I would not worry about that. Soon the privileged ruling class will not need secret directives to better insulate and protect them. If "Il Duce Supremo" gets elected he will create powerful military and their problems will go away. It will be "great" you will see. As they say in the Old World how well one sleeps is dependent on how well they made their bed.

A Federal judge ruled that Washington DC must stop requiring people applying for a permit to carry a gun outside their home to have a reason to have the gun. There are more court dates before it is finally decided but in the meantime the judge is requiring the Washington DC police to issue permits without requiring that the citizen having to provide a reason to carry a gun outside his home.


"Judge Leon agreed that the Second Amendment covered the right to carry a pistol in the street as well as in the home. 'The need for self-defense is, of course, greater outside the home than it is within it,' he wrote, adding that the right of 'law-abiding responsible citizens to carry arms in public for the purpose of self-defense does indeed lie at the core of the Second Amendment."

There's an informative and intelligent conversation on the Second Amendment currently on the Parker board, a model of respectful discourse of varying opinions of changing legislation.

Are you open to a different opinion?

I see some folks finding 'respectful discourse of varying opinions' informative and intelligent conversation, but is it informational on preserving the 2nd Amendment?

If a fellow says restrictions aren't really so....because I like shotguns or I'm off to a different part of the country, is he providing useful information? How about a couple of folks going back and forth about whose great gramps trained with which militia. Or, how about one of those fellows is asked about where he got his 'opinion' and it couldn't quite be figured out?

I feel bad for the fellow that comes 'here for information and it's pleasing---and a tribute to the board---to see opinions from a community than partisan politics'. Are they getting information, or being conditioned to respond to feelings. I suppose it might be advantageous not to share who's the arbiter of determining 'public interest'. Sorry about the uninformational opinion.

A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

King Brown's post above has absolutely nothing to do with the topic of this special thread. It does not belong here. It does not conform to Dave Weber's stated purpose. King should know better since his prior attempts to deviate from the stated purpose resulted in his posts being deleted. But just remember, when King says something pertaining to gun rights, it is always best to check the facts for yourself. I believe that the Parker Forum thread he references is this one:

http://parkerguns.org/forums/showthread.php?t=19231

Reading through it, there is one participant, Bruce Day, who appears to repeatedly question the clear meaning of the 2nd. A few others confront his opinions, and one, Dean Romig, in post # 26 of the thread, makes an ad hominem attack on one of Bruce Day's female ancestors by reminding him that his ancestor made an accusation of practicing witchcraft that led to the executions of four other women, including a good wife and mother named Rebecca Nurse. Pretty rough stuff.

Then in post # 29, Double Lab states... in a most civil manner... "You are clear as a bell John. Keep in mind that liberalism IS a mental disorder. Need I elaborate?"

I have used those exact words to describe Liberalism myself, and got accused of uncivil behavior... or should I say "behaviour" since it was King who lambasted me. But he claims that this discussion on the Parker board is a "model of respectful discourse."

Another participant, David Noble, in post # 33 outlines the distinctions between Liberals and Conservatives by accurately describing Liberals as far more likely to support abortion, income redistribution, and GUN CONTROL. The very next post blames a Republican, Ronald Reagan, for signing legislation while governor of California, that may have led to acceptance of new full-auto firearm restrictions within the 1986 FOPA

King Brown made one somewhat rambling post within that Parker thread. He makes an obviously incorrect observation about the Parker Board and partisan politics. I wonder how things would go over there if King started posting his anti-gun Trolling rhetoric such as he does here...

Obama said it again last week.

I believe that during the previous 218 years the Second meant what it said: firearms shall be held by "the People"---a collective and not individual right---insofar they are in the service of "a well-regulated militia." Was an individual right even mentioned at the Constitutional Convention or in the House when it ratified the Amendment or when debated in state legislatures? I don't think so.


Well, the answer is easy if you read the rules. King would be banned from the Parker Forum if he posted the same anti-gun, partisan political things he has posted here. This is not the first time that King has attempted to subvert and disrupt Dave Weber's 2nd Amendment Informational thread. His fellow troll Ed has done the same. That's what anti-gun trolls do.
