This issue could have been avoided if legislators did not avoid their obligation for the common defense.
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.
We already know the unorganized militia is worthless to the security of our free States.
You are full of crap here. Armed citizens, organized or otherwise, provide protection and security against Scum like those who riot in our nation's Urban Heck Holes.
Totally worthless to the security of our free States.
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!
How does walking out in the street without a weapon make me more secure? If someone comes up to me with a firearm, or a shiv, or (when I become older and frailer) ready for a strong arm robbery, how can you say I won't be killed or seriously injured?
If very few people are carrying weapons, but an armed robber comes up to me, and I tell him to "fuck off, loser" how can I be assured that he will just let it go?
