The gun lobby’s interpretation of the Second Amendment is one of the greatest pieces of fraud — I repeat the word ‘fraud’ — on the American People by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime.

The real purpose of the Second Amendment was to ensure that state armies — the militia — would be maintained for the defense of the state.

The very language of the Second Amendment refutes any argument that it was intended to guarantee every citizen an unfettered right to any kind of weapon he or she desires.

- Warren Burger, former Chief Justice, U.S. Supreme Court

A Chief Justice interprets the 2ND Amendment

The Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees a "right of the people to keep and bear arms." However, the meaning of this clause cannot be understood apart from the purpose, the setting, and the objectives of the draftsmen. At the time of the Bill of Rights, people were apprehensive about the new national government presented to them, and this helps explain the language and purpose of the Second Amendment.

It guarantees, "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." The need for a State militia was the predicate of the "right" guarantee, so as to protect the security of the State. Today, of course, the State militia serves a different purpose. A huge national defense establishment has assumed the role of the militia of 200 years ago.

Americans have a right to defend their homes, and nothing should undermine this right; nor does anyone question that the Constitution protects the right of hunters to own and keep sporting guns for hunting anymore than anyone would challenge the right to own and keep fishing rods and other equipment for fishing. Neither does anyone question the right of citizens to keep and own an automobile.

Yet there is no strong interest by the citizenry in questioning the power of the State to regulate the purchase or the transfer of such a vehicle and the right to license the vehicle and the driver with reasonable standards. It is even more desirable for the State to have reasonable regulations for the ownership and use of a firearm in an effort to stop mindless homicidal carnage.

Memes, Memes, I Got Memes!

Rare are the times that I have nothing to say, but tonight seems to be one such time.  So instead of me pontificating on nothing, I thought I’d share with you some of the political memes from my collection.  Some are words of wisdom from people past and present, others are just reflective.  I especially love the one about Charles Schulz and the one by Jess Piper!

Juno Steel (The Penumbra Podcast)

Sam Bailey (The Sheridan Tapes)

Casper (Midnight Burger)

Richard Heart (The Orphans)

one thing I worry I haven’t portrayed well enough in Baby Steps is Zeke’s relationship with his mother and how his unwavering love and devotion for her is kind of toxic and something he needs to work on, because for all his talk of boundaries he is incapable of setting them with her
