Smith; [email protected] Subject: Re: [funsec] The right to bear arms & make salad >> The goal of the 2nd amendment is to have armed people with guns that can be called up and used in military activities by the government. There is nothing about self-defense nor protecting oneself against government oppression in the amendment. Regardless the amendment is clear that Americans get to have guns. A majority of the Supreme Court disagrees with you. The militia back in the day was composed of all able-bodied males. The point of the amendment is that the people have a right to defend themselves.
