lol. your English is even worse; nobody can take your appeal to ignorance seriously.You need to come of with valid arguments. We have a Second Amendment and should have no security problems in our free States.lol. our federal Constitution is very well expressed and not implied in any fantastical, right wing way."The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed."
- Thomas Jefferson, letter to to John Cartwright, 5 June 1824
"Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed, as they are in almost every country in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops."
- Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution, October 10, 1787
"...the ultimate authority, wherever the derivative may be found, resides in the people alone..."
- James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788
"This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty.... The right of self defense is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction."
- St. George Tucker, Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England, 1803
"As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms."
- Tench Coxe, Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789
“Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?”
-Patrick Henry, Debates in the Several State Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution
“(C)onceived it to be the privilege of every citizen, and one of his most essential rights, to bear arms, and to resist every attack upon his liberty or property, by whomsoever made. The particular States, like private citizens, have a right to be armed, and to defend by force of arms, their rights, when invaded.”
-Roger Sherman, Debates on 1790 Militia Act
"A nation which can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master, and deserves one.” —Alexander Hamilton
"the people can not be all, & always, well informed. the part which is wrong [. . .] will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. if they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. we have had 13. states independant 11. years. there has been one rebellion. that comes to one rebellion in a century & a half for each state. what country before ever existed a century & half without a rebellion? & what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms. the remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. what signify a few lives lost in a century or two? the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. it is it’s natural manure." Thomas Jefferson in a 1787 letter to William Stephens
So, the author of the Declaration of Independence, the father of the Constitution and a host of other founders / framers and legal authorities have weighed in on the Right to keep and bear Arms. I guess they are all a "right wing fantasy????"
YOU NEED SOME NEW MATERIAL
That made no sense at all in English, dannyboy. If you're challenging the validity of the arguments, they were upheld in the courts until an illegal act separated us from the constitutional Republic promised in Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution.
Maybe it's YOU that needs to get his head out the left's ass, quit sniffing that pungent aroma and say something valid, provable, and honest.
And for crying out fucking loud YOU NEED SOME NEW MATERIAL. Even people that agree with you are embarrassed by your posts. IF there is such a thing as a right wing fantasy, you feed it and keep them in power. Nobody wants the burden of trying to explain the horseshit that you post.
