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 |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
