New Boulder, Colorado AR-15 law seen as TEST for nationwide gun registration
The National Sentinel ^ | 12/13/18 | USA Features

Unconstitutional: Whenever we see the Left moving to implement a new rule or law governing the use, handling, or ownership of firearms we are reminded of the very simple language of the Second Amendment, which reads in full: A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

Liberal and conservative scholars and lawmakers have debated the meaning of “militia” and whether or not the founders meant that the Second Amendment applied only to organized state military forces. But others have noted that based on historical data and references such as the Federalist Papers, a series of published documents written by a few of the founders explaining every part of the Constitution, it is clear the amendment applies generally to “the people.”

There’s another part of the amendment that is also crystal clear — where it says unequivocally that the “right …to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

Yep, but a whole lot more to discover. My Dad was born in Holland in 1904 and came to the U.S. with his parents and two brothers around 1913. I hired a genealogist about 30 years ago to do research in Holland, but only paid for him to find the grandparent lines. I'd like to be able to learn more about the collateral ancestors if I can.

The last time that I looked, I do not need a permission slip to exercise any of our Constitutionally Protected rights. Nor shall I seek one.

They’re on drugs, and they want to believe that the rest of the USA is like their little ‘burg.

I’m not talking about affordability, it’s practical in sense.

That was my beef with Bork’s response to the privacy issue. It accepts the premise that the Constitution is a comprehensive list of our rights rather than one of their powers. Tie goes to the runner.
