"Contrary to popular belief, Mexico’s constitution has its own version of our Second Amendment. However, few private citizens own firearms. Federal laws have severely restricted the ability to own and carry weapons to soldiers, police, trained bodyguards, and a few others who can make it through the miles-long gauntlet of the application process. If a Mexican citizen can survive the background checks, the mountains of paperwork, the half-dozen required personal recommendations, and the expense, they are limited to buying guns with low stopping power."

IOW, they don't have a version of the 2nd Amendment. That's what the Left would do to us if we let our guard down for a second.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

“IOW, they don’t have a version of the 2nd Amendment. That’s what the Left would do to us if we let our guard down for a second.”

They have the version that “progressives” in this country want for us. Completely without teeth, and subject to the whims of any legislative body or bureaucrat.

The old Soviet Constitution had lots of “rights” for all its people. They also had a clause that overrode all of those “rights” if it were in the interest of the government to do so... which rendered them useless.
