Americas love and ownership of guns is the only thing keeping them at bay.

It's pretty straight forward, I don't know why people are confused. Thomas Jefferson went as far as to say that the reason we need the right to bear arms is to defend ourselves against a government that has grown too powerful. He also believed that revolution was inevitable every twenty years or so. We are a couple of hundred years behind schedule, but we will catch up.

5* and a bump + karma.

Thanks! Fact is...there is actually a 1% undecided. I'm sure the number of people who truly do not know what the 2nd amendment says or why it was put in place is actually much higher than 1% of the country. That's the sad part and as Berry Soetoro gets rid of the consitution piece by piece, more liberals and other assorted idiots will follow Holder in his statement that no American has the right to bear arms.

I can't believe GLP'ers aren't jumping all over this thread.

Good Morning Idgits & everyone here. Amazing results.

It's from 2007, Moran.

I noticed it was from 2007 also. HOWEVER if you take the time to follow it for a few minutes (instead of using your time to call people names), you will see that votes are still being made. 10,000 more people have voted just this morning alone.

Don't be too hard on him.

He's very elated that he finally got to use the word "moran."

Thank you! Votes are still being cast and over a 5 year period people re still telling the government that we know what the 2nd amendments means. The only people who don't are communists and socialist liberals.

I noticed that too. I mean, if you are going to call someone a 'moran', at least spell the word correctly.

Actually 'moran' is correct. It' GLP specific :) Kind of like a term of endearment to tell someone their acting dumb. However...his calling me that was definitely a noob move becuse I already knew the poll was older...the point was...ten million people voted, and continue to vote, in favor of the 2nd amendment and the right to bear arms! That is just awesome.

Ah, then I stand corrected. He was correct in his spelling. lol Yep they continue to vote. As I had said in a couple posts up, 10,000 more, just this morning.

They have been trying to take them away for years. It would make martial law an easy take over along with the New World Order.

I don't like guns but when Japan tried to invade us they were outnumbered 6 to 1. What if the Russians decided to invade?

Plus, Hitler is the perfect example of why you SHOULD demand rights to have guns. For those who don't know, he simply asked people to turn them over and said it was for a good cause. So people did and Hitler easily took over because his army was the only one with guns. We HAVE to learn from history!

In no particular order, early American settlers viewed the right to arms and/or the right to bear arms and/or state militias as important for one or more of these purposes:

deterring tyrannical government;
repelling invasion;
suppressing insurrection;
facilitating a natural right of self-defense;
participating in law enforcement;
enabling the people to organize a militia system.

bigger story is that they actually have a poll and are questioning it.

The 1st ammendment has no backbone without the 2nd

What a moran, your stupid vote CAN NOT change MY right to bear arms. It was written a long time ago by men of high caricture.For idiots they forsaw running this country into the shit pile of countries long gone.

I vote with my 357.

Thank God someone else noticed that. The Bill of Rights was demanded by the States and the people before agreement to adopt the Constitution for the United States. They list protections of not a granting of rights.

Rights do not come from government, only God. When a government tells you they are the ones giving the "right" what they are really doing is placing themselves in the place of God and merely allowing an activity they might deny tomorrow.

God has the right to kick your ass too. Vote on that.

Today, when a concerted effort is made to obliterate this point, it cannot be repeated too often that the Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals—that it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government—that it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizens’ protection against the government.

Don't forget folks the second amendment makes no distinction
between different types of weapons.
So it is a right to bear any arms you want howitzers, machine guns, nukes and all.
We the people are supposed to have access to all arms.

Damn straight!

If you voted "Yes", you're clearly a fucking idiot and have no idea that the government (Constitution) is not and should not be what gives us our rights. The rights are inalienable from the Creator.

So if you feel you have this right to own guns, you should vote "No". As I did.

I'm sorry, but you're completely stupid and ignorant.

The second amendment does NOT guarantee NOR does it GIVE anyone the right to bear arms.

The right to bear arms is an inalienable right, that exists prior to any manmade laws and is bestowed upon the people by God, or the creator, or whatever you want to call it. It CANNOT be given to human beings by other human beings, because it is already exists before any human actions.

The bill of rights simply enumerates our rights, it does not guarantee them, nor does it give them.

Our right CANNOT BE TAKEN AWAY. Do you get it now?

Anyone that votes yes on that poll has been completely brainwashed and deluded by the elites that want to enslave the planet. They WANT you to believe the Constitution and the government gives you your rights. That way, they can take them away.

That is EXACTLY correct! Most people don't understand that the federal government is meant to have very limited power. That absolutely was the intent of the founding fathers.
