“I am a fan of the Second Amendment. I am a firearms enthusiast. I’m a hunter. I enjoy target shooting. I also believe the Constitution of the United States gives us the right to keep and bear arms,” Lee said.
Once and for all, GUDDAMMIT, the Constitution does not GIVE us the right to bear arms, it GUARANTEES it.
He really thinks he's on the "right side," while accepting that transient opinion is the origin of liberty, and conceding that it is subject to majoritarian impulses.
"Living Constitution," anyone?
Well, you ain't on the right side until you actually understand the first founding principle of our country. Believing that it is the written word that endows basic rights ain't it. |

QUOTES
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) |
