Correct. If abortion rights are so important, women should have filed suits to get it established under the 14th Amendment (forced labor - Forced organ donation precedent already established), rather than the 4th amendment (Roe V Wade - 'right to privacy'). So, women will have to file suits and push them all the way up the court system to solidify abortion rights as constitutional. This is a concept which comes from Barbara Honegger (a 'conspiracy theorist' who has been ridiculed in the media, particularly by left leaning mainstream media sources).


I can give a like to the portion I quoted.

What do you think the real purpose of the 2nd amendment is? And the history goes back to 16th century English law.

The right of personal protection is paramount to survival and the right to stop tyrannical government is too.
I can agree that the intention of the 2nd was to fight against a potential tyrannical government [such as escaped from with the last election] but I fail to see it being interpreted in relation to personal protection. I do know that it has been interpreted thus.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Sometimes you need personal protection when you are exercising the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

You know that is as disingenuous as the labels of democrat and republicans, as they have switched roles since those times. - notwithstanding a few jerks like Wallace.
Uh, no. There was certainly some dirty trickery. But the dems were never virtuous. Any good thing they ever did was done for evil reasons. The repubs were infiltrated, but MAGA is restoring the party (party of Lincoln)!

context, grammar - but I do understand how it is interpreted out of context.
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
- Second Amendment of the US Constitution

Back then the US had no standing army, therefore a well regulated militia could not be formed and would be unable to bear arms to secure their free state unless the citizenry could keep their arms (weapons). The US now has a standing army, but that fact does not mean that we must lose constitutional rights. For example, if the federal government formed a national news service, that wouldn't justify removing the first amendment rights from the people. Well, it's the same with the 2nd amendment or any amendment. You can change the constitution if need be, but that is very hard to do and highly improbable. And this is how it is supposed to be.

Actually thats another saying the wordsmiths got ahold of. It's actually life liberty and property. The founding fathers knew to be free people had to own property not like in the old country.

Just like the lefts all the time saying a "Threat to out Democracy".. Bullshit.

The US is(or was)a constitutional republic.. The founding fathers stated they didnt want a democracy b/c its 1 step away from socialism.
