so one could say the Christians who medal in politics are in fact causing the problems they detest...


their punishment dogma (war on drugs)creates drug cartels and the gun promotion helps the cartels arm themselves people of the future will be amazed at all this when such simple solutions to the decades of hostility exist

There are already restrictions on the 2nd amendment, as there are on other amendments.

Yes, thank goodness.

The founding fathers didn't make clear their intent with the wording of 2A, and that has had horrible consequences.

And they failed to predict the problems that would arise if every baby born on American soil would receive citizenship, and thus guarantee the parents could stay also.

The framers of the Constitution got a LOT right, but couldn't have predicted that in changing times throughout the centuries, some of the things that were true in the late 1700's would not be still true and apply today.

Our US Constitution is not a suicide pact. We need to be flexible on a very few things that were good when they were written, but have devolved into mistakes.

Yes, there are other hideous failures that feed into this.

I think most people would understand that they get transported in vehicles that people drive.

The majority of Americans probably have no idea how the Constitution is changed. They probably think all it takes is a vote from Congress and voila.the words change.

Sadly I am sure this is true.

So they did not say what they meant to say?

"Every baby born on American soil".......has been practice and actually is not Law.
It is twisted.
