Because he is fucking nuts. You know, I have to laugh. Whenever something happens someone always says "where are the parents?" Well here is a parent sounding the alarm and everyone wants to jump down her throat for being a lousy mother.
Make up your fucking minds people.
The 2d Amendment was written in 1789 with the rest of the Bill of Rights.
At that time there were only single shot muzzle loading weapons. The most dangerous weapon we had was a 12-lb artillery piece. Please don't try to tell me that the FF mystically envisioned the Industrial Revolution and tanks, planes and M-16s.
In case you forgot - the full text of the amendment is
Quote: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.
As late as 1939 the Supreme Court ruled in Miller v United States that there was no constitutional right to own a sawed-off shotgun because it had no 'reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well-regulated militia.'"
This stood until 2008 when the Supreme Court's 5 myopic old fucks decided that "well-regulated militia" meant nothing. Looking at this list of names I can't help but wonder if they weren't more interested in the profit margins of the death merchants than the safety of Americans.
