P.S. The mentally ill and the insane? The convicted criminal? NOT WELL REGULATED thus we can limit or deny them this right until such time they are well regulated. We are a philosophy of politics; it is implied or inherent that you will earn wisdom via self-control and self-discipline; becoming well regulated as a person is an art form in America as it is a science.

I am a well regulated militia of one who can and may return fire in the event of a military coup, which is the actual reason the second amendment exists. We were born in an act of self-defense; it is a right and a duty. You're screwed as a nation if an all civilian military commanded by a civilian opens fire on you if you cannot fire right back at them. Sometimes preserving, protecting and defending the Constitution aka We, the people or your one person means you will have to shoot as you do not control any other person but your own self. You fire paper first then lead as some people do not believe what they read even if you exactly name your paper petition The Declaration of Independence and that is it: Actual independence or liberty is not a matter of personal belief as it exists; it is...just like the second amendment itself. Gun control advocates do not get it when you tell them history is and either it is a law or it is not...lobbying to remove this term, inviolate law and so not a changeable condition, is then stating that we never fought the Revolution, we never wrote the Federalist Papers and we never wrote our Constitution. Gun ownership and a citizen militia is not theory but law while gun control is a tested theory that has failed several thousand times over in the past thus we have proven it will never be anything other than theory - as it does not work. By its very nature actual law works thus it is, get it? I will only speak for myself who is definitely not a theory but a law: I am.

Success unchecked? You get exactly what you deserve - the current state of this nation. You answered my question, as you are the proof: No, we will not keep it as SUVs, designer babies and plasma TVs are the siren song we cannot resist. I'm poor this time around once again and for an actual reason: I for one mean it when I say my true belief is some things are priceless. My soul? Without price as I did not fight the American Revolution known as Thomas Jefferson not once but now twice over for nothing...Revolutions? They do have a legal ending but never an actual ending. Your life is a never-ending Revolution with each day a battle. I have yet to witness any one person or any nation as a whole actually or legally win a Revolution with plasma TV's as their weapon. Hitler made the attempt using designer babies. We all know how that worked out for him. As for SUVs? There is an actual SUV named "The Liberty". Do not bother going here as liberty is an inside metaphysical condition first, an emotion, then realized as the outside physical condition known as justice. Another name for justice? SAFETY, which is why the pursuit of the material at the expense of your soul is so dangerous.

E Archer is correct; we named what "organized" government may not do and not what they can do. It is an actual trust issue. "You can" is the law but "you may" is the point of law thus the mobsters know exactly what they can but may not do. Of course I also said we do not rule by a majority but rule by a majority of those who participate thus a Constitution does you no good if only crooks participate. It's supposed to be inherent: you cannot be an actual crook and live out the law as real or then you would not be a crook, would you? Therefore we must now be a nation of those who cast criminal votes. Franklin too is correct: Who cares if one person or a thousand persons rob you or even if 300 million rob you as whether they conspire together or alone it is still robbery and it is still mob rule. Referring to it as "mischief" is my mistake.

You did it to your own selves. Justice is what supports our currency; keep electing crooks and refuse to accord women equal protection but lie and pretend you have and debt is what results: Being in the red - a negative bond rate or actual blood as people die. It is not too late as I'm in federal court suing over this very issue as the real, actual reason you cannot elect persons who break the law by purchasing the office of the Executive i.e. Executive Order or justice which then is the purchase our very lives ad/or do business with nations like China (or grant corportations who do unfair advantage via policy) is it is not possible for their citizens to return the honor bond which every US dollar is: a life and death signed federal honor bound contract- exactyl like our Declaration and Constitution. And yes, I thoroughly enjoy having been proven correct regarding almost everything I ever said. I am not a prophet but a scientist as the economy is a science not a religion as some of you seem to believe. Voodoo economics indeed...if I had not already risen from my grave I would have when you allowed the Congress to give their fellow crooks who then in turn fund their campaigns MORE MONEY as a reward for violating the law of the US and of physics. Minting money is not the same as printing it up to fund your legislation; that - printing it up to then fund your legislation when it does not exist? - that would be creating energy, a power reserved to God not Congress. Congress is now in violation of physics as well as the Constitution.
