2nd Amendment and Constitution a Philosophical Statement

[TrappedinCalifornia]

I posted this in response to a reply on another thread. However, in retrospect, I think it might deserve its own thread.

Isn't the 2nd Amendment and the entire Constitution the representation of a philosophical point of view?

The Right to Arms and the American Philosophy of Freedom

Given the 'debates' we're having on this site about 'reasonable' limitations on the 2nd Amendment; registration of so-called 'assault weapons' and whether the Government is responsible if you couldn't register at the last minute; whether it is more 'patriotic' and/or 'principled' to hide what you got or openly display/use, risking becoming the test case or having your arms confiscated; the likelihood of Newsom going after all semi-auto firearms sometime between his first hour or first year in office; and all the rest...

I thought it might be an interesting read.

i have to agree with you and while I applaud your efforts those efforts will fall on the deaf ears of those who think they are smarter than our founding fathers. Until Americans experience the terror of living under a dictator they will not appreciate the freedoms they once had or how far they will have to go to get them back assuming they have the courage to try and get those rights back. i won't argue with the buffoons anymore. good luck
