By Hogg’s logic you have no right to free speech unless you own a printing press.

Gun control activist David Hogg tweeted Sunday that Americans “have no right to a gun,” suggesting that the right to keep and bear arms applies only to members of the militia.

Curiously, the Supreme Court holds differently, you pimple-faced fake-story-telling fascist dickhole.

“...a states right to have what is today the national guard.”


The national guard was established in the early 20th century. The Founders must have prescient to include it in 1791. In addition, the Constitution already mentions the existence of state militias, so why bother to guarantee their existence in the 2nd Amendment?

Competing with Greta for the title of the world's most obnoxious youth “activist.”

Well I'm glad "Chief Justice" David Hogg has now settled that constitutional question once and for all! / sarcasm off

(By the way Davy boy, the actual Supreme Court destroyed your "milita" argument over a decade ago in DC v. Heller.)

“the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.””

What part of this statement does the little s*it not understand?

With or without the woke beard, this thing is just odd, really odd to look at.

Someone remarked he’s the male version of Greta, yes, I agree. They both have something missing upstairs. They are both pushing commie ideology. They both need to be in a reeducation camp somewhere near the north or south pole (of the moon).

Well let’s see...
https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title10/subtitleA/part1/chapter12&edition=prelim

§246. Militia: composition and classes

(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.

(b) The classes of the militia are—

(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and

(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

In other words, Everyone is a militiaman, organized or unorganized except...
§247. Militia duty: exemptions

(a) The following persons are exempt from militia duty:

(1) The Vice President.

(2) The judicial and executive officers of the United States, the several States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands.

(3) Members of the armed forces, except members who are not on active duty.

(4) Customhouse clerks.

(5) Persons employed by the United States in the transmission of mail.

(6) Workmen employed in armories, arsenals, and naval shipyards of the United States.

(7) Pilots on navigable waters.

(8) Mariners in the sea service of a citizen of, or a merchant in, the United States.

Charlie Reese said it best years ago...
“A well educated elite, being necessary for the security of a free state, the right of the people to become educated shall not be infringed!” does NOT mean that only the Elite can become educated!

You really need to read the 1982 Senate report on the RKBA. I have a paper copy.

https://guncite.com/journals/senrpt/senrpt.html

“The conclusion is thus inescapable that the history, concept, and wording of the second amendment to the Constitution of the United States, as well as its interpretation by every major commentator and court in the first half-century after its ratification, indicates that what is protected is an individual right of a private citizen to own and carry firearms in a peaceful manner.”

19th century cases
16. * Wilson v. State, 33 Ark. 557, at 560, 34 Am. Rep. 52, at 54 (1878).

“If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the (p.17)penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege.”

17. * Jennings v. State, 5 Tex. Crim. App. 298, at 300-01 (1878).

“We believe that portion of the act which provides that, in case of conviction, the defendant shall forfeit to the county the weapon or weapons so found on or about his person is not within the scope of legislative authority. * * * One of his most sacred rights is that of having arms for his own defence and that of the State. This right is one of the surest safeguards of liberty and self-preservation.”

18. * Andrews v. State, 50 Tenn. 165, 8 Am. Rep. 8, at 17 (1871).

“The passage from Story (Joseph Story: Comments on the Constitution) shows clearly that this right was intended, as we have maintained in this opinion, and was guaranteed to and to be exercised and enjoyed by the citizen as such, and not by him as a soldier, or in defense solely of his political rights.”

19. * Nunn v. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846).

“’The right of the people to bear arms shall not be infringed.’ The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State.”

And the SCOTUS case that led to the Civil War..

Are Negros citizens...Dred Scott
“It would give to persons of the negro race, who are recognized as citizens in any one state of the Union, the right to enter every other state, whenever they pleased.... and it would give them full liberty of speech in public and in private upon all subjects upon which its own citizens might meet; to hold public meetings upon political affairs, and to KEEP AND CARRY ARMS wherever they went.”

Yep. That’s the kindest thing you can say here. Like the rest of the Bill of Rights, the 2A was meant to protect the people from oppressive government.

If as Hogg argues, the militia is the National Guard, then the 2A would offer no protection from the government. After all, the National Guard is part of the government.
