"W P Dixon" wrote in message ... Does anyone else see a pattern with the Democratic Party. Seems they preach and preach about freedom, but always do their best to take it away from us against The Constitution. It's frustrating! Stop with this garbage about the Democratic party. Those wanting to take our freedoms and everything else from us come from both parties so cut the crap and be prepared to defend those rights from assault no matter which party they come from. Problem is that the Dems are constantly fighting so hard to try to remove from us one of the most important means by which we can defend our rights. And yes, I *AM* referring to the RKBA. |

The right to keep and bear arms as expressed in the 2nd Amendment has been translated by Scotus as not absolute. The right has been tied to the state militias as not an individual right. Of course, I agree with Jefferson's interpretation of the right to bear arms, being as the government always moves to get too big for its breeches and should sometimes be made to look down the business end of a gun barrel. However, I don't think Jefferson anticipated that the barrels of the people's guns are puny and minuscule compared to those of big brother. |

The right has been tied to the state militias as not an individual right. As far as I know, this is not correct. The only statement of SCOTUS on this matter with which I am familiar is a statement to the effect that "the right of the people" definitely is an individual right. This is based on the fact that the only two other places in the Bill of Rights in which this phrase occurs cannot by any stretch of the imagination be interpreted otherwise. To what case are you referring? George Patterson If you want to know God's opinion of money, just look at the people he gives it to. |

I don't see anything confusing about the 2nd Amendment. Of course
the Libs will read it to their advantage. It protects two things: "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." Now the Libs will have you believe that the only right we have is to bear them collectively under the banner of a militia. Not so. Otis "From my cold dead hands" Winslow " jls" wrote in message t...
