You could have reminded him that there are elements of Democracy in every nation but whether or not it is called a "Democratic Nation" depends upon the level/amount of Democratic principles each nation wields. If you compare the US with Sweden then I wouldn't think of the US as a Democratic Nation but if you compare the US with North Korea then I would. Actually, the US is not internationally considered a full Democracy in any case./—-/ India used to be a democracy, but the new leader is eliminating democratic policies.
... as well as The Democratic People's Republic of Korea.Democratic People's Republic of South Korea... You like to play games?

The 2nd refers to arms. Back then regular people, who had the money, owned artillery, and sloops of war.The words AR-15, Semi-automatic handgun, high capacity magazine, or even shotgun do not appear anywhere in the Constitution either.
So are you saying these things aren't covered by The Second Amendment?
According your own logic the only "arms" covered by the 2A should be flintlocks.
They couldn't bear them even if they wanted to?The 2nd refers to arms. Back then regular people, who had the money, owned artillery, and sloops of war.
No government agent tried to stop them.
Why is that?
Ummm. That's the point. When the 2nd was written no government agent ever tried to disarm ANYONE. They didn't even try to take away their artillery.They couldn't bear them even if they wanted to?
Republic is the FORM of our government. It operates FUNCTION under Democratic ideals.We stopped being a Republic in 1913. It took time, a couple of amendments and abuse of the fiat currency to acclimate us to it.
/——/ Uhhh no. No specific type of “Arms” was mentioned in the 2nd amendment.The words AR-15, Semi-automatic handgun, high capacity magazine, or even shotgun do not appear anywhere in the Constitution either.

they wrote it that way because they wanted us to have any arms that could be used against us,,/——/ Uhhh no. No specific type of “Arms” was mentioned in the 2nd amendment.
Which would naturally infer " armaments of the day " which went onto further stipulate in a well -regimented militia ( aka today's National Guard ) .. Which is why they even bothered with that amendment. It wasn't about civilians at all.but national defense because there was no federal army at the time./——/ Uhhh no. No specific type of “Arms” was mentioned in the 2nd amendment.
/——/ Nope. Wrong again. Since the first gun was made there was a rush to make them better. Google the Puckle gun, and learn something,Which would naturally infer " armaments of the day " which went onto further stipulate in a well -regimented militia ( aka today's National Guard ) ..

Yes. I only brought up 2A in reference to all of this "strict constitutionalist" bullshit.Which would naturally infer " armaments of the day " which went onto further stipulate in a well -regimented militia ( aka today's National Guard ) ..

I already know about it. Basically it was the forerunner of the machine gun/——/ Nope. Wrong again. Since the first gun was made there was a rush to make them better. Google the Puckle gun, and learn something,
Only sad when mis-reported.Conservative activist Jack Posobiec joyfully hailed the “end of democracy” at the Conservative Political Action Conference, further emphasizing Republicans’ apparent desire to completely overthrow America as we know it.
MAGA Republican Pledges “End of Democracy” to Rabid Cheers at CPAC
Republicans at CPAC 2024 are openly vowing to take down democracy.newrepublic.com
Now MAGA are not even hiding their contempt for our democratic institutions.
As Maya Angelou said, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them.”
Note: I know one of the first posts from a MAGA will be we are not a democracy. Yes, that is the exact sentiment I would expect from someone who doesn't care if our democratic institutions are eliminated.
This is a very sad commentary on the complete ruination of conservative thought.
/——/ All civilian weapons were first designed for warfare. DERP.I already know about it. Basically it was the forerunner of the machine gun
Once again.a weapon of war , not meant for civilian use.

/----/ Example please.Yes. I only brought up 2A in reference to all of this "strict constitutionalist" bullshit.
MAGAt's seem to love to supposedly "quote" the Constitution and pretend to be literalists.....until of course you quote some part that LITERALLY doesn't even say what they imagine it does, then it's "b-but that's not what it MEANS!"
not to mention the 2nd A is clear its specifically for weapons of war,,/——/ All civilian weapons were first designed for warfare. DERP.
/----/ Example please.
/----/ "( aka today's National Guard )" NOPE. that's your gun-grabbing opinion.Which would naturally infer " armaments of the day " which went onto further stipulate in a well -regimented militia ( aka today's National Guard ) .. Which is why they even bothered with that amendment. It wasn't about civilians at all.but national defense because there was no federal army at the time.
/----/ They were the same weapons.not to mention the 2nd A is clear its specifically for weapons of war,,
I swear leftists are leftists partially because they are incapable of understanding anything in its full context, they have lost all ability for independent thinking, critical analysis, intellectual honesty or the use of metaphors or humor as illustration. This New Republic article underscores all that beautifully.Conservative activist Jack Posobiec joyfully hailed the “end of democracy” at the Conservative Political Action Conference, further emphasizing Republicans’ apparent desire to completely overthrow America as we know it.
