A well regulated militia has absolutely nothing to do with firearm<br /><br />I don't believe Congress stated that it had to be with guns bombs tanks or planes<br /><br />It only stated it had to be a well regulated<br /><br />Being regulated can only come from one ( as defined by Congress)source the United States Military(s). An the Department of treasury<br /><br />And any state Militia (as defined by Congress) is regulated as to how one can use a gun bomb tank or plane<br /><br />Now if you want to take Bubba that owns 40 acres of land and $5000 of surplus equipment and plays Rambo outback is not part of any state Militia <br /><br />He's a citizen<br /><br />Watch this pageRead in another language<br />Militia (United States)<br />Term for militia in the United States<br /><br />The American ideal of the citizen soldier, in the militia, depicted by the The Concord Minute Man of 1775, a monument created by Daniel Chester French and erected in 1875, in Concord, Massachusetts.<br />The militia of the United States, as defined by the US Congress, has changed over time, complicating its meaning.[1]<br /><br />During colonial America, all able-bodied men of certain ages were eligible for the militia.[2] Individual towns formed local independent militias for their own defense.[3] The year before the US Constitution was ratified, The Federalist Papers detailed the founders' vision of the militia.[4][5] The new Constitution empowered Congress to regulate this national military force,[6] leaving significant control in the hands of each State government.[7][8]<br /><br />Today, as defined by the Militia Act of 1903, the term "militia" is primarily used to describe two groups within the United States:<br /><br />Organized militia – consisting of State militia forces; notably, the National Guard and Naval Militia.[9] (Note: the National Guard is not to be confused with the National Guard of the United States.)<br />Unorganized militia – composing the Reserve Militia: every able-bodied man of at least 17 and under 45 years of age, not a member of the National Guard or Naval Militia.[10]<br />He being a citizen <br /><br />the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.<br /><br />I believe the word is infringed , that gets everybody upset<br /><br />If One is legally competent and can legally pass a background check from state /federal / ATF<br /><br />And can abide by the rules set by his or her state, one would have no problem with that<br /><br />Only 6% of all crimes are perpetrated by the legal gun owner<br /><br />February 2, 2015 UpdateThe 2013 National Crime Victimize Survey report there were almost exactly 300,000 crimes, including murders, facilitated with a firearm. <br /><br />Of those, not more than 5,000 can be shown to have been facilitated with a firearm legally purchased by the offender.<br /><br />Your turn <br /><br />Mister edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00293854096422236002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567813748978904720.post-70410782070473762242017-02-23T16:12:42.162-04:002017-02-23T16:12:42.162-04:00Whaaaaat,I cant use my AK47 for deer hunting?
