2nd Amendment Grammar...It Isn't Complicated...At All
Whenever I get bored of organizing my dryer lint collection I will look in on the lunatic left and their fellow travelers, the ignorant and stupid soft left. One of their favorite Straw Man arguments against the 2nd Amendment is the laughably incorrect grammatical analysis they prefer; that the independent clause clearly stating the right that is being codified and defended is somehow modified by the first part of the sentence: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State."And of course it gets even dumber, because they don't understand what "well regulated" meant in the 18th century.
How's this?A well-schooled electorate, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and read Books, shall not be infringed.
Would that make it clearer to the little gun-grabbing suburban liberals who think guns are icky? Probably not, but it's fun to poke them anyway. What is particularly galling is that the definition of "militia" Has been a matter of law for a long time. This is from UNITED STATES v. MILLER et al. Decided May 15, 1939!
The signification attributed to the term Militia appears from the debates in the Convention, the history and legislation of Colonies and States, and the writings of approved commentators. These show plainly enough that the Militia comprised all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense. 'A body of citizens enrolled for military discipline.' And further, that ordinarily when called for service these men were expected to appear bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time.
Wow...plain language...what a concept! The 2nd Amendment has been at the forefront for me for several months, because the People's Republic of New Jersey has been busy trying to eviscerate the clear, unambiguous Supreme Court holding in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen that negated the clearly unconstitutional restrictions on the right of the people of New Jersey to keep and bear arms. Tomorrow the legislature will vote on a collection of vomit-inducing restrictions on the right to bear arms, including making it illegal to carry in one's own car! They are copying the hysterical reaction of the New York state legislature after the Supreme Court smacked down NY's ridiculous anti-gun laws. And like NY, NJ will get a prompt beating from the federal courts. But the damage will be done. Until the new laws wend their way through the court system the legality of public carry in most of New Jersey will be confused. The state police are enthusiastic in their attacks on legal gun possession, and I very much doubt that a murky and confusing set of laws will prevent them from arresting and jailing law-abiding citizens on the flimsiest of pretexts. Never mind that the gun crime rate among legal carry permit holders in America is lower than the gun crime rate among cops. Never mind that there are millions of defensive gun uses each year! Just how many defensive gun uses are there each year? Trying to understand the mushy thinking of the gun grabbers is an exercise in confusion. But the goal is more important than their reasoning. They want to disarm the people so that the only power in America is the government. Why is that? Just ask the people of Venezuela...the people of Cuba...the people of the Soviet Union...the people of communist China...the people of North Korea...and on and on and on.

"At least 18 people were injured after shots were fired at Club Q in Colorado Springs just before midnight, a police spokesperson has confirmed."
"They say it is too early to determine if the shooting was a targeted hate crime."
"It is unclear how the suspect was injured, though early reports suggest the gunmen was subdued by patrons inside the club, which had been sponsoring a drag show earlier in the night."

It's funny, I never had a problem understanding the 2nd Amendment, even as a kid.
The first time I had EVER heard the theory that it was about the "National Guard" having the right to have firearms was a dingbat liberal professor in college.
Just think about how stupid that is, that the Founders wanted to make sure the military at the time could own firearms.

Selling or transferring a gun in Oregon becomes illegal on December 8th, as the Measure 114 gun law goes into effect.
That is because the cops have to issue a permit to you (after interviewing you and testing you at the range), and there is no permit system in place, and no funding for a permit system.
This is deliberate on the part of the people behind the law. (Thanks, Mike Bloomberg!)
The assumption is that a judge will issue a temporary restraining order to suspend the law until the legal appeals are heard - but if the case goes to an Obama or Clinton judge, that may not happen.

If the Left were using grammar as a good faith argument about the meaning of the 2d Amendment, then it would be good to have counter arguments to address that.
It isn't good faith. It's all chaff to throw in the air to make people argue about it.
The 2d Amendment says the government shall not infringe on us keeping and bearing arms. That is it. The Left just wants us to not keep and bear arms, so they will say or do anything in furtherance of that.

Miller was (is) a dog's breakfast. The court analyzed "militia" but decided to just ignore their own lyin' eyes in order to say that a short-barreled shotgun was not a weapon that would be used by one. Well, they didn't actually say that. They twisted words like a Rubik's cube to say that "it was not in judicial notice... blah blah blah." Meaning that the defense didn't introduce evidence that a trench gun was a real thing. Just two decades after WWI! Because there was no defense. Because Miller was dead and his council decided there was no reason they should show up. It's a freaking travesty that no Court since has had the stones to admit the obvious and strike down NFA '34.

