[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like we have to pretend that some anonymous yo-yo thinks the founders didn’t want Americans to have ammo to use in their guns. [/quote] 24 cartridges, 20 balls, quarter pound of powder. [/quote] Context matters. That’s what a member of the unorganized militia (defined in Federalist Papers #61 as “the whole of the people”) were expected to have [i]on their person[/i], when called to assemble. The [i]minimum kit [/i]of a volunteer Citizen Soldier to bring with them when showing up. It obviously does not mean that’s all they were “allowed” to possess. [/quote] However they clearly believed that was enough for someone to possess. And, it was for militia use. Militia as defined during the Founding Fathers time was not individuals or some random band of ridgerunners. They were answerable to the government chain of command. [/quote]
