Here's more of that twaddle about only the militia bearing arms.
Hellen did away with this nonsense. It's like a monster movie.....you think you've slain the creature it comes back and tries to eat you again. |

Re: Title
No, they wouldn't.
The public understanding of the people's right to arms rested on the fact that there were no differences between military arms and civilian arms. Arms WERE military arms. They are the only kind of arms that existed, which means that the people fully expected to be armed in parity with a standing military. Sorry if that puts a hole in your canoe, but that's the fact, Jack. |

| Sounds like they are busy trying to rewrite history to meet their agenda and not the facts. Facts be dammed. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
