Wow eco! You are starting to share more logic! You still have refused to provide evidence of your statements, which is, how have I lost all perspective? Where did I say that 320 million dollars was a lot of money? Also keep in mind, someone else said that logistics were key, not me.
Now you mentioned my stance on gun control. If you read my posts on this issue, it is more than likely you will not understand my stance on this issue, since so many people on these forums do not understand what I am saying.
My stance on the second amendment is to interpret it for which it was meant to be interpreted. The purpose of the second amendment was to provide the people the power to overthrow an oppressive government, not to enforce order with everyday trivial things. Our forefathers just came from an oppressive government, did they not?
So I believe people should be able to purchase a firearm assuming they are a part of an organized militia. I do not believe an average citizen can purchase a weapon and not participate in an organized militia. It has been said on these forums, that the supreme court disagrees with this interpretation of this amendment. But there are things that should be noted when dealing with the supreme court.
First, the supreme court has changed stances on issues during the course of history. Also, if you follow a lot of their decisions, most of those decisions coincide with the views of society and the people in power at the time. It really has little to do with true logic. Second, the supreme court has invested interests if they do not allow the amendment to be interpreted in this way. They want to keep their power. This is a law of man, for people who have power will do whatever it takes to keep that power.
It seems, that when people hear from credible people in their minds, they refuse to question the logic of these credible people. Why is that? They are human, right? It is our job as educated citizens to question everything that is put forth between us. Whether it is said from congress, the president, the supreme court, the scientist, or the religious leader.
To recap. My stance on gun control is that people can own a weapon assuming they are participating in an organized militia.
