As a (but not the only) reason for the recognition of the right to keep and bear arms.

The uninfringed Right is necessary for the preceding phrase to be possible.

That was a decent answer.  But there has been much discussion over that awkward phrase for years.  As is, it could be parsed and interpreted in different ways.

But thanks for the insult.  It can help me when I am formulating my questions and replies.

Apologies Joe, that wasn't intended specifically to you, it's a general observation. If there's any other "interpretation", it's ideologically motivated.

So what did they mean when they mentioned a well regulated militia?

If you don't know how to answer that, then go ahead and dodge the question.

The People have a right to keep and bear (carry on their persons anywhere) arms.

A well regulated (ready and equipped) militia (a non-standing army made up of the People) being necessary (in the eyes of the Framers) to ensure a free state (not a "state" like New Jersey) requires that the People be armed and ready to serve at all times. Weaponry wasn't to be held and distributed by the Government.

Why anyone with average intelligence can't parse this sentence logically is beyond comprehension.

What do you think it means?

Hint: It doesn't refer to enforced bureaucratic rules.

"regulated" doesn't mean what you think it does.

What relevance does being a Community Organizer have to being President?

Apparently more than half of the voters and 95% of the media thought that a long murky history as a job-hopping rabble rouser translates into being an excellent Chief Executive.

Personally, if I saw someone applying with a degree from Wayne State I'd want to hire them.  I'd be impressed they survived the experience.  They wanted to hire me at one point.  The day after my interview one of the faculty was shot by his own student.



Let's all give Dr Steingar a hand!

And the hits keep coming!  Trump parts ways with his campaign manager.  Bad move, or too little too late?
Different guy needed for different job. He got Trump the win on the nomination, now it's up to new guy to kick Hill's cottage cheese ass.

Shit like this needs to stop. There's no excuse to be NORDO in this day and age, in well used airspace. There's also no excuse to be a dumb asshole and put lives at risk by landing downwind without announcing that you're being a fucktard.

Don't hold back, tell us how you really feel!

You didn't address the question of: Do False Flag Operations Occur?  Simple question.
Invalid argument.  Now you're just making an argument to be heard. Bye.

Give up already, Marvin?

I love how the conservatives loudly and frequently champion the US Constitution and its second amendment, but seem to frequently forget the first.

I love how the liberals loudly and frequently champion the US Constitution and its first amendment, but seem to frequently forget the second, which is there to protect the rest of them.

Are you agreeing with Manchin?

I think that he is pointing out the irony.
