But, peaceable citizens? What does that mean? Collective? Why even say peaceable citizens if it's a collective?"The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms."
- Samuel Adams, Massachusetts Ratifying Convention, 1788
Again "the people" is a collective. Such as the militias of the states.
Why even say peaceable citizens if it's a collective?
So, then what is the difference between "collective" right and the "individual" right, in your opinion?It removes criminals from that collective right.
And, you have completely ignored this:
"As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms."
- Tench Coxe, Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789
Their PRIVATE arms. Surely, you are not suggesting that "private" arms means state owned or collectively owned, do you?
PRIVATE ownership means????
That was the way it was for many years and many states people survived it... At the moment we're so far away from that it's ridiculous so remain calm. I'm just saying... Had guns are useless in a war or Revolt or whatever you jackasses are going on about... Handguns are not the basis of our country, laws are... Fear mongered brainwashed functional morons...doing away with handguns.Trying to have background checks for everyone but family members and even doing away with handguns, is not trying to do away with the 2nd Amendment.we need Hunters to kill all these damn deer. But carry on with your ridiculous brainwashed bs, hater dupe.Why don't they follow the processes of the government and get 2/3 of Congress and 75% of states to overturn the 2nd amendment?
It's because they know it won't happen...so they will continually try to erode it with continuing to reduce our rights.
but we're not doing away with the 2nd amendment...
i needed that laugh.
How does that help your argument? That is simply a law requiring men to own a firearm. That FURTHERS the individual right argument.Read the Militia act, it required every able bodied male to keep and have available a musket, powder and ammunition. As members of the "militia"
They had Matt dettori confiscation of assault weapons... No one is talking about ending the Second Amendment nobody has anything about hunting rifles and shotguns even the most radical... And guns are only good for one thing, killing people.You are the one who is deluded.Trying to have background checks for everyone but family members and even doing away with handguns, is not trying to do away with the 2nd Amendment.we need Hunters to kill all these damn deer. But carry on with your ridiculous brainwashed bs, hater dupe.Why don't they follow the processes of the government and get 2/3 of Congress and 75% of states to overturn the 2nd amendment?

The ultimate aim of the Left is to ban all guns. Either that, or they are fucking stupid beyond belief.
You see, the Left is always renting their clothes and weeping over the bodies of gun homicide victims.
Well, there is one way, and one way only, to effectively reduce gun homicides. Waiting times won't do it. Banning "assault weapons" won't do it. Banning bump stocks won't do it.
Those are all shams.
The only way to effectively reduce gun homicides is to ban guns entirely and confiscate the ones that are out there. And the only way to do that is to repeal the Second Amendment.
And if you were paying attention, you would see the Left is always point to the examples of countries like Australia which had mandatory confiscation!
So the only one brainwashed in this picture is you. The ultimate aim of the Left is to repeal the Second Amendment and confiscate our guns.
Militia Acts of 1792 - Wikipedia
The second Act, passed May 8, 1792, provided for the organization of the state militias. It conscriptedevery "free able-bodied white male citizen" between the ages of 18 and 45 into a local militia company.
Read it again, it required members of the militia to provide their own guns. And it conscripted white males 18-45 into the militias.How does that help your argument? That is simply a law requiring men to own a firearm. That FURTHERS the individual right argument.Read the Militia act, it required every able bodied male to keep and have available a musket, powder and ammunition. As members of the "militia"

Again, you lie.Wait. I thought "the people" was collective. So, now you agree that it is an individual right?Notice he said "citizens", actually "peaceable citizens" having a right to guns, not "the people"
"The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms."
- Samuel Adams, Massachusetts Ratifying Convention, 1788
Again "the people" is a collective. Such as the militias of the states.
It was a mandated purchase. The government forced men 18-45 to buy something.An INDIVIDUAL owned a firearm. The State didn't own it and pass it out when the shooting was about to begin.
So, did the individual buy the damn gun, or did the State? Who owned the gun?
Private citizens in the late 1700's owned many really nasty weapons, the more deadly the better is what they thought in those times. Few if any are legal today.
