How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199:2834]

Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

yup it is. But that has never stopped you before so why should it stop you now?

It is important for the True Believers to demonize all those outside of their circle and this is merely part of that tactic.

I have no idea what you're talking about when you talk about true believers.

But it is certainly true to say that you don't think that people have a right to keep and bear arms.

true believers are probably people who are here posting on behalf of the political party they work for and do whatever that party tells them to?

Haymarket is a true believer in the privilege of the state to trample the rights of the people.

Mussolini would be proud.

Not here they wouldn't. But of course you are smart enough to know that since that is by design and intent.

Both statements are truly delusional.

why don't you explain this NIMBY. You have a habit of posting stuff that no one has a clue what you are talking about and this comment about two obvious statements is rather unfathomable.

To you and yours

Not delusional at all. Here, let's check. Haymarket, do you think that people have a right to keep and bear arms?
 
Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

again that makes no sense whatsoever

Unless you acknowledge that someone's been nipping at the eggnog.
 
Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

so you are saying is you engaged in nuanced and deceptive comments by design and intent?

The design and intent is yours. I made that clear just a few days ago when discussing this very topic with you.

I think just about everyone knows exactly where I stand on the second amendment. and the constitution. federal gun control violates the meaning and the intent of the constitution and the second, ninth and tenth amendments. Police defensive firearms are clearly covered under the second amendment -both its obvious intent and the three supreme court cases that have dealt with the second amendment.

There is much available on the topic on the net. If you cannot find anything I would be glad to post some links for you about the political identification of the TRUE BELIEVER.

I have stated so many many many many times.

yup - and we know the law of the land also. And we know where you stand on that.
 
Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

seems to fit at least one person on this thread.

Actually it fits the vast majority of posters who all worship before the same altar in these gun threads and who band together to quash even the mildest dissent from the party line.
 
Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

I have stated so many many many many times.

And as you've pointed out a right is a legally protected behavior. Thus keeping and bearing arms is a legally protected behavior, and the "people's representatives" may not interfere with this behavior.
 
Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

yup - and we know the law of the land also. And we know where you stand on that.

I find it rather silly for people to run away from discussions about how the supreme court should rule on many of the silly and piss poor laws Democrats have foisted on us. Its really hard for anyone who understands Heller to believe that some of the idiotic Dem infringements would survive Supreme Court review

what has been quashed? All that happens is lots of people find it rather disingenuous posts that claim to support the second amendment but then claim that said guarantee of rights does nothing whatsoever short of preventing a complete ban on all firearms
 
Re: How Do YOU Interpret The 2nd Amendment? [W:199]

The law of the land says that, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Yes and we all know that you stand against the law of the land, the 2nd Amendment, Gun Grabber.

its the silly "enjoyment" theory of rights that ignores the obvious-that the second amendment (and other parts of the bill of rights) are a negative restriction on the government not some sort of test that bases the government's actions on the specific actions of various citizens. Haymarket's interpretation would mean a ban could be constitutional for those who "already enjoy" their rights while unconstitutional only when applied to those who have yet to "enjoy their rights" (i.e. they have yet to obtain a firearm)
