Right to bear arms; military subordinate to civil power. The people shall have the right to bear arms for the defence [sic] of themselves, and the State, but the Military shall be kept in strict subordination to the civil power[.] :vendetta: [/quote] just shows you they violate their own law, they forget they work for the people, tell them to stick it and vote them out of office.
