[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]and Just like that, liberties are slowly stripped away while the cost of enforcement continues to rise. I see the founding fathers rolling in their grave. [/quote]

Don’t you dare presume to speak for the Framers. Unless you are part of a militia, you shouldn’t have any guns.[/quote]

I will speak for whomever I please as it is my opinion and my right to free speech.  See, you are again exhibiting the need to control and strip away rights.

You do note they use the word “militia” and not military or army, right?  Militias are civilian by definition.

Yes, the words “regulated” but also “not infringed” are used in the framers written words. So, it is a bit vague. However, here is a quote from Thomas Jefferson, the primary “framer”, in order to show at least his state of mind.

"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms ... only disarm those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed one."

By the way, he was quoting someone else here but he said it so it is reasonable to believe he believed it. [/quote]