The vote for the 114 anti-gun bill followed the traditional patterns of Oregon voting - 114 (with 99% of the vote in) got a majority of the vote in only six of the 36 counties.
Outside of Multnomah County (Portland's county), 114 lost by 146,000 votes, but 114 won by 171,000 in Multnomah County, leading to a winning margin of 25,000 statewide.
Oregon is a moderate Republican state - except for Portland, which votes 75%-80% for the Left, which invariably swings the whole state to the Left. Every Republican candidate for governor for the last twenty-five years has gotten the most votes in the state - except for the county that Portland is in, so every Republican candidate has lost.

So. I really think I could carry the SA EMP Ronin in 9 mm. In the 3 inch barrel. It's 9+1, so legal here in WA State. I can shoot the shit out of it.
Need to bring a holster to the range and next time I rent it, see how it feels. It's a much more powerful piece than my G42.
As far as "following the law" about carrying in your car, CBD... So they really think that will cut down on the drive by shootings by young thugs? I'm sure as hell not driving anywhere in Seattle without a firearm. How will they even know you have a gun in the car? Is the highway patrol going to start randomly pulling people over and searching them? And who will they pull over? The young thugs in the Lexus and tinted windows, blaring rap music with clouds of pot smoke pouring from the sunroof? Or the 50 yo white dude in an Audi?

Who has the right to food, a well-balanced breakfast or the people?"

There's no good faith "misunderstanding" going on. They know what the Founders intended and why they put it in there.
It's sort of like over the last 40 years, the argument against owning certain guns has been "you don't need that to hunt with!!!" (as if the Founders put it in there because they were avid hunters)
The Left certainly doesn't misunderstand Bruen, they just don't like it and hope to "kill the clock" until they get a ruling on guns they like again.
Biggest problem is, we've had a shit Supreme Court for about the last 80 years that has looked the other way on gun control, until now.

What tells me the Left is acting in bad faith is that they have never attempted to change the 2nd Amendment with the tool the Constitution provides.
The Left intends to use extra-Constitutional means to change the Constitution in a number of areas, including the Second Amendment, abolishing the Electoral College, abolishing the Senate, and much else. None of these can be done through the amendment process, since there is not enough support for them.
Some people might call wanting to use extra-Constitutional means to change the Constitution an "insurrection" - but that term only applies to MAGA-hat wearers.

One of the arguments I hear lately, about guns and other things, is that it's rather pointless to argue about what's written into law.
How are they being enforced?
Are there DAs letting illegal aliens out after committing heinous crimes, so they can commit more heinous crimes?
Why yes, yes there are. So whatever your local laws or the Constitution says, the tyranny under which we are living comes down to men and their deeds. Conservatives seem to spend more time than is useful, arguing over words.

After reading comments by the framers, I have come to the conclusion they decided we need a militia (armed forces). And to keep them from going all George III they need to be regulated, and the easiest way to do it is with an armed populace, you know, the people with a right to keep and bear arms.

"How will they even know you have a gun in the car? "
Usually they ask, right away.
Also when they swipe the magnetic strip on your license, all kinds of data comes up. Priors, outstanding warrants, citations, etc.
Could easily include gun ownership records (which they're not supposed to have but I'm unconvinced).

I find it hilarious that all the leftists pass anti-2nd Amendment this and anti-2nd Amendment that and continually harass lawful gun owners but ignore or want real criminals with firearms to get let off the hook.
If the ATF and DOJ et al spent as much time going after the gang banging cartels in our large blue urban shit holes, lives may be saved.
But we all know why they don't.
They are cowards. All of them.

I feel for y'all morons who live in states like NY and Jersey. The Constitution is merely a convenient piece of paper to them. To be waved around when it benefits their narrative and to be ignored when it doesn't. Fuck em.

So Oregon no longer has a 2nd Constitution amendment
Good to know
It will get reversed eventually, but the hope of the gun-grabbers is that the firearms industry in Oregon will be destroyed before the law gets reversed.
Oh, and magazines over ten rounds are banned. Existing magazines that you own are grandfathered in, but it's up to **you** to prove that you owned the magazine before the law went into effect. The default assumption is that the larger magazine is illegal.
Reversing centuries of English common law - you have to prove your innocence - the government doesn't have to prove your guilt.

