What if the First Amendment were repealed? What do the huffandpuffings think happens in the type of socialist utopia they so desire.
The 21st Amendment repealed the 18th Amendment.
As much as most politicians hate America with its Constitution and Bill of Rights, I don’t think they would dare try this. It would be the opening shot in Civil War II.
Scary. The part about trying to differentiate between sides. I bet a lot of the other side will become instant believers in the 2nd Amendment (especially the unarmed ones).
I viewed “regulated” in that time not so much as “trained militia” but and in an “organized chain of command”.
To me, the second amendment protects the right to form a militia apart from the control of the government, but also the right to use weapons of your own choice/provision. There was not prohibition of owning a cannon, or even having enough material to support your own army (as a private citizen) as a check on the power of the state as long as your intention was not to overthrow the government of “We the People”. It was to check those who would corrupt the government of “We the People” against those very people.
Every single gun law is unconstitutional. Every one. The government has no more right to put restrictions on gun ownership than it has to restrict your breathing. And no, they can’t legally require a background check.
Liberal pipe dream. When we are backed against the wall and our freedom, families, and lives are threatened... what else is there to do but fight and fight like our lives depend on it because it does.
We may not win but our dead stinking flesh in the hundreds of million will make their broken lives worthless.
Are they ready for that fight?
You can’t repeal a God-given right. But whatever. Come and get ‘em.
That’s why they have been purging like stalinists for the past 6 years.
What if pigs could fly?
Thank you Smokin’ Joe. Too many keep talking about the 2nd as if that is what gives us the right.
they would love that fight because they think they won’t have to participate in it.
Stop baiting people.
Then they will pay dearly for that mistake.
The BOR spells out what is inalienable and cannot be take away.
Please study some history of our country and learn the difference.
Not meant to be sarcastic, but really, your comment is in need of some further study of what we're about.
Right. Private armies are allowed under the Constitution and under God’s law. It’s an outrage that there are restrictions that impede private citizens from owning anything the government can own. That includes nukes. I completely trust that private patriots could responsibly handle such weapons. If the government doesn’t agree, then right there is the reason why we should be able to have them.
Hellers attorneys were Neily, Levy, Healy, Possessery, Huff, and Alan Gura who actually argued the Heller case before the Supreme Court.
I assume you mean lead attorney Alan Gura.
What is the bonus prize?
