Is that in the Second Amendment’s fine print?? I must have missed the part about the cops. Oh wait, organized police departments didn’t become a “thing” until 1829.......in England, NOT the U.S. Let’s please quit adding extra bullshit to an amendment that is already vague and arguably misinterpreted every which way but loose.....
Have you ever heard of a well regulated militia? I guess not.
And you just jumped on the elephant in the room. Who, what and/or where is your “well regulated militia”? The current population who have pretty much unfettered rights to gun ownership? Are mass shootings the acts of a well regulated militia? Gun owners love the word “regulated” in the amendment, and use it to justify their rights. But they hate the word “regulated” if it actually puts any type restrictions on them. We have no militia, well regulated or otherwise. Which seems to blow a hole right through any argument against restrictions on gun ownership.
Well regulated militia is our police force and National Guard as well as our military.
This is not true by any stretch of the imagination......where I live they do good work and know the community...hold weekly Q and As with anyone who has questions...when a kid showed up at the local high school years ago with a weapon they were on site in minutes and confiscated his gun....this was years ago....there are good cops...my cousin in Iowa is my hometown's sheriff now....great guy. Doesn't need to carry a gun around. Knows everybody....if you want to know your local cops learn their names maybe......here I know them by first name...respect those that do good work...blanket criticisms are just bs...it's like saying firemen won't show up if your house is on fire. It's as if vets returning from war are called murderers and baby killers when they step off the boat...snark for the sake of snark...I have another buddy who's a bush pilot in Canada...some folks live in remote areas where nobody can get to until tomorrow..choices. You can protect yourself with a manually chambered hunting weapon...nobody needs an AR15 to protect their home ...you should get by with a shotgun or a snub nose 38.....the handgun police used for a long time.
What if gravity doesn't work anymore?
Wrong again. The National Guard is under control of the governor of the state they represent. They only get under the control of the military when the President orders it.
Then you are fucked....anywhere on the planet. I've seen Martial Law in countries where soldiers are on the streets in full gear. If that happens here....a coup has succeeded. Personally I don't see that ever happening here.
The wear US Army National Guard on their chest....just like there's a USN and a USNR......I thought you knew about this soldiering shit?
I don’t think so. Trying to flush out the most heavily armed population on the planet would be no simple task. Look at Afghanistan as a comparison. We’re still over there fucking around with guerillas and it’s not nearly as big, and it’s people not nearly as armed. It would be a mess for decades.
I don't think my home town has a Sheriff, but the Sheriff in my county is also a great quy. His take is as a Law enforcement officer, is his oath to support the Constitution above all. He will not enforce laws that maybe counter to the US Constitution.
I am, I just don't need to say it.
So you're talking about autographs.name tags? ..yeah, they only use your last name too....just like basketball jerseys. This is their official insignia
