I just had -a-thought, about the "Right-to-bear-arms". It has for-long occurred to me that most of the "gun-nut", N.R.A. loudmouths who scream about "the right-to-bear-arms" as guaranteed by the Constitution.; HAVE NEVER EVEN READ THE CONSTITUTION!!! I have a copy, which I carry in my pocket. The second amendment says: "A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, The right of the people to keep & bear arms, shall not be infringed." A"WELL-REGULATED" MILITIA!!!! NOT EVERY HILLBILLY WITH A GUN-RACK!! (and, at the time, "automatic weaons" did not exist!!) A "well-regulated militia" is something like the National-Guard; NOT a buch of looneys headed by a guy who once played Moses in a movie!!!! It is NOT any group of gun-hoarding, anti-government whackos who hoard hundreds of weapons and stockpile millions of rounds of ammo; and call temselves a "Militia"!! Those who "live by the sword (or gun) , shall die by the sword (or gun)." Dave
