And all militias should be “well regulated” - as in WORKING PROPERLY - not overly managed or burdened by inept, bureaucratic nincompoops.

Wow.... Hopefully you do know that the U.S. military protects the rights for people to be stupid and to say stupid things.

If it wasn't for our military, protecting your rights, you would either be dead or sitting in some "reeducation" camp.

ANYWAY!! I truly hope that this gun confiscation BS doesn't go past talk since if the Far-Left, with the support of the Left, could push this country into a Constitutional Crisis, which the country, as a whole, could change.

If people are talking about doing away with the 2A, what would stop others from doing away with the 1A and 4A?? Nothing!! So, with that being said, low information individuals need to think before acting on some false emotional impulse .

We know this.
Still on the bright side, since the 1988 ban, the UK hasn't had had any more idiots carrying out massacres with legally owned M1 Carbines and Type 56 semi-automatic rifles (a Chinese version of the AK-47).

Most don't know d!@k about guns and that assault weapons don't exist and assault rifles are heavily regulated and damn expensive. The semi-autos I own use a standard magazine it was designed for, 20 rounders. So again what is high capacity?

So spare me the hyperbole it's tiresome.

When are those on the left EVER going to look where the real problem lies? Instead of blaming and inanimate object that is a tool, nothing more nothing less.

A shame you don't know how the constitution works.

They will never come out and admit it but what it comes down to is that they place the value of their selfish desire to own these weapons over the value of human life. Of course they cloak this sick viewpoint in the trappings of the Constitution; they will protect us from government tyranny, need them for protection, need them for deer hunting, blah, blah, blah. We've heard it all a million times.

The way they look at it is that the odds of anything bad happening to them or theirs from someone using the weapons they worship is highly unlikely. It will surely happen to someone else.

The fact that you don't like them is apparent and the fact that you know absolutely not one damn thing about guns or how the Constitution works is equally apparent.

Instead, I'll tell you that the vast majority of those polled wouldn't even have been able to define "assault weapon," if asked.

How's that?
