The Second Amendment is all about bear hunting.

“weapons designed for the theater of war have no place in our society”. Might want to consider what the authors of our Bill of Rights might think about that, Mr. President! Those were the EXACT weapons they were trying to protect!

When you think about it, though, it’s no odder the President finding the word ‘hunt’ in the Second Amendment than the Supreme Court finding the word ‘home’. Government professionals simply have more penetrating eyesight than we do.

The President believes that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to bear arms

The Second Amendment is all about bear hunting.

OK, if the Second Amendment is even in part about hunting, how is a fee charged for a hunting license any more constitutional than a poll tax?

You mean “well-regulated militia” isn’t 18th century English for “hunting party”..?

Somewhere after the civil war the guns are for hunting idea came as a way to keep free blacks from getting guns. They don’t hunt they never have hunted for food, they do not need guns. Thus the NRA came in to help.

To try to split hunters away from other 2nd amendment supporters hoping they’ll stand by and do nothing while everybody else is disarmed. Divide and conquer.

Together we stand, divided we fall.

Yes, and it’s very planned and deliberate. They’ve been biding their time waiting for another chance to execute this plan. Using the Fudds against the other gun owners worked well for the British commies and it’s worked here too to a lesser extent so far. They will never give up trying to ban guns.
