Bill of Rights .2nd Amendment. Why I support Ron Paul '08

2nd Amendment

Right to keep and bear arms.
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.

But did you know?

This right is gradually being destroyed as a growing number of states and communities enact ever more repressive gun control legislation. In the summer of 1990 New Jersey made criminals of over 200,000 of it's citizens with the stroke of a pen by banning many popular sporting rifles. As violent crime grows, U.S. citizens need means to defend themselves more than ever, yet we are being legally disarmed. Also some of our own military have been approached by "government officials" and asked if they would enter homes to take our arms away if asked. During Katrina they actually did, forcibly unarming ptivate citizens and denying the right to protect their homes during a major natural diaster.

Everyone over the age of five (I learned to use a gun younger than that) that is mentally capable, should have a gun, or atleast knowledge to use it. If everyone had a gun, we'd all be alot safer.

Agreed..

WEll said. No country or movement has EVER gotten rights without the use of force or the threat thereof. I know that sounds mean to people, but the other option is eventual enslavement. YOu're right about this. DC's gun ban is a prime example. So is Switzerland's mandatory gun ownership!!! No one attacks them

[Beatleha]

"The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed the subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing. Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty." -- Adolf Hitler (H.R. Trevor-Roper, Hitler's Table Talks 1941-1944)

[Beatleha]

"Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest." -- Mahatma Gandhi (An Autobiography OR The story of my experiments with truth, by M.K. Gandhi, p.238)

[Beatleha]

"If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun." -- The Dalai Lama, (May 15, 2001, The Seattle Times) speaking at the "Educating Heart Summit" in Portland, Oregon, when asked by a girl how to react when a shooter takes aim at a classmate

good video I respect your decision on not wanting a gun and your support for second amendment as a right for all of us.

[hittingrabbit]

Your right,they try to get around the amendments meanings by reading other things into it.The biggest question is whether the militia was to be the people or the State,but it cannot be the State as the Guard is funded by the Federal government.

[vursitis]

Agreed.

[InfoBomb]

it's actually much worse 100k+law's

the worst of the worst is the fact that if you a legal citizen a good citizen and can pass a background check, and by happen stance travel to the state next to you to purchase a handgun, you will be refused some states allow non residents to buy a long gun not all.

The only thing for sure is that over the past 90 years are right to bear arms is systamaticaly being taken away.

while the police and military are loading up on them.

The time is near

[Dantex626]

good video.

from sweden

[therealoctober]

So government should put prices on all firearms?

Sounds like communism. Why not let a free market decide the prices according to the principles of supply and demand?

[defenderofliberty]

Well said. I don't think I've ever heard infringe explained that way, but you hit the mark in that it means to chip away or remove or violate even just a little bit.

Great quotes. Thanks!
