What? I think that the founding fathers planned on the United States to continue to have a virtuous society and until just the past few decades, we were.Do you think their intention then was so that citizens could shoot each other up, when no form of tyranny is targeted?The founding fathers intended that the populace have the same weapons as the modern military. In the 18th century, it was the musket.Limit gun ownership to what the Founding Fathers intended, muskets. Problem solved.
It is no longer the musket today.
It was Colonial states versus the crown. What the FFs wanted was to balance the States against the Federal Government. Allowing the States to raise it's own armies outside of the Federal Influence. Today, the States will have the right. And after seeing the good of the State Militias during floods and more, I think it's every state's duty to have one. Not just to keep the Feds in line but to assist the citizens during hard times or emergencies. If every state were to do this, it would give the full meaning of the 2nd amendement and it would stop the various fruitcake interpretations of it from all sides.
You can't be serious ...
