Why is there a Second Amendment? .........

It's for the Most Important Reason:

It's to ensure that NO GOVERNMENT

Can Infringe upon an American's Right to Keep & Bear Arms

Nor Ignore Any American Right!!!

You seem to forget that in 2008 the part of the constitution that this belief relies upon was ruled to be a meaningless prefatory clause. The supreme court basically ruled that this is just dribble and that the second part of the 2nd amendment the operative clause is the bit with the meat.

i.e the bit that has meaning and effect.

You seem to want to have it both ways (have your cake and eat it too). Diminishing the prefatory clause is the bit that moves the second part to apply to anyone and everyone having an unreasonable right to be armed and making any sensible control impossible.

These court decisions are only possible (2008) if the first section has no value.  Read literally guns are protected for militia members and anyone else can go whistle if control is needed, almost certainly what the amendment was originally meant to do.

SECOND AMENDMENT

Right to Bear Arms

Quote:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Biden/Media - preventing any representation for President outside of Politics now.
The 'Freedom' to choose is now 'To choose from 'their' choices only'.

...soon, it will be 'The right to bear 'their' arms only'

Dear Main Stream Media, I'm not upset you lied to me. It is that I can no longer believe anything you say in the future! The Inner Cites are not the whole Nation! Interfering with my Rights isn't the answer.

https://www.fox26houston.com/news/grandmother-killed-man-shot-multiple-times-in-...

Grandmother killed, son shot multiple times in SE Houston

Based on preliminary information, police said the three family members were inside a home with the door unlocked. The male family member called another family member and stated that they were potentially being robbed, and that family member called police.

That’s when, police said, a Black male suspect entered the home and immediately began shooting at the elderly woman. The male son came from the back of the house when he heard the gunshots.

https://www.fox26houston.com/whats-your-point/suspects-out-on-bond-have-killed-m...

Suspects out on bond have killed more than 150 people in Harris County - What's Your Point?

HOUSTON - In Harris County, no fewer than 113 defendants charged with capital murder have been inexplicably granted bond and released back onto our streets pending trial.

CHECK OUT OUR BREAKING BOND SERIES

We are talking about "capital murder" - the most egregious offense in the criminal code - a conviction for which carries either life imprisonment or the death penalty.

In all, more than 50,000 accused felons have benefited from the "catch and release" philosophy of "criminal justice" perpetrated by the current crop of democratic "reform" judges.

MORE CRIME AND PUBLIC SAFETY COVERAGE

According to Crime Stoppers Houston - 155 people have lost their lives at the hands of accused criminals - cut-loose from custody - only to kill while on bond.



This is the result of Liberal Policies and Liberal people being in charge! Inner city crime isn't a problem away from democrat strongholds and we will not be restricted for their failings!

Send them to Australia.

Here they have no guns.
Here they can sedate themselves on as much drugs and alcohol as they like as Australia has the highest ratio per population of any other nation of drug/alcohol usage.
Here they are rooted by the Cops, because love conquers all and $$$ exploited by the Art Industry.

Here, they can roam free with all the other virulent creatures of this island. Grin

And in our great country you can happily pay far too much for everything.
You can do anything you want as long as its not something any one of 100 different departments have decided you cant.
Basically anything is illegal.

You have few rights in Australia, and even they are being eroded daily.
And its illegal to protect yourself (just in case you hurt the criminal)
You can have just about everything though.
You just have to "identify" as an abbo, and dont think that requires any abbo blood.

Its a great country, its only the idiots in charge that are stuffing it up

Americans Will Always Oppose Gun Bans & Laws especially if:

If they are not effective in getting illegal guns out of the hands of criminals who's possession of them is illegal in the first place.


If they are aimed at Law-Abiding American Gun Owners rather than Criminals that obtain guns to be used for criminal purposes.


If the guns the government are attempting to ban are in common use by Law-Abiding American Citizens specifically for lawful purposes, such as self-defense.....to defend & protect themselves, their loved ones, their friends, & their property.

Broad statement there, totally lacking any supporting documentation, or valid & compelling examples.

Before you attempt the above, remember we are talking about America.......This should be your starting point.

Americans have well in excess of 400 million firearms in civilian hands.........better than 90% of those 400 million firearms are not, by law, are not registered, or part of any National Database. Nowhere in America has a firearm registration program ever succeeded in getting American participation. BTW.......a government has no hope in any form of confiscation if it doesn't know who owns what, & where are they kept.....Door to Door confiscation will never work......unless you intend on using robot cops that don't bleed. ...

As an example.....New York State (a democrat Blue State.....went heavily for Obama, Clinton, & Biden) tried mandatory registration.......& got less than 15% registration compliance after 3 years of trying & threatening......from it's gun owners (tried to eventually threaten non-compliance with massive fines coupled with arrest).

Fact is in New York State the State's main law enforcement group...the Sheriffs....refused to enforce the unconstitutional law. You see Sheriffs are elected by the People (like most places in America), & don't work for the State, therefore they only take their orders from the Citizens who elected them....the People....no one else....period...   

Laws are only as good as their enforcement.....No enforcement, the laws become virtually nullified.

Next, how are you going to deal with the many hundreds of criminals who will never obey any law, or effectively destroy the 'black market' they get their firearms from?  Maybe you could try a ban on their guns first.....you know, like a test trial, to see if your plan can succeed.

Now, lets say you succeeded above, how do you convince law-abiding gun owners, who never have used their firearms illegally, & probably never will, that turning in their firearms would make them safer?

Lastly remember.....Americans have always had the Right to Keep & Bear Arms, specifically for lawful purposes, such as self-defense.....to defend & protect themselves, their loved ones, their friends, & their property. It's deeply ingrained in the Unique American Culture....a unique gun culture, dissimilar to any in the world, how are you going to convince them that they no longer have the Right to the firearms of their choosing? ...

I look forward to your persuasive reply......BTW, JFYI.....I'm one of those Americans.

As if I couldn’t tell you were ‘one of those Americans’ given the complete illogicality of your views.
As to ‘unique American culture’ those of us living outside of the so called land of the brave and the free have a clear view of the insanity infecting your national thinking.  I have no intention of attempting to persuade Americans they have no right to the firearms of their choosing given those very firearms will soon remove a vast number of you from the planet in your deluded attempt to impose your idea of democracy on a system that’s anything but.
Meanwhile, when you should have been focusing on the real threats to your liberty, such as Russian and Chinese hypersonic nuclear armed missiles, you’re gleefully tearing yourselves apart.
