Speaking of NRA-bullsh!t - that’s what that statistic sounds like. I don’t believe that for a second. I don’t know a single person who owns a gun.

It was written after they just finished fighting a tyrannical government in 1791, just years after the Revolutionary War.

Well regulated.

The term well regulated in the context of language usage in the 1790s meant well prepared. So that would mean people would need to have appropriate weapons with which to train and become well prepared/proficient.

But good try.

"well regulated militia"

1) Not interpreted as an individual right till modern times.

2) The amount of gun crime and ease of straw purchasing makes the current status of "well regulated" questionable

3) Modern weapons mean individuals would need to own nukes, missiles, etc. to have the power to counteract the government. Nobody wants that and if you do, you're a lunatic and should have your sanity evaluated.

The Founders fought their government. Our entire country (the colonies) fought their government.

The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only 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 to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
- Thomas Jefferson, Commonplace Book (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria), 1774-1776


“I ask who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers."
- George Mason, Address to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 4, 1788


“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country."
- James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789

“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.... The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun."
- Patrick Henry, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 5, 1778

"The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms."
- Samuel Adams, Massachusetts Ratifying Convention, 1788


“If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, and which against the usurpations of the national rulers, may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success than against those of the rulers of an individual state. In a single state, if the persons intrusted with supreme power become usurpers, the different parcels, subdivisions, or districts of which it consists, having no distinct government in each, can take no regular measures for defense. The citizens must rush tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system, without resource; except in their courage and despair."
- Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28

You know the maga(t)s have lost when they start pulling out scripts written like 400 years ago by dead white men who owned slaves.

Harris supports gun confiscation, mandatory sale to the government.

Keep trying, lyin’ MAGA sh*tbag!

That’s NOT a lie. It’s in her campaign platform. That’s one of the biggest reasons many people whom I know support her, support her.

Because she has PROMISED that she will do gun confiscation. If she doesn’t, she may be a 1-term president herself. She made a promise. She damn well better keep it and do confiscation.

I’m enthusiastically voting for Harris, but yes, I am a little disappointed that she’s a gun owner. But obviously she’s a responsible one and I get that it’s politically expedient for her to have one. So whatever.

She has a gun because she has needed one. Once a prosecutor you face lots of threats. She thinks people have been coming to kill her. And she would be right as this happens all the time to DAs. Get real.

So only special government employees should have guns?

We will start with the assault rifles first. Then it will be easier to gradually move on to other types, until we eventually get rid of every last one.
