I’m writing because I agree with people who want to protect our Second Amendment rights. At the time it was written it was to give peasants the right to fight the British.

The weapon of choice at the time was a musket, which took at least 30 seconds to load and was not at all accurate.

Would the writer of this article also agree that the first amendment only applied to printing presses of the period and not modern ones? I am getting highly annoyed at people who seem to want to use this ridiculous standard on the second amendment and none of the others. When will people be willing to admit that if you curtail one of the amendments in the Bill of Rights none of them are safe?

It took me only 1 minute to read that twaddle.
That's a good thing, because it's one minute I'll never get back.
