The second amendment states that a well regulated militia is necessary for a free state, and also the right for people to bear arms shall not be infringed.
| No, it does not. The 2nd Amendment, as it was passed by the House and Senate, does not state that a well regulated militia is necessary for a free state. Quite distinctly, it includes a clause that simply asserts that a well regulated militia is necessary for a free state, and then follows it with the statement that the right shall not be infringed. Is the simple assertion that a well regulated militia is necessary for a free state a right that you claim? It is not a right, it is a clause, and the right that follows is dependent upon it, therefore indicating that arms are to be used as part of a well regulated militia. There is really no other rational way to explain it, no matter what you have been told. But, I have never said that I think the Constitution is all that. Look at how much they fucked up that one. Why should we trust anything they said?

| I do not want to start a flamewar, but in the interest of posterity: this is the second amendment: "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." I said: "The second amendment states that a well regulated militia is necessary for a free state..." "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State," and: "... and also the right for people to bear arms shall not be infringed." "...the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State"
| is not a right, is it? Therefore, the right that is granted subsequently follows from it. Posted by Wilky The only problem is that liberals didn't exist back in the 1700's. People didn't need or want the government to take care of them back then. What a noble idea. We've twisted the constitution to our modern day wants anyway so really, it a meaningless piece of paper at this point.
| They didn't need or want the government to take care of them, because they took care of themselves and each other, by doing things like forming and participating in well armed militias, so as soon as you get your militia going, you will have fulfilled your responsibility that earns you the right to bear arms. Or are you just going to leach off of the rest of us and take your entitlement? But, more to the point, they people who founded the country WERE FUCKING LIBERALS, you idiot.

| I think liberal meant something different then than it does now. I somehow doubt most of the liberals I know today would start an armed revolution against our government due to the aforementioned pushing of gun laws. ;) Also, I think that the gun laws are would be better if more states employed reciprocity. For example, when Seventh and I moved to MA we were licensed drivers and gun owners. I have conceal and carry in one state and FID in two. Now I have to start the whole process all over again (for about $400 + all of the tangential expenses such as gas to get to all of the paper filings, time off from work and practicing to pass that target test), despite my proving worthy in two other states and having no record. In contrast, when I moved to MA my driver's license took 10 minutes to transfer over (yay, off peak hours!). This just seems like common sense.

| The fact that you compare our founding fathers to modern day liberals just shows how fucking stupid you really are. Modern liberal thinking wasn't established until the 19th century. Go look it up on Wikipedia, I think you can probably figure out how to do that for yourself. Here is a quote for you in case you can't figure it out. "The "process of redefining liberalism in terms of the social needs of the 20th century was conducted by Theodore Roosevelt and his New Nationalism, Woodrow Wilson and his New Freedom, and Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal. Out of these three reform periods there emerged the conception of a social welfare state, in which the national government had the express obligation to maintain high levels of employment in the economy, to supervise standards of life and labor, to regulate the methods of business competition, and to establish comprehensive patterns of social security."

| | | let me put this out there before everyone gets worked into a frenzy. I live in the most heavily armed county in New York State. Yep, Essex County NY has more rifles, shotguns and pistols per household than ANY OTHER county in NY. Clinton and Warren Counties are close 2nd and 3rd. Why? People like to hunt here, I like to target shoot. It's a good skill to have. See everyone wheels out there own reason for gun laws and it just always struck me as funny. Ok, everyone who had a post on this topic, how many of you actually own a firearm or have owned a firearm?
Why did you have it? What regulatory hoops did you have to jump through? As for the constitutional provision for keeping and bearing arms, i am all for it. I feel that the private citizen should at least know HOW to use a firearm if they did not want to own one. Why? I think that the average citizen should be called upon to defend their country, domestic or foreign aggressor and that includes politicians that need to be deposed. I think that is what those rebellious found fathers had in mind when they included that provision. If you recall your American history class, the British tried to confiscate rifles from the average Joe in the days just before and just after the Revolution started. Do I personally own an weapons? No. Not because I am making a socio-political statement. It's because I have a wicked temper and could easily lose a gasket or two and cap someone. It's just better to not have firearms at the handy. Now, here is the bitter bitter irony... people that have obtained their weapons legally are not the ones on the six o'clock news. it's the folks that got theirs off a street corner, or the trunk of a car, or some other shady outlet. Some of you had mentioned friends that ended their own lives. I want to put this delicately, but you can't be responsible for everyone. If that person had truly been on a mission of self-destruction, they would've found another method if the gun had not been available.

| Sorry, I can't take the time to read your whole post, since I am driving as fast as I can to get a beer with Ophie before bed. From the bit I read however, I'll just mention how I didn't compare them to "modern liberals." I meant that theyb were liberals like me, who were opposed to the presiding government's religious afectations and oppression. Also, I should point out that I like guns and gun ownership, for the liberal reason of keeping the goverment in check, not for the flawed and grammaticaly meaningless justification of the 2nd Amendment. Anyway, have a nice night.
