Not as pathetic as you spitting on the memory of these little kids.

As long as right argues that guns are needed as weapons, they will continue to awaken the gun control crowd. Weapons are dangerous no matter whose hands they are in. When the gun owners were simply a group of sportspeople and collectors, they weren't as dangerous. The right-wing is the worst enemy of gun owners in that way.

Holy crap, you have no understanding of the 2A do you?

Yup, Obamas just standing on them. Can't wait to see King Obama make his proclamations today surrounded by little kids as props.. wonder if they'll be wearing red bandannas?

I have a good understanding. It was created to preserve the militias in the southern states so that they could reign in the slaves. I think as white men lose their special privileges to women, minorities, gays, and others, they cling to this last area of power (and let's face it this is primarily a conservative white male issue) with desperation. I don't think they want a return to slavery, but the fight for extreme gun rights is a hysterical emotional response to their loss of superior rights. (At any rate, personally I do not support guns as weapons.)

To quote Patrick Henry:

"If the country be invaded, a state may go to war, but cannot suppress [slave] insurrections [under this new Constitution]. If there should happen an insurrection of slaves, the country cannot be said to be invaded. They cannot, therefore, suppress it without the interposition of Congress . . . . Congress, and Congress only [under this new Constitution], can call forth the militia."

Re: Newest Religion: Gun Control
 

Just as I thought, you really have no understanding of the 2A.
