A second argument revolves around the definition of "the people." Those on the N.R.A. side believe "the people" means "all persons." But in Article I we also read that the people will elect the House of Representatives and the determination of who can vote will be left to state law, in just the way that militia service would remain subject to Congressional and state regulation A total, out and out lie and he knows it. The Supreme Court has ruled that the "people" of the second amendment are the same "people" as the ones in first, fourth, and tenth amendments. Guess he missed that one or either he not only reads them like he wants to he also only reads the ones he wnts to.
He must think we are little children and that he's reading a fairytail to. You do not grant a state or goverment rights you grant them power. The whole sum of the Bill of RIGHTS was to make sure certain rights where retained by the PEOPLE.
PEOPLE that's you and me not, Mississppi and the United States.
I agree ....Why on earth do the libs think the Founders were hiding some deep dark interpretation? Same thing with the first amendment. We have these old courthouses with the ten commandments that somehow are now anti-Constituional. But back then, before the ink was dry on the Constitution.....these things were commonplace. As was prayer in Congress, schools, etc.
