What is a Militia?

yep.. he uses a couple of lefty sites and doesn't give them credit.

I believe that the sc will do as they should and look at what the founders intended.  there is nothing to say that the peoples right could be regulated based on what the feds or states felt was a milita.

No one but him and arlo and some liberal lawyers think that the second is the right of the government to arm itself.

from the government being cautious about stepping on rights to japan not even thinking about invasion against an armed populace to burglars in the US being more afraid of armed citizens than even cops to concealed carry making stopping assaults on people...

all forms of tyranny against the individual and the state.

For any who care, Bingo clipped that first part from:

and the second part from:

Trying to set a good example for you but I see you're still not following it.

Don't be afraid to do some research; you'll probably be able to enjoy particpating in the discussions in a meaningful way if you do.

So is this why none of the scholars in this thread attempted to answer the questions in my last post? And preferably without cutting and pasting from others biased published ideological positions.

Better yet I don't understand why the posters against the 2nd amendmant aren't willing to speak in plain language and state they don't want anyone to have guns but the government because they are afraid of the .01% chance they might or someone they know might be killed or injured over the span of their lifetime. And this concern to them out weighs any law or original human right other than their own personal safety.

The government is always interested in gaining more control of it's monitary source and their activities. Individual human beings must first filter concepts through their own feelings, fear of personal death and injury historicly being one that has caused one group to do anything necessary to control the activities of another how ever unjust the focus even in the face of the targeted activity being lawful.

Anyone willing to address this posting?

Exemplify, Toad. I'll gladly follow your lead. Bandage your bruises. Shelve that ego. Dis-cuss away. If you can demand it ..... you can do it. :D
