The Right To Bear Arms

[danielpalos]

The security of a free State, is the primary mission of the militia.

...and the primary mission of the 2A is to preserve the right of the people, so that a militia can be effective.

Muster the militia until our security problems go away.

Tried and failed at Kent State.

A lack of adequate training. The militia must be able to ensure the security of our free States.

The 2A does not muster the militia. It protects the right of the people.

Security problems, or not.

Do you mean the militia must be as defined in Art. I, Sec. 8 in this manner:

"To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions"; and,

"To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress"

In re Kent State:

Seems the governor of Ohio overreached in calling forth the militia, sense the protest by students didn't meet the criteria in the first clause above;

And, the H. or Rep. as well as the Governor of Ohio failed in the training as well as the State Governor.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

Tell the truth, you go to bed dreaming of using your gun in a movie theater, a grocery store or another public place to shoot and kill a threat to the public.

I don't.

I carry to protect myself and my family ONLY. I am not responsible for the protection of anyone else UNLESS government fails and we are all trying to repel an invasion.

no, it doesn't. It is about the security of a free State not natural rights.

Unsupportable nonsense. The governor is not limited by the clause you mentioned when calling up the militia for state service.

And, the H. or Rep. as well as the Governor of Ohio failed in the training as well as the State Governor.

The federal government trains the national guard as part of its reserve component mission.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

no, it doesn't. It is about the security of a free State not natural rights.

Let's take it a piece at a time.

Does the 2A muster the militia?

Our Second Article of Amendment is not a Constitution unto itself.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

Our Second Article of Amendment is not a Constitution unto itself.

So, I assume that means "no, the 2A does not muster the militia" right?

Our Second Amendment, amends this: To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

Our Second Amendment, amends this: To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

How?

It doesn't change anything about that clause.

The People are the Militia.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

The People are the Militia.

That statement is not relevant to my question.

How is art 1 sec 8 amended by the 2A?

The legislature has the authority to muster the militia. The People are the Militia.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

The legislature has the authority to muster the militia. The People are the Militia.

That does not explain how the 2A amends Art.1 Sec.8. (and that is wrong, but one thing at a time).

that a well regulated militia being Necessary to the security of a free State is one such amendment.
