally), the
requirement supply and maintain your own musket, powder, ball, knapsack,
etc, all of which were not at government expense.
