did you read the comment??
Let me simplify it for you.
I was defending piers morgan's right to say what he pleased, to be ignorant, rude, and idiotic, and to attack the constitution, as his freedom of speech is protected by the first amendment.
You understand??
I was defending morgan's right to say as he pleases, even though he is totally wrong, and a complete arsehole.
The move to have him kicked out of the country is hypocritical, as those defending the second amendment seem to have forgotten the first..........
You got it now??
Here, let me simplify it further.......
See piers. See piers being rude. See piers proving he can not read the constitution.
See the gun guys. See the gun guys try to silence piers. See the gun guys prove they can not read the constitution either.
Perhaps you can understand that...if not, you're hopeless.
Btw, i understand the reason behind the constitution very well.
The second amendment is rooted in the english bill of rights of 1689, which recognized an ancient limited right of the people to keep arms for their defense.......
The british in the new world violated that right when they set off into the countryside to seize arms at lexington and concord, and were met with resistance from armed colonials.
The states bucked at signing on the the original constitution because it held no bill of rights to guarantee individual liberties.....the response were the first tem amendments, which grant those individual rights.........
The purpose of the second amendment is twofold:
1. The people, who taken all together are the militia, have the right to keep military-style personal arms to defend themselves from tyranny, and so in case of emergency they may offer themselves for service bearing their own weapons.
2. The people have the right to bear arms to defend themselves against attack.
Btw, merry christmas.
