NY: Second Amendment explained for the masses
Submitted by: mark@keepandbeararms.com">Mark A. Taff

The purpose of the Second Amendment is to protect the ability of each state to call up its army. It precludes the new central government from disarming the people of the state. It was not intended by its framers, its framers being the states, to prevent the states from regulating firearms or to frustrate each state’s normal police powers to protect the health and safety of their communities.

An individual’s right to bear arms, to the extent such a right exists, may be based on historical precedent or traditional usage or state law, which precedent or usage or state law can be recognized and upheld by the central government.

Condescending legerdemain.

As was pointed out in commentary, the right is grammatically isolated in the operative clause, which is in and of itself a full sentence:

"The right of the People to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed."

The amendment specifically brushes aside the 'collective right' argument by its very structure.



LIBERTY HAS NO EXPIRATION DATE

Liberty is paramount. Government is an afterthought.

Democrats wouldn't buy a clue if it was government subsidized.

Liberals are people who stand on their heads and insist that the world is upside-down.
