Somewhere in West Virginia, or at a cocktail party of the New York Times editorial board, a conservative Democrat or “NeverTrump” Republican is looking at this article’s headline and thinking, “Oh no! Don’t say that. That’s exactly what the Trump people want you to say!” It has become an axiomatic feature of political gravity that we cannot have a frontal and honest conversation about the Second Amendment because it will whip ammo-sexuals into a frenzy and cause them to vote Republican.

The Nation? Really? Katrina vanden Heuvel's communist rag?
Please.
Memo to vanden Heuvel (et al): "The right there specified is that of 'bearing arms for a lawful purpose'. This is not a right granted by the Constitution. Neither is it in any manner dependent upon that instrument for its existence." - U.S .v Cruikshank (1875) |

Badly mangled, indeed... by the anti gunners. Read the State Constitution provisions that existed at the time the US Constitution was ratified: the intent of the 2nd Amendment is clearly an individual Right!
DE - "A person has the right to keep and bear arms for the defense of self, family, home and State, and for hunting and recreational use."
ME - "Every citizen has a right to keep and bear arms and this right shall never be questioned."
NH - "All persons have the right to keep and bear arms in defense of themselves, their families, their property and..."
PA - "The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves ... shall not be questioned."
RI - "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." |

TO REMEMBER |
| In the end, more than freedom, they wanted security. They wanted a comfortable life, and they lost it all — security, comfort, and freedom. When the Athenians finally wanted not to give to society but for society to give to them, when the freedom they wished for most was freedom from responsibility then Athens ceased to be free and was never free again. — EDWARD GIBBON [On ancient Athens] |
