Condi Rice stuns the view audience with story about 2nd Amendment

Condi should be in prison for war crimes.
 
lol. It says, well regulated, means whatever Congress prescribes it to mean.

Here is an "unregulated" Korean militia defending their lives and property in Los Angeles after the police had run away from the rioters and the arsonists.

This is what the 2nd Amendment is all about. The police cannot be court-martialed for cowardice in the face of the enemy. Remember this!

seems like private persons exercising their natural right to defense of self and property.
 
dude; you are being, literally, incredible when you claim that. No Thing is more supreme than our supreme law of the land, in any legal venue in our Republic.
And yet, our constitution is subject to interpretation, like what the phrase "well regulated"
means in the context of the second amendment.
In Washington's first state of the Union address, he stated,
A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies.
To me that sounds like the people should not only be armed, but trained and drilled.
OR Federalist #29,
"The project of disciplining all the militia of the United States is as futile as it would be injurious, if it were capable of being carried into execution. A tolerable expertness in military movements is a business that requires time and practice. It is not a day, or even a week, that will suffice for the attainment of it.

We have a Constitution, for a reason. There is no interpretation necessary. The left merely needs to ensure, the right wing doesn't appeal to ignorance, simply for social convenience on a national basis.

If the constitution needs no interpretation, we can save some money and send the supreme court home.
Contrary to your beliefs, our Constitution is subject to interpretation, and the far greater risk
to personal liberty is from liberal judges doing the interpreting.
Extremes of both sides can impact personal liberty, but the left seems to have a gift.

The purpose of the courts is to try cases one at a time and apply the law (as written) to the cases

It is not to nullify portions of the constitution or see "emanations and penumbras" bursting from the laws.

There is no constitutional authority for any court to vacate any law passed by congress and signed into law.

If someone brings a suit against a law for violating a more supreme law, the court has a role to play on a case by case basis as the facts apply.

Only the right wing appeals to ignorance of the law, regarding wellness of regulation for the militia of the United States.

I see you still are unable to cite where the authors of the constitution say that a regulated militia means
anything other than well trained and drilled.
I cited George Washington first state of the union address, and Alexander Hamilton's Federalist paper.
what have you cited so far?

lol. I am not the one making up stories. Are you merely a story teller?

Article 1, Section 8.

lol. can't find the the clause?

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

Wellness of regulation must be prescribed by our federal Congress, for the Militia of the United States.

Only the right wing, spams with appeals to ignorance.

How do you not get that regulation in the above statement does not mean training and drilling?

His own expert opinion, of course.
 
Because it does. Only the right wing appeals to ignorance of our supreme law of the land.
If you are agreeing that "well regulated" means well trained and drilled, then what are you arguing about?
 
did you know, the right wing is literally, incredible, whenever they present that argument. We have a Constitution, not just the amendments.

Yes, and taken together the are the law of the land.
 
“Let me tell you why I’m a defender of the Second Amendment,” she began.

“I was a little girl growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, in the late fifties, early sixties,” she explained. “There was no way that Bull Connor and the Birmingham Police were going to protect you.”

“And so when White Knight Riders would come through our neighborhood,” she said, “my father and his friends would take their guns and they’d go to the head of the neighborhood, it’s a little cul-de-sac and they would fire in the air, if anybody came through.”

“I don’t think they actually ever hit anybody,” she continued. “But they protected the neighborhood. And I’m sure if Bull Connor had known where those guns were he would have rounded them up.”

“And so, I don’t favor some things like gun registration,” she said to a suddenly silent crowd.

Thank God they didn't say black lives matters, otherwise they would have been considered racist gun touting terrorists
 
It's a powerful story.

I do question how factually accurate it is. I tend to question any politician that pulls out on of these childhood memories that fit to perfect into a political position.

For some Americans, it's only powerful in retrospect. Armed black people willing to fight in the face of injustice often provokes a negative response.
