“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed” reads the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
However, I ask: Why so many guns? Why high-capacity magazines and clips? Why military-style guns? Why rapid firing? Why concealed guns? I would be interested in hearing from anyone who can offer answers to these questions. |

"Why so many guns? Why high-capacity magazines and clips? Why military-style guns? Why rapid firing? Why concealed guns?"
Typical liberal ninny.
The Second Amendment guarantees our natural right to bear arms suitable for militia use.
The author assumes that there is a point zero where no rights exist, then proceeds to create a framework of limits on 'rights' the government may (not shall) grant.
Bass ackwards.

The second amendment really does not lend itself to wide interpretation. Those who "interpret" it want to twist it to mean something contrary to what it actually means. If you have a good dictionary you can find out what WORDS MEAN, and then you won't need an "interpretation."
Because you will COMPREHEND what it means. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
