Are you even reading what the !@#$ I'm typing? Doesn't anyone notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

NFA, 1934 FFA, 1938 GCA, 1968 CCA, 1990 Brady Bill, 1994 The introduction of the Brady Bill is really the first time the NRA fought for anything, and even then it passed by a wide margin.

If it's not applicable then change it. There's a method to it spelled out in the document itself. And that's not how the Constitution works. It's designed to limit what the government does, not spell out each individual protection that each right enumerates to American citizens. So when it says "Congress shall make no law" or "shall not be infringed" or "shall not be violated," that's speaking directly to government and telling them what they cannot do, not what individual Americans can or cannot do.

No, you haven't. Frankly, I don't believe you, and I don't believe any gun-grabber when they say things like that. Gun owners have agreed to compromises many times only to have it thrown back in their faces by the same !@#$s who made them promises. Enough is enough. I refuse to compromise on my 2nd Amendment rights. Have you been paying attention? They can't and they won't. The most potent political force "for" 2nd Amendment rights is the NRA who just recently decided to compromise on certain firearm parts and accessories. Don't put words in my mouth.

Alright, we get it, you love your frigid country with no guarantees on your rights. Go chug some syrup or something, hoser.

It's an infringement. The Constitution gives no quarter on "reasonable" or not, unlike with other amendments. The 2nd is arguably more strongly written than amendments that Americans hold dear like the 1st and the 4th.

Because the Constitution is all or nothing. "Shall not be infringed." There is no middle ground. Leftists have made this abundantly clear. Ever since 1934, leftists have been constantly eroding at gun rights. History says that the slippery slope argument is not even close to horseshit. Then change it. Amendments are just as much a part of the Constitution as Article I. Get another one passed.

Yeah, because the war on drugs has worked out great. The problem with leftists is that they want the only people who have guns to be the government. They pretend like they want "reasonable" gun control (which doesn't exist) but they have no interest in enforcing the laws already on the books and simply march on towards stripping decent Americans of their rights.

So you're really stuck on this whole database for the 72% of Americans who shoot guns. Got it. I'll keep that in mind.

Then you wouldn't have called it "your hobby," you would have said, "your rights," because clearly that's what you don't give a **** about.

So which part of "shall not be infringed" do you not understand? Do we need to make comparisons to the fourth amendment in order for people to get it? What makes reading my email an unreasonable violation of my fourth amendment rights while putting me on a list due to my purchases and then limiting said purchases a reasonable infringement on my second amendment rights? Do you have any idea how much ammo I can go through in one hour at the range? Or in one week of training at the range with my department?

Gonna stop you right there because you clearly don't understand the fundamental issue here.

Oh, so the point of my post was lost on you. The point was to point out how ridiculous your idea actually sounds. That I should be put on some sort of watchlist for exercising my rights. I thought you might be more sensitive to that line of thinking.

Why is it that gun-grabbers are nearly always the ones that know the least about guns?

Do you get paid to miss the point, or is it more of a hobby? Move somewhere with a gun ban if you really hate it that much. But nah, leftists never put their money where their mouth is, they just want to destroy what's left of the liberties people fought and died for not even 250 years ago.

lol, yeah, whites are more violent because they managed to conquer the world despite making up a relatively small fraction of the population. Whatever dude. To me, this ain't about race. I'm glad the point of my post wasn't completely lost on you, but your conclusion is sad to me. I want all American citizens to enjoy the rights preserved for them in the Constitution, including any that happen to be Muslims. Stripping people's rights is always bad.

Create a database that keeps track of the movements of all Muslims and where they pray. Make them prove they have no radical influences or thoughts whatsoever before they can move here. Also, before a Muslim can buy a pressure cooker in the first place he/she has to pass a Psychological evaluation. At least it's something. What we can't do is nothing. Enough is enough already. RIP and prayers to all that are affected by this tragedy:

I don't think it's vague at all. "Shall not be infringed" is clear enough. Militia, if you didn't know, is actually defined in 10 USC § 246. That was written in the early 1900's, so if you want to go back to the Federalist Papers and the original intent of the word "militia," it was essentially all able-bodied men of reasonable age. The Federalist papers use the term "regulated" in terms of the militia to mean something wholly different than what gun-grabbers want it to mean. 29 and 46 are particularly relevant.

She's got a strong chin for sure.

Edit: redacted "hurr joke's on you I'm only trolling" meme for language

And you no doubt lack the self-awareness to realize you sound like this guy with your "hurr I'm an agnawstick atheeust" tripe that nobody asked for. Get over yourself.

I'm giving up silly Roman superstitions. Burn in hell, papist scum! Hey I got something, you guys could give up being pretentious pricks for lent.

What does "shall not be infringed" mean?

You can still use an FFL for private party sales if you so choose. Lots of people in Vermont do it because the laws are relatively loose there and they have the same concerns you do. The difference is they aren't advocating for the elimination of 2nd Amendment rights.

Remember the strange phobias and the scared straight episodes? Those were pretty good. My favorites by far were the "guess which ones are biologically female" pretty sure those wouldn't fly anymore.
