Nope, not going to think about it because you're a moron.

Probably factually incorrect, but the FFs were so stupid that they thought weapons technology would never advance? Who's the one being stupid?

If the 2nd Amendment wasn't written on Monday, it would've been written Tuesday-morning.

The 2nd amendment was written when we could own large cannons also.  Your point?

Think about that.

The United States Supreme Court deemed abortion-on-demand a right long before we had high-def sonograms and the wonderful technology to see into the womb.

Think about that.

1st Amendment was written when we had a quill and ink most likely.  Sorry Cattledog, you have no right to post on DU.

The 2nd Amendment was written when guns held one bullet.

It was also when the weapons in civilian hands were the equal, and in some characteristics superior, to the most advanced military technology of the day, and included ordnance of any size you could afford to feed and find enough friends to help you drag it around and fire it.  And the state of the art in First Amendment was broadsides, handbills, and pamphlets that had to be fed by hand one at a time into a manually-powered printing press one at a time.

Merchant ships carried cannons and were privately owned back then.

22. Well, since a schoolful of dead kids didn't slow them down,

I really doubt they'll find their arguments mooted by a bunch of dead hillbillies at a hillbilly music show.

They have zero shame.

When that happened it was a dem controlled house & senate, why did they not do anything?

Your remarks are truly disgusting, they were Americans out for a little fun, you disgusting pig.

Fact is the 1st is way broader than in the quill and ink days now including expression as well.

Do not take this as a comment on the gun thing. I just like accuracy on DU. The first has never been broader than it is today.

I was wondering when one of the more heartless than usual DU vermin would say something along those lines (i.e. "It was a country music concert, so I'm sure they were all a bunch of brainless, racist, Trump- supporting redneck deporables who all deserved to die!"), and it looks like Codeine is the one who has beaten out Hillary Clinton for the "Douchiest, most despicable commentator on the Las Vegas massacre" award. Here are your well- deserved prizes, Codeine:  :bird:, and a reserved seat in Hell to be redeemed when you improve the gene pool by dying in a way that I hope is extremely painful.

Not exactly accurate, as there were manually operated printing presses in use in the 18th Century. On the other hand the principles of physics underlying electric motors, photocopiers, inkjet and laser printers, and broadcast radio, broadcast and cable TV, and the Internet were only just beginning to be discovered, so the 1st Amendment should not cover anything more modern than a manually operated printing press. By the logic of this moldy meme, at least.

Tell ya what randr.  I love shooting myself, but I'm not sure how accurate I am.  I do however feel pretty confidant that this old 57 year old man could kick any little  fem libtards on DU ass hand to hand.  Not sure if I could handle you and your momma at the same time though.

They're like Foghorn Leghorn without the exaggerated/fake Southern accent. Lots of bluster, still a rather dumb chicken.

If you do find yourself needing to handle randr's momma, I would strongly recommend use of extensive proper PPE and a strong, bleach-based disinfectant afterward.

It seems to me that 2nd meant that citizens would/should have access to the same implements of
war that the govt used.  I want my M2 50cal and my damn bazooka right the f*** now.   :rant: :rant: :rant:

I have guns in my house, should I be afraid of them?
