The founding fathers didn't write the 2A for hunting

Please drop that silly and ridiculous thought from your brains.
You want to know what they intended the 2A for?
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." ---Thomas Jefferson
Don't believe it's no longer necessary? I wish I lived in your fantasy world.

I wish i lived in your fantasy world where a handgun will protect you against your government.
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Who said anything about a handgun?
I don't believe the 2nd Amendment means anything anymore. At the time it was passed, guns could reasonable hold back a tyrannical government.
Unless we're granted the right to bear missiles, tanks and bombs today, we're not going to stand a chance against the government with some pistols and shotguns.
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
You going to arm yourself against fighter jets, drones, and bombs? I think not.
But then again, if that is the reason why we have a right to bear arms, why is it that most guns (other than hunting) are purchased to "protect" people from other people or criminals and not the gov't?
Oh bullshit!!!
He'd use Twitter.
ok name whatever weapon you want and keep believing that it will protect you against your government if they ever decided to turn your country into dictatorship. .

Nope, I guess I'd do what you'd do. Get on my knees and beg.
I'm not so chicken shit scared of my own government as you.
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
Beg for what?

congrats, I find it funny that people think that if the government wanted to take over and control you that they would not have done that already.
there is not a tyrannical government now, and there hasn't been since we won the revolutionary war.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Aren't we supposed to believe that it already did, that the Illuminati and the New World Order and FEMA and the UN are all pulling the puppet strings?

Prevention. An yes, there has. Civil war. Or do you think it was all about slavery?

it was primarily about slavery and the southern economy.
why are you being so dramatic about the boogeyman government? you are normally a very level headed poster.
edit to add, the guns in the civil war were provided for the armies by the respective governments, not the "well regulated militias" mentioned in the 2nd amendment that people like to talk about.
edit again, someone fucked up the quote feature.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Because I don't trust it. And I felt the same under Bush as I do now.
really? there's a big difference between writing with a quill pen and typing on an ipad, no?
What are you so afraid of, all people wan't is some stricter laws you can keep your hunting guns the machineguns need to go surely you can see that no ...
And again the 2A wasn't written to hunt.
You know damn well what i mean again what are you afraid of ?
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” (Quoting Cesare Beccaria)
"The beauty of the Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it."
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.
Not a damn thing.
I do believe there needs to be a ban, a ban on drugs that change the brain so that the person doesn't know reality. ALL ALL ALL of these shooters are mentally screwed up in some fashion. There isn't a logically sane one in the bunch. Everyone here screams ban this type of gun or ban this type of magazine... but very few look towards fixing the source of the problem. Guns don't shoot themselves, we need to get to the bottom of why people feel like they should kill other people.
people keep attacking meds. meds alter the brain chemistry in attempt to get it back to normal. all depression is is is a chemical imbalance and a lack of dopamine or serotonin. the meds help to correct that balance.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
That's it ban drugs no banning of any weapons at all even the staunches of conservatives believe we need to at least ban the types of weapons that have been used in the past two mass murder cases , i would def wan't better treatment of the mentally i'll but you have to meet us half way on something no ...`
