“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” reads the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
However, I ask: Why so many guns? Why high-capacity magazines and clips? Why military-style guns? Why rapid firing? Why concealed guns? I would be interested in hearing from anyone who can offer answers to these questions. |

"Why so many guns? Why high-capacity magazines and clips? Why military-style guns? Why rapid firing? Why concealed guns?"
Typical liberal ninny.
The Second Amendment guarantees our natural right to bear arms suitable for militia use.
The author assumes that there is a point zero where no rights exist, then proceeds to create a framework of limits on 'rights' the government may (not shall) grant.
Bass ackwards.

The second amendment really does not lend itself to wide interpretation. Those who "interpret" it want to twist it to mean something contrary to what it actually means. If you have a good dictionary you can find out what WORDS MEAN, and then you won't need an "interpretation."
Because you will COMPREHEND what it means. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
