Yes but the founders didn’t expect a Detroit or Ferguson type of populous.
He had pink eye as part of his pink-o soul. Another overpaid load-head.
Actually Mr. Costa’s.....yes they did.

He should learn some history. People could, and did buy artillery, automatic weapons etc. through the early 20th Century with no restrictions. We still can now but need a license.
Many of them do.
And the 1st Amendment does not apply to email or Twitter either because the Founding Fathers could not have envisioned the internet
Yeah - but the last one is too high maintenance for me, plus it’s one and done...too pricey for my budget.

Dear Bob,
What happened at Lexington and Concord? What were the British trying to accomplish when the first shots of the Revolutionary war were fired?
Mostly true. Larger towns often had a full time constable, and citizens served mandatory shifts as watchmen under the constable. But as time went on people often shirked doing their shifts, and problems in cities grew as cities got larger. By 1749 Philadelphia set up a system of Wardens, who could hire full time watchmen. The new watchmen were paid a salary paid by a tax. That was the first urban police force in America, though it wasn’t called a police force yet.
