uh keet, did you forget...here it is again, just for youse:

i view the second amendment as the founding fathers attempt to prohibit the central government from prohibiting the people and the states the right to keep and bear arms. they knew that if only the central governments troops were armed, then the people and the states would be ultimately defenseless against the power of the central government...and the desire to preserve the power of the states is why the second amendment is framed in the context of a well regulated militia...

however, my view also, is that although the second amendment protects the people from any government prohibition of arms possession, it does not prohibit government from regulating the possession of certain classes of arms...the regulation of fully automatic firearms at the federal level is an example. and the fact that many states regulate the possession of handguns, is a more common example.

and regulation and prohibition are not the same.

And, what again was the result that you wanted from your form of regulation known as licensing? Didn't you explain that you wanted ownership of semi auto hand guns to be prohibitive?

Hey, have you tried the new Rapala, getting great reviews for trolling.
