Biden demands ban on ‘assault weapons,’ high-capacity magazines in first speech to Congress

Organize more militia until we have no more security problems in our free States!

Anything organized by the state means their paycheck is signed by the wealthy elite, so then are suspect.
The whole point of a democracy is to have power integrated in the general population, and rely on citizen soldiers for defense.
A mercenary force, with a paid military or police force, is always highly suspect.

You have explained the first part of the 2nd Amendment pretty well. Now what is the last part ?

Since you did not add anything to the quote, it is hard to tell what you meant?
But what the quote means is that the government is allowed to spend tax money on an organized militia.
That says nothing about the unorganized militia, which is what the organized militia is supposed to be drawn from.
The protection of the state and the whole United States are the financial obligation of the legislature.
But in order to maintain freedom and individual rights, you also need an unorganized but armed general population.

This is why it matters:

I ask, sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people, except for a few public officials."

Ratification of the Constitution, Elliot, Vol. 3, June 16, 1788

That explains nothing.
The point is the 2nd amendment is implying the feds should not be preventing the general population from being armed because the feds might need some of those armed citizens some day, for national defense.
That does not reduce the fact the state, city and individual homes might also even more likely need armed defense as well.

The organized militia is what a government calls up or maintains, but that in no way implies the unorganized militia is not equally important to be armed and ready.

The whole people can be called up in what we would now call the draft, but their need for arms is not dependent upon being called up.
If you live in bear country, you need arms.
If there is an attempted rape, robbery, or murder, you need arms.
If any level of government becomes illegally corrupt, you need arms.

The heart of any democratic republic is always an armed general population.

“No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.” – Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Constitution, Draft 1, 1776

“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),

“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 John Cartwright, 5 June 1824
 
Criminals of the People are debarred the use of Arms all the time.

Subject only to the police power, the right of the individual citizen to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. (Illinois State Constitution)
 
Biden demands ban on ‘assault weapons,’ high-capacity magazines in first speech to Congress
29 Apr 2021 ~~ By Liz George

In his first speech before both chambers of Congress, President Joe Biden focused heavily on his administration’s gun control agenda, calling once again for “reasonable reforms” on firearms, including a ban on “assault weapons” and high-capacity magazines.
“We need a ban on assault weapons and high—capacity magazines again. Don’t tell me it can’t be done. We’ve done it before … and it worked,” Biden asserted in his speech. “Talk to most responsible gun owners, most hunters – they’ll tell you there’s no possible justification for having 100 rounds – 100 bullets – in a weapon. They will tell you that there are too many people today who are able to buy a gun, but who shouldn’t be able to.”
~SNIP~
In 2004, the Department of Justice National Institute of Justice issued a report stating that the 1994 “assault weapons” ban did not actually reduce crime.


Comment:
I’m sure that law enforcement all across the nation are busy today ridding themselves "Assault Weapons" and Large capacity magazines that hold more than seven rounds ( a very popular New York solution except for NYPD).
Most states with the U.S. have limits on the number of rounds that can be loaded in a rifle or shotgun.
For rifles hunting big game (Deer, boar, elk or bear) rifles are limited to 4 in the magazine/clip, or tube. For shotguns the normally loads are three in the magazine/tube and one round chambered.
Obviously both the president and his handlers know little about hunting laws or what is manufactured within the sporting arms industry of America.
While the popular AR-15 system is now calibered from .22 cal, 5.56/.223, 6.5mm, 6.8mm .300 Blackout, 7.62x39mm and .308 calibers.
The system created by Eugene Stoner like Kalashnikov has outlived his name.
Unlike the mlitary M4A1 Carbine is only manufactured for war in one standard caliber 5.56mm NATO and may be fitted with a selective fully automatic trigger assembly where the AR-15 is not. .
Dem politicians are paranoid that the military and citizens are going to start shooting them for their corruption.

In a perfect world their paranoia would be justified.

And?

It doesn't make any difference what Biden demands, only Congress can enact firearm regulatory measures such as an AWB, which isn't going to happen.

The thread is just more lies and demogogery from the right.
 
The defense and protection of the state and of the United States is an obligation of all persons within the state. The legislature shall provide for the discharge of this obligation and for the maintenance and regulation of an organized militia.

Fire season is already here.

We have a Second Amendment and should have no security problems in our free States. Don't grab guns, grab gun lovers and Regulate them Well!

I hope you’re just joking. Many Police departments are licensed to have weapons that civilians need to be licensed for too. It’s laughable how afraid you guys are that you have to make up shit

Aaaaaand he's back. How many iterations of your 5 talking points will we have to live through this time?
 
Insist those who get paid for it, do their job.

That a well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state, therefore, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed; that standing armies, in time of peace, should be avoided as dangerous to liberty; and that in all cases the military should be under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power.
Our well regulated militia are the guard units. “ well regulated” cannot exist outside of tax payer dollars. You count afford one. There are as many as 7-15 support personel for every soldier. Really, we don’t even have universal healthcare. Where would a militia person go to take care of his little boo boo’s.

it’s hilarious listening to you guys talk about the militia and proposing all you have to do is practice shooting to have an effective one. They need in depth communication, transportation, healthcare, clothing, food and lodging. Laughable. Go to a guard base and count the support personel

So, where's my government supplied AR-15?

Really?
Who is licensing Law enforcement?
Is it the State or Federal government that allows LEO to carry large capacity pistols and large capacity long arms?
