The problem with the 2A as a right, is we once again allow the collectivist's to frame the debate. Our forefathers argued that by listing our rights in the constitution, it would one day be argued by government that those were the only rights we had. I give you the passed 30yrs! Collectivist's frame the debate by argueing with you about a right being conferred or not. Seeming to forget the last four words."Shall not be infringed". Which changes it from conferring a right, to prohabiting a government from infringing on a pre-existing right. A right independent of the constitution. Something bestowed by nature, or natures god. I ask no-one for the right to defend myself. As no-one with a room temperature IQ would. And if the day ever comes that i need a ruling from a,"wise latina woman", before i can..........Nature's god help us all.........mthead
The US Constitution was drafted by truly extraordinary men. Men who risked everything of value in their lives, who were tried in the fires of adversity; these are the sort that crafted the most successful government in the history of mankind. An honest scrutiny of their writings will reveal a recurring theme: that men can govern themselves best when government itself is restrained.
These wise men of integrity did everything in their power to design a system where government served under - rather than lorded over - the people. Only by confining the government could the sweet fruit of liberty be fully savored. And nowhere has liberty ever reached a higher pinnacle than here in America.
The Founders saw the second amendment as a safety valve, an assurance against the possible failure of all the rest of their design. Man’s liberty and inalienable rights (none more paramount than the right to defend oneself) could, failing all else, be defended by force of arms.
In the end it simply comes down to this: The master is he who is armed. We The People were intended to be the master of our government, yet the servant now seeks to disarm the master. This being a matter of trust, Leviathan has demonstrated that he is unworthy of such trust.
I absolutely and unashamedly believe that every single gun law is unconstitutional. Anybody who wants to own a gun should be able to. Even violent felons (they’ll just kill one another with the result being less criminals around). Kids, old ladies, soldiers on base, postal customers, airline passengers, you know… all those usually disarmed in our present society. Obviously I have libertarian views. I hold in utter contempt: all politicians, most government employees, globalists, all varieties of the political left, the church of abortion, hoplophobes, collectivists, and earth worshippers. I reserve the right to revise this list without limit – as the magnitude of the problem seems to be expanding at an exponential rate!

I’ll keep my guns thanks.
