. . . doesn't that mean that the government has to buy us all guns because of the 2nd amendment?

Any progressive leftists want to chime in?

And if the 2A only refers to muskets, the the 1A press freedom only refers to n manual cast iron printing press, with movable type. No electricity, no offset, no software typesetting, no radio or television. The press, is an actual press and nothing more.

POWDER!!!

I want free powder...and maybe primers, Yeah, powder and primers...and no Hazmat charges.

Everyone ought to have a right to free powder and primers.

Well, classically speaking other than abortion, all other rights are and exist before government and government is supposed to exist to protect those rights, so none of them require someone else to pay for your right.

now if your soviet, then that is another thing as the soviets and progressives claim that rights come from the government god and what god gives god can take away or even make special rules as to when your allowed to have them.

this is a fundemental difference in our constitution vs the others in that ours limits government theirs usually limits men ruled by the state

Yeah, and a $100 or so for a library card after the background check.

And don't forget the three day waiting period to buy a magazine or newspaper or check out a book.

Well, of course. But I am illustrating absurdity by being absurd, to coin a phrase.

The question I have posed is one that should be asked of pro-abortion progressive leftists.

The founding documents task government to protect rights, not to pay for them.

>>You are holding progressives to their own standards. Very foolish.

Foolish because we don’t do it seriously. This is why they win. There is nothing too absurd for them to get offended over.

I didn't miss a point; I made a point.
