Only records in my mind. Had I written down such things over the years there wouldn't be a tree left standing. General trends.
That's ridiculous. The purpose of the militia is to keep the government in check, its purpose isn't to launch wars with other nations, but as a last line of defense if our military fails.
So an authoritarian craphole country like Rome fell, good riddance. The whole point of the Constitution was for the militia to keep the government from becoming a craphole. Both are also authoritarian crapholes that don't cater to trans rights. Most of the deaths were the result of cucks and prudes trying to ban all booze. If prudes don't take away our booze then are much less deaths. prohibition resulted in a lot of deaths and gang warfare, if there wasnt prohibition there wouldnt have been gang warfare.
Care to cite chapter and verse from the U.S, Constitution to support that assertion? Take your time; I've got all day.
Yes, politics is rigged, only ancient bloodlines allowed to win elections, its all a rigged scam, 99% of politicians are corrupt, except for the ones that lose elections. Course not. There would be instant civil war instead. Instead they want to do it slowly, first banning AR-15s, then working up their way to banning other guns, until eventually all guns are banned. Because lets get real, why ban ar-15s when you can kill as many people with pistols. Maybe there is another reason they focus on AR-15s, because they know AR-15s are really effective at uprising and resisting the government, while pistols are not. american military is obedient to the politicians and 99% of them are criminals. Maybe there are some good militaries here and there but most wars imo are just a bunch of thieves trying to steal resources from other countries, and politicians make up some kind of bogus reason to go to war that the sheeple believes. And? There are also a lot of people that complain about political policy, has not much effect on policy. Before or after the crime occurs? america, land of corruption, land of the scam, land of the fee home of the slave. the people from They Live are the ones in control. Actually its in even worse management now, more like a dystopian Charlton Heston movie than They Live at this point. Then they are trans. By free press do you mean controlled media? The crooked system is gonna fix its own corruption? Uh yeah right. "trying to stop one of these": If leftists werent so busy trying to ban AR-15s then maybe militias could have some real weaponry instead of trying to defend the right to varmint rifles.
pretty obvious, here is what it says: "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." militia is for the security of a free State, to prevent corrupt governments from rigging society. @MeAgain it does not say "A well regulated mainsteam media, being neccesary to the security of a free State." Sorry but I do not have much faith in the mainstream medias ability to save us from corrupt governments when they promote and are part of the same corruption in the first place.
The simplest solution to gun violence is to deploy drones with sound detection that can pinpoint any gunshot in NYC and surround the place with drones within seconds. Such a system in every major city would drive the demand for illegal weapons into the toilet. Virginia supplies guns that are routinely sold in NYC, and it is by reducing the demand that it becomes more expensive than its worth. Unfortunately, that's still cutting edge Pentagon technology, but we'll see what the private sector can offer. Such drones can easily be armed with any kind of nonlethal weapon imaginable, but just the cameras following you everywhere is what they call an, "Attention Getter".
The "State" referenced in the 2nd Amendment is the U.S. government; 'state' with a capitol 'S'. Everyone with more than a 6th grade education knows this. State /stāt/ noun a nation or territory considered as an organized political community under one government.
But the military has machine guns, tanks, submarines, aircraft carriers, F-15EX fighters, RPGs, fragmentation and thermite grenades, nuclear bombs, etc. How will you keep the government in check with semiautomatic weapons in the hands of a few civilians? Isn't it smarter raise educated citizens to elect competent representatives to keep the government in check?
Rome wasn't authoritarian until the Republic was overthrown. The whole point of the militia clause in the Constitution was to support the government, not overthrow it. Please explain your remarks about Japan and Great Britain. Booze? So where are all the automatic weapons in the hands of the public?
All politicians are corrupt except those that lose? Oh ho! The old slippery slope argument. Waste of time. As far as the AR15 apparently you have no idea what guns are banned or where. So our, media, military, politicians, and government are corrupt? I thought you owning a gun would stop that. Doesn't seem to be working according to you.

Gun nuts call that collateral damage... Guess it's perfectly acceptable, just as long as they get to play Rambo in their backyard with an AR...
Some slave owners wanted a future where there would be no more slaves. For instance George Washington felt a bit guilty about owning slaves. My guess is they wrote the 2nd amendment the way they did and use the word "militia" instead of a "white militia" because they had plans for the future where blacks would also be part of the militia and no longer slaves. In any case, modern day America is land of the fee home of the slave, the global corporate plantation and corporate dystopia of crapatalism. These are the cards we are dealt now, the way the Constitution is worded says guns are needed for a free-state, and banning guns will just allow corporations to have absolute control of the country. Mussolini said fascism is the merging of corprotation and state, that's where we are at right now. Someone else said that all it takes for evil to truimph is for good men to do nothing, that statement can be modernized to say that all it takes for evil to triump is good men, women and non binaries to do nothing. If you want freedom you need weapons to fight for what is right, you cant rely on crooked politicians and media to be noble.
Yes all elections are rigged and the only good politicians are the ones that fail at elections. Guns are helping and working, if it wasn't for guns they'd have already been going door to door sending everybody to fema camps and injecting nanobots into every citizen by now.
