You really need to read the Constitution.
Harry, I spend 99.999% of my time reading techie stuff and have not
read the Constitution since i was 25 yrs old.


Well, it isn't a lengthy document and most of it is pretty
straightforward.


Then how come the judges seem to have so many conflicting opinions regarding
what the Constitution says?


Simple. The writers of the first amendment were *not* talking about
pornographic DVDs. The defence lawyers were having to deliberately
misrepresent it to get their clients off. Obvious misrepresentation
leads to arguments from the prosecution.

I wonder if the writers of the second amendment were talking about any

They would of allowed those arms also. The 2nd was not about hunting and
fishing, was about the ability to toss a bad government.

Bingo!

Most people do not understand the importance of the 1st and 2nd
amendments and our ability to talk about our crappy government and
second to force them out of office if they wont leave when their term is
up.

They were talking about anything a State Government may use to shoot an
invasion by British soldiers.

Miserable course. Shot 108. Will probably never go back.
