Not sure where you got that info, but it's incorrect. For example the militia was NOT the ordinary rabble, very much was organized, with specific rules, and answerable to the commander in chief. Perhaps you've never heard of the Militia Act, which the Founding Fathers passed into law within 6 months of ratifiying the 2nd Amendment? Try REAL, documented history, rather than made-up fictitious NRA history. |

And sorry, snowflakes - but a ban on extended capacity magazines and military-patterned rifles *IS NOT* an infringement.
Take your dumb, misplaced "shall not be infringed" commentary and stick it. |

Yes, but under US code there are 2 classes of militias, organized and unorganized. So no matter how you want to interpret the predatory clause of the 2nd amendment grants all US citizens the right to keep and bear Arms. 246. Militia: composition and classes (a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard. (b) The classes of the militia are— (1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and (2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia. (Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 14, §311; Pub. L. 85–861, §1(7), Sept. 2, 1958, 72 Stat. 1439; Pub. L. 103–160, div. A, title V, §524(a), Nov. 30, 1993, 107 Stat. 1656; renumbered §246, Pub. L. 114–328, div. A, title XII, §1241(a)(2), Dec. 23, 2016, 130 Stat. 2497.) Historical and Revision Notes 1956 Act Revised section Source (U.S. Code) Source (Statutes at Large) 311(a) 311(b) 32:1 (less last 19 words). 32:1 (last 19 words). June 3, 1916, ch. 134, §57, 39 Stat. 197; June 28, 1947, ch. 162, §7 (as applicable to §57 of the Act of June 3, 1916, ch. 134), 61 Stat. 192. In subsection (a), the words "who have made a declaration of intention" are substituted for the words "who have or shall have declared their intention". The words "at least 17 years of age and * * * under 45 years of age" are substituted for the words "who shall be more than seventeen years of age and * * * not more than forty-five years of age". The words "except as provided in section 313 of title 32" are substituted for the words "except as hereinafter provided", to make explicit the exception as to maximum age. In subsection (b), the words "The organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia" are substituted for the words "the National Guard, the Naval Militia", since the National Guard and the Naval Militia constitute the organized militia. 1958 Act Revised section Source (U.S. Code) Source (Statutes at Large) 311(a) 32 App.:1.

Yes, very powerful, but doesn’t quite align with the percentages - “Black children and teens are more likely to be killed in firearm-related incidents than children of other races. Seventeen in 100,000 Black children died by gun in 2021, compared to approximately 3 in 100,000 White children or 1 in 100,000 Asian children, according to CDC data.” https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/10/02/us/gun-homicides-and-suicides-in-us-children-and-teens-are-at-a-record-high/index.html Maybe America should be focusing on the real problem. |

Just enforce what is on the books. Commit a crime with a gun add a minimum of 15 years on to the original sentence, with no parole for those 15 years. No prosecutor discretion on the gun add on charge.
Gun crime will drop dramatically. |
