I think it represents a timely reminder that we now know those who scream the loudest about the 2A, and how we can't do a damn thing about gun violence because it would erode their freedoms, have no interest in using it the way they've always proclaimed they must, as long as the right people are being hurt.

And I'm not actually anti-2A so much as I am anti-a-particular-sort-of-gun-enthusiast.

I'm not keen on the 2A, based on it's original purpose and use. I am, however, pro "Under no pretext shall arms and ammunition be surrendered, and any attempts to do should be frustrated, by force, if necessary."

I am not arguing in any way for disarmament. But the fact that's all anyone seems to think I'm saying is kind of proving my point.

Nah, I was only replying to the part about you not being a 2a supporter, showing you dont have to be, in order to support an armed working class 😀

All good, I get it now!
