My family and I have legally owned guns for the protection of our households for as long as I can remember, and I believe that every adult citizen has the right to legally own a firearm for protection or hunting.
But when the Constitution of the United States was written in 1787, I'm sure the Founding Fathers could not envision that, in future generations, Americans would be using the Second Amendment to justify ordinary citizens owning military-style semiautomatic weapons or bump stocks that enable a person to turn a gun into such a destructive weapon. |

They envisioned the citizens being armed with the same level of weaponry as any standing army. Shucks, privately owned cannons were common ! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
