Anonymous Coward User ID: 9107938 United States 12/23/2012 11:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed" They are going to claim this was written when militias were used to defend this country against foreign enemies but now that we have an army, the 2nd amendment is null and void but that is BS. It does not state the MILITIA has the right to bear guns, it says the PEOPLE. I read it as: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State AND the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. or A well regulated Militia, WHICH IS necessary to the security of a free State AND the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. |

The military cannot replace the militia. The militia is every last man, woman, and child capable of defending their community from an invasion. #2 What part of SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED do you not understand!!! I can't stand liberal anti-gun tards! It's not that they are suicidal. It's their desire to deny me my right of self defense. I stand against anyone who's actions could lead to my rape, mutilation, and death. Last Edited by samanthasunflower on 12/23/2012 11:20 AM |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 30505507 United States 12/23/2012 11:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | IMO, since it states SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED, they can not deny anyone the right to own a gun for any reason. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9107938 I think you are correct. My friend has a psycho neighbor that is on all kinds of meds. The cops know this and also know he shoots a gun periodically from his front porch. This is in the city. They have never questioned his rights to own guns, nor have they confiscated them. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 20901334 United States 12/23/2012 11:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That is pretty straight. No law, rule, code or regulation can supersede the Law of the land (the Constitution(s)) Therefore, only a jury can, AFTER a conviction of a violent crime, take away ANY right and only then for a set amount of time. The only other way is a jury finds one guilty AND the sentence chosen by the jury is DEATH. Otherwise, the sentence is for a given, set time and when its up, its up, all rights are restored. The role of the Judge is to control both the prosecution and the defense and make sure the Jury is in control and hears all testimony and evidence in the case. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 26490972 United States 12/23/2012 11:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Bill of Rights is not a list of rights granted to the people by government. The Bill of Rights is a statements forbidding government from infringing upon natural rights among them the right to self-defense. However, the ability of government to infringe upon our rights begins only when exercise of those rights infringes upon another's natural rights, i.e. crime against persons or property. They disarmed and incarcerated criminals back then as well. Now days tey appear to want to do the opposite. They want to disarm or incarcerate the people and give the criminals and crazies free reign. Re-distribution by force? |

The jury system can be corrupted, as we know from present and history. But, it is how it was set up and should be still. No VICTIM, no CRIME. That is a maxim of law and has been for recorded history. |

Umm because you are missing the point? A well regulated militia is another way of saying the right of the people to organize themselves against any external threat to their property and security. Basically, its like saying the people have the right to organize from neighborhood watch groups to emergency search and rescue teams to militias if necessary to fight off organized threats against them. The right to bear arms is a derivative of this concept, the concept that the people have the right to organize from within and that the government cannot infringe on this right or attempt to replace this natural right of the people. Problem is, most people are so lazy they want the government to do everything for them. I hate to say this but the spirit that drove the entire of philosophy of natural rights appears to be dying off like the dinosaur. I'm not advocating its death just lamenting the fact. |

Other then that you have to get your charges dismissed reduced expunged etc. The whole thing is illegal though for them to take something which is unalienable.

I just maintain that they should have kept it country-simple, with the non-commaed wording I used above, or something similar. No way could that be misinterpreted. |
