The Second Amendment is the right to bear arms not guns. Guns are the weakest of the arms available in today's world. If you want to have the rights granted in the Constitution, you should be able to have all arms available to the militaries of the world.
Those who are fighting for just guns are a bunch of wooses. They are not fighting for the full rights of the 2nd amendment. They are ignoring and trampling on the 2nd amendment
1. arms - weapons considered collectively. implements of war
1. So you want to have a Bill Clinton 'It depends on the definition ition of the word 'is'-type discussion to question whst the Founding Fathers meant by 'arms' ... or, more likely, what liberals / Democrats want to define themselves as today?!
2. "Guns are the weakest of the arms available in today's world."
Ummm, what was used in the assault on this school and the murder of 19 kids and 2 teachers? What has been used at almost every single school shooting? What is being used daily in the record-setting gun violence and murders in Chicago?
To say guns are the weakest of the arms today the day after 19 kids were killed seems a little bit ignorant, for lack of a better word.
Despite all of the laws passed,restrictions instituted, Chicago and other liberal cities have proven illegal guns are still ready available and capable of setting records for numbers of people killed.
Disarming law-abiding people is not, however, the answer because all that is accomplished is making many, many more victims, sheep for the wolves to prey upon with no way to defend themselves.
Attempting to disarm the mentally ill psychos, 'gangstas', and murderers isn't working. How about spending more money on protecting our kids.
The FBI was aware of several of the last couple of shooters, excluding this one, it seems so far. They were on watch lists were questioned...and released.
Still the sick, cowardly SOBs came for our kids...at schools where there wasn't sufficient security, for kids who had no armed protectors to save them.
Guns are not 'weak',, depending on who is using them and specifically for certain purposes.
Guns were the perfect weapons of choice for a sick SOB who wanted to attack an unsecured, unprotected school to kill defenseless children as young as 8yo.
Perhaps I misunderstood the point you were trying to make. If so, I apologize.
