About as much as the First Amendment says about quills and parchment, and Gutenberg printing presses. <br /><br />Militias? I am a militia of one, and I regulate my militia quite well, thank you very much. Hint--the Second Amendment doesn't say anything about "the right of the <em>militia</em>," but instead describes a fundamental human of <em>the people</em>. As it turns out, I'm one of those, too. The fact that I'm also a well regulated militiaman is simply the reason I am necessary to the security of a free state.Kurt '45superman' Hofmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091930034162667742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-69402312855930777282014-09-16T13:56:56.612+02:002014-09-16T13:56:56.612+02:00Yeah, maybe they'll get back to the original i...Yeah, maybe they'll get back to the original intent, you know, the 18th century concept of militia and the use of muskets.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-81331685702216905702014-09-15T19:58:44.622+02:002014-09-15T19:58:44.622+02:00I know I "said it right"--I generally do...I <i>know</i> I "said it right"--I generally do.<br /><br />Hopefully, future Courts will take a broader, less watered-down, and thus more accurate interpretation of the Second Amendment.Kurt '45superman' Hofmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091930034162667742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-90016912105844866472014-09-15T19:43:35.980+02:002014-09-15T19:43:35.980+02:00"Under this Supreme Court," you said tha..."Under this Supreme Court," you said that right.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-44266791951265490002014-09-14T15:42:48.025+02:002014-09-14T15:42:48.025+02:00Although I'm sure it's possible to kill wi...Although I'm sure it's possible to kill with nail clippers and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx1XhlPIeEM" rel="nofollow">tea cups</a>, I think it would be tough to successfully argue that these implements are sufficiently useful as "arms" to fall under the umbrella of the Second Amendment, particularly with this Supreme Court.<br /><br />Guns, on the other hand, can be quite useful as arms, and can, in the right hands, even be used to kill with some efficiency.Kurt '45superman' Hofmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091930034162667742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-67230225640025025492014-09-14T10:19:45.711+02:002014-09-14T10:19:45.711+02:00"Fundamental human right of the individual to..."Fundamental human right of the individual to keep and bear arms." Ha. It's no more a fundamental human right than it is to "keep and bear" a nail clipper or a teacup. Keep relying on the bastardized version of the 2nd Amendment, that's really all you've got.
