"Anyone who pays attention to contemporary debates and discussions among this country’s 'constitutionalists' and 'patriots' about the meaning of the Second Amendment soon comes upon the contention that the phrase '[a] well regulated Militia' does not refer to 'regulation' by government. Instead, it supposedly means that the individuals who form a 'militia' on their own are themselves to put it into proper order, in terms of organization, equipment, training, and discipline suitable for the purposes of a 'militia' as they understand those purposes—without any control, direction, influence, assistance, or other participation by public officials." ... |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
