My generation of kids from that war and the baby boomers who followed us into the 1960s and the Vietnam War era were the last to be drafted and therefore the last actually required to perform our Second Amendment right to bear arms. We didn’t think using a gun was something sacred, just something we had to do — temporarily. (We didn’t call a rifle a gun, of course, and some still remember the vulgar doggerel we had to recite for the platoon sergeant if we did.) |

The N. R. A. "discovered" the second amendment a bit after you idiot libtards discovered gun control. THEY were late to the game.
Don'tcha just love libtard whiners? I wonder what cheese they like with their whine? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
