My Legislative Wish List

[Fisherman777]

2A is absolute? In what regard? Where does the 2A argue method of bearing arms? Where does the 2A argue the right to chose how we "bear" arms?

Right at the end. It's that not infringing part.

check mate

No, actually its not. yet when asked about who these "state firearms directors" are you clam up and say that you dont want to talk about them.....
your bluff got called. you loose.

This> You are talking about public officials who have their numbers available via google,
Dont be lazy, use it.

 

[Bithabus]

Again, where does the 2A argue method of bearing arms? Where does the 2A argue the right to choose how we "bear" arms? You are beginning to behave like a few others on this site, in that you "run" from answering the question(s) posed.

I've answered your question several times. I don't know how to make it more clear. The 2a doesn't argue anything, it establishes a right to keep and bear arms and states that the right shall not be infringed. Not even a teeny bit. That is what makes it an absolute.

You are the one who said you talked to "State Firearms Directors"....why dont you want to say who they are?
(just to help you out. this is a trick question. we know you actually didn't.)

 

[Texan2]

Maybe you can be the "Firearms Director" for Texas? I'll vote for you.

Again, this is really too easy. I was hoping for much better.

How is my right to bear arms being infringed when I can CC? Again, where I can CC is infringement. Where does it say in the 2A that denying OC is an infringement on my right to bear arms? Again, am I not bearing arms when I CC? Platitude by simply writing the word "infringement" over and over again does not support your argument, no matter how often you state it.

 

[APatriot]

or maybe, like others on this site, he has answered them a dozen times already and you are ignoring the answers

Answers without support/substance, but simply conjecture = no answer. Google the word "conjecture" for meaning.

Look under "Tools of the State".

What if State law allowed you to carry a handgun openly, but not concealed. Do you think that would be an infringement?

How can you not love your country enough to call her standards of rights and freedoms to a higher plain and still call yourself a patriot?

No - based on the same premise - that the 2A does not specify/address the method of bearing arms.

Was your message addressed to me? I hope not for a variety of reasons, but for Pete's sake, your credibility just went to zero by quoting George McGovern - a freaking statist!!!

Well at least you are consistent.

Lets take it to an extreme. You say the methods we use to bear arms can be restricted without infringing our "right to bear arms". What if the State decides the only legal method to carry your handgun is in front of you in a tactical wheelbarrow? Would you see that as an infringement on our right to bear arms?

That was stupid but I eventually expected it. The word is "reasonable". Let's look at the words "bear arms". I think a handgun in a tactical wheelbarrow would not meet the definition of "bear arms". This quote exemplifies that stupidity is the last resort when one has been "checkmated". I am really disappointed in you but you are not the first, and nor will you be the last.

However, on second thought, the wheelbarrow may meet the "keep" concept.

We have the freedom of how we carry a gun in our homes.... where do we get that freedom\right from? It's not the government who gives us permission to do so it's our freedoms and rights given to us in the constitution of life liberty and justice including those specifically enumerated in the bill of rights under the 2nd amendment.

Take that a step further. In several states they have the right to open carry. Where did they get that freedom\right from? it's their freedoms and rights given to them in the constitution of life liberty and justice including those specifically enumerated in the bill of rights under the 2nd amendment.

Why don't we have those same rights? It's because we've given them to the Texas state government to control. As citizens we can take those rights back though voting and pressuring our representatives to represent our ideas. The federal government can't then step in and say, no way, no open carry... Why? it's our freedom and right given to us in the constitution of life liberty and justice including those specifically enumerated in the bill of rights under the 2nd amendment that includes the right to open carry. We've not given them (the federal government) permission to take that right away.

I'm trying to show you that infringements on "method" and infringements on "bearing arms" are the same thing.

And, carry in a wheelbarrow certainly would be "bearing arms". The gun would be on or about your person.
