I would just like to go on record to say that while I support the 2nd Amendment....I am against supporting the rights of the 2nd Amendment.
The NRA and gun nuts always get amnesia when it comes to the "well regulated" part.
And for those who like to parse Constitutional language, I ask which phrase appears first in the Constitution/Bill of Rights:
"... Separation of church and state..."
- or -
"... the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed..."
OH OH, I KNOW THIS ONE...
The First Amendment doesn't say anything about separation of Church and State. Here it is...
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
The Second Amendment is about tyranny, not hunting. Might I be defending myself against a "well regulated militia" (armed by the State) some day?
It's happened before, right after the King of England ordered civilians to surrender their weapons.
So much for Gun-Free-Zones. History is such a Muther Fucker.
