... "A lot has been said about the right to keep and bear arms as provided in the Second Amendment. Little has been said about the ‘well regulated militia’ portion. The wording of this amendment would seem to imply that the right to bear arms is dependent upon being a part of a well regulated militia. Let’s enforce the whole amendment."
"Each new gun owner will have to register, enlist, in the militia of the state where the gun was purchased. ... Those who refuse to enlist would lose their right to bear arms." ... -------
Submitter's Note: And who is going to go around and collect all those guns? And how many people will die in the process? And when you make your estimate, please recall Bill Clinton's rules of engagement as applied to the Serbs in 1999; the political leaders, bureaucratic support structure, media infrastructure and intellectual underpinnings of his enemies' war effort were legitimate targets of war. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
