1. Ten great points...

...that illustrate the fact that gun rights are LIBERAL rights.

2. An excellent summary of the most common anti-rights arguments.

I'm just curious to see how many of those exact arguments are posted in response -- and whether those doing so will see the irony.

3. I'm a firearm owner and I hope you

Also agree with me. I don't think these things would get in the way with what you have stated.

I think there should be back ground checks on all sales of fire arms.
As a legal owner, I have no problem with the registration of all hand guns.

9. I'd agree with that.

Might disagree with you views on the Constitution and few other things, but we can agree on many things.

5. Don't forget the meme of

" No true Democrat ownes a gun".

7. No.....

§311. Militia: composition and classes

(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.

(b) The classes of the militia are—

(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and

(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

From WIKIPEDIA:

Today, the term militia is used to describe a number of groups within the United States. Primarily, these are:

The organized militia defined by the Militia Act of 1903, which repealed section two hundred thirty-two and sections 1625 - 1660 of title sixteen of the Revised Statutes, consists of State militia forces, notably the National Guard and the Naval Militia.[2] The National Guard, however, is not to be confused with the National Guard of the United States, which is a federally recognized reserve military force of the U.S. Army and the U.S. Air Force, although the two are linked.

The reserve militia[3] are part of the unorganized militia defined by the Militia Act of 1903 as consisting of every able-bodied man of at least 17 and under 45 years of age who is not a member of the National Guard or Naval Militia.

Former members of the armed forces are also considered part of the "unorganized militia" per Sec 313 Title 32 of the US Code.[2]


It's still part of federal law.

[CompanyFirstSergeant]

10. You're wrong.

It is absolutely 100% still part of US federal law.

Besides that, words like ineffective or had to are opinion.

EDIT: as a former service member, I am officially part of the unorganized militia.

15. I personally have trained soldiers...

And I can guarantee one thing that is so far beyond a doubt as to be an unarguable fact like the sun coming up tomorrow in the east...

They were pretty much a bunch of knuckleheads when I got them...

...and they could kick some decent ass when I was done with them.

Ever heard of training?

[CompanyFirstSergeant]

24. Time to call it...

...a night.

Good conversation.

[CompanyFirstSergeant]

12. I have no idea...

...what you are talking about.

[CompanyFirstSergeant]

16. No thanks...

Your argument is basically 'most people who would show up to help would not do a good job of helping so instead of training them to do something useful like handing out water bottles and a little light security work, let's just send them home and when they are gone we can wipe our ass with the 2nd Amendment.'

28. +1

29. It's easier to be a victim, is a trap many fall into.

I've never subscribed to the idea rolling up and hoping not to die was a survival plan.


Some people think that's a progressive indicator, I don't buy into that BS.

IMHO my life, family and property are all worth protecting at all times in all places. It's because I care...
