Since a semi-automatic is semi, not fully automatic they included them in the list of weapons permitted for the public. History has shown that to have been a grave error. Because of the rapid fire capability of semi-automatics they are the weapon of choice for mass murderers, haters, and suicidal crazies determined to take down innocents in the process. The AR-15 with 30 round clips greatly magnifies the harm they can inflict before being taken down themselves. |

The author is suggesting that the purpose of the armed militia was to put down uprisings like Shay's revolt, not insurrection. Bizarrely, he doesn't understand that BOTH are correct and NOT mutually exclusive. Defending against unjustified uprisings would be a legitimate purpose .... but so would defending against a tyrannical government. Oh .... as usual, the author claims there is no right to have full auto, and even semiauto AR-15s are a mistake..... so there's ONE MORE SMART A $$ out there who does not understand what "infringe" means.
*SIGH!* |

In the minds of the deciders, disarmament of a free people is necessary to implement that new tyrannical regime that they so desperately seek. They never quit... |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
