2nd Amendment

Do you know what the 2nd Amendment actually says?

>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.

People on Sup Forums love to regurgitate the last phrase, but they fail to recognize the 2nd Amendment is purely about the militia. The militia should not be infringed, yes, as long as it's also well-regulated. It doesn't mean you as an individual have any special right to have military assault weapons.

>the right of the people to KEEP and BEAR arms

That alone is.enough for me to say fuck you

Fuck you and your fucking burger tier reading comprehension skills. Allow me to break that sentence down for you.

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, (In other words, a well regulated militia is needed to secure a free state)

FUCKING COMMA ,

The right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED< DESPITE NEEDING A WELL REGULATED MILITIA.

DO YOU GET IT NOW? FUCKING SAGE AND GO HANG YOURSELF!

And for good measure, anyone else thinking of replying need only look at the thumbnail to see JIDF shareblue written all over this thread. Sage again.

In 1791, a Militia was a street gang... basically.

in 1791 there was no regulation or bureaucracy like there is now.

A militia was basically a gun club or horse version of a biker gang.

The intent was that people buy guns and would organize themselves in case the British, French, or Spanish decided to invade them while the country was recovering from the Revolution.

Blackwater... militia

NRa... MILITIA

Crips and Bloods... unregulated militias engaging in illegal drug dealing and racketeering

Rent-a-cop Security: militia

Neighborhood Watch: militia

If you a member of a Neighborhood Watch program you should be able to buy automatic weapons. You are an organized militia that is looking after your community.

So the 4th amendment only applies to militas as well? Good to know the cops will no longer need warrants.

OF COURSE

The SCOTUS, who are in charge of interpreting the Constitution, disagree with you.

>the people
>keep
>bear

What did they mean by this?

> WELL regulated
Regulated by the people. If they wanted the government to regulate it would say “poorly regulated”
