    True. The military is too busy with wokeism atm. A united citizenry, which would include "unclean" "heathen" unvaxxed now-former military members, would overwhelm the woke military.

    Your first quote is from the Declaration of Independence, but that document is nothing legally binding today.
    Rights have nothing to do with government restrictions.

    Yet none of that is in the 2nd Amendment.

    I say what I see, and I have an excellent life long record of being right.

    You might want to listen.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    The word 'Arms' is in the 2nd amendment dumbass. It means weapon in this context.

    Nope. No such attempt was being made. Congress has no authority to certify any election (other than electing a Speaker of the House).

    As a practical matter, it doesn't really matter what the 2nd intended. State and federal gun control laws are not going to be too restrictive or too liberal for most Americans. None are going to allow fully automatic weapons or grenades and none are going to prohibit common pistols or rifles.

    Almost any gun control group can accomplish what it wants under current interpretations--it is a political rather than legal issue. Some states already have waiting periods, background checks, restrict or prohibit assault weapons.

    People in regulated militias should be allowed to have arms, by the technology of the 18 C. Seems obvious what it means.
