Gentlemen,

Did any of you read the document at the link below. It so clearly states in documented references WHY we have the 2nd Amendment! In this document you will learn exactly what type of militia the 2nd Amendment allows. That is Joe American with his own "service rifle" who is not under the control of a state's Governor. Today that service rifle would be a semi-auto AR or AK with 30 round magazines!

Do the research and then discuss rather than make emotional decisions such as the anti-gunners do.

It is a very documented history lesson about WHY we have the Second Amendment. The link below will take you to the abstract. Once there the entire document will easily download.