CBS sets the narrative:
"The motive behind Saturday's shooting was not immediately known but..."
1. "The latest incident occurred as anti-gay rhetoric has intensified by extremists."
2. "Colorado Springs is a city ... that is home to ... Focus on the Family, a prominent evangelical Christian ministry."
3. "In November 2015, three people were killed and eight wounded at a Planned Parenthood clinic in the city"
4, "... it occurred in a state that has experienced several notorious mass killings, including at Columbine High School in 1999, a movie theater in suburban Denver in 2012 and at a Boulder supermarket last year."
5. "In June, 31 members of the neo-Nazi group Patriot Front were arrested in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, and charged with conspiracy to riot at a Pride event."
6. "The previous month, a fundamentalist Idaho pastor told his small Boise congregation that gay, lesbian and transgender people should be executed by the government,"

Th gun-grabbers in Oregon say that more than 500 people in Oregon die every year from "gun violence".
85% of those are suicides.
Arguing that guns should be restricted to keep them out of the hands of suicidal people is hilarious in Oregon, which has had legal assisted suicide for years. The State of Oregon will even pay the costs of your assisted suicide if you are low-income.
Remember, in Oregon, suicide is A-OK - but only if you don't do it with a gun.

In the "prayer of the faithful" at Mass today they added "for the end of the death penalty."
I muttered "heresy."
The section on the fifth commandment in the "Catechism of the Council of Trent" states "Another kind of lawful slaying belongs to the civil authorities, to whom is entrusted the power of life and death, by the legal and judicious exercise of which they punish the guilty and protect the innocent. The just use of this power, far from involving the crime of murder, is an act of paramount obedience to this Commandment which prohibits murder. The end of the Commandment is the preservation and security of human life. Now the punishments inflicted by the civil authority, which is the legitimate avenger of crime, naturally tend to this end, since they give security to life by repressing outrage and violence."

84 Many years ago, while stationed at NAF DC (Andrews) the AF and Navy decided to have a mass barracks shake down. Our skipper decided to inform everybody, one at a time (Only about 40 Cpls and below in the outfit). I reported to the CO in my most regimental way ( I was good at stuff like that) and he said at least somebody knows how to report. Asks me if I might have any contraband in my room, and I tell him just a .45 and a Smith and Wesson model 41 .22. Tells me to wait in the passageway, I do a smart about face and wait. SgtMaj comes out, says put them in my workspace wall locker.

Among the many other problems of maleducation is this one, and to an extent it’s our own fault. We’ve become habituated to asserting “Constitutional right(s) to [bear arms, peaceably assemble, etc].” I realize it’s supposed to be an effective shorthand for the true meaning, but we ought to refer rather to the true meaning.
The rights in question are inherent, inalienable, God-given. We should be asserting our inalienable right to self-defense.
The Constitution is supposed to constrain governments to uphold these rights; possibly also to arbitrate disagreements between free citizens when the exercise thereof infringes one of their inalienable rights. I didn’t give any government permission to be the arbiter of the existence of the rights mentioned.

This will either be buried or used to push the narrative of "hate crimes against the 'transgender' community". Whichever will work better politically for the Left will be pushed.
There is growing animosity of parents and just normal people in general towards this gender dysphoria and sexualization of children radical movement. Going to be interesting to see if this was planned to be used by the Deep State to now go after anyone and everyone organizing against the Left's radical movement or if this will be memory-holed to hide the Left's radical movement.

A contributing factor is that with the failure and collapse of the militia system during the conflicts after the Civil War, very few people understand why anyone would think that a well-regulated militia is essential to the security of a *free* state in the first place.
Of course, if they did, socialists and globalists would object to it as much as they do a populace armed for personal defense and be even more eager to do away with the militia as well.

"What is particularly galling is that the definition of "militia" has been a matter of law for a long time. "
Not just Supreme Court jurisprudence, either. It's a matter of black letter Federal law, 10USC246, which DEFINES the U.S militia as all able bodied male citizens seventeen and older, and less than forty five. Again, that's the definition, not enlistment eligibility. Seventeen is roughly high school juniors. Teachers and administrators that do not prepare their students to exercise the rights and responsibilities of militia service by the time they graduate from high school have FAILED or SABOTAGED their students and their communities, and should be replaced. School districts that do not do this should have their federal funding cut off, down to the last penny.

We have passed the point of well reasoned debate in America, even to some extent inside our system of jurisprudence.
We have reached the time when every man must decide which rules and regulations are acceptable to the higher authority and principles which have been deemed to be determinate of that faith and value set.
There will come a time in which you will suffer greatly for that faith and value set and which you may be driven to defend fiercely that faith and value set in defense of your fellow man, though you may not always feel kindred for him.
Christ went to the cross for the people, though they were the same people that were his mockers, persecutors, and executioners. He understood that they could not see or reconcile what they were doing, that they were blind to the wickedness of their own actions and ignorant of true truth.
If you walk in His path, you too will be called upon to bear the weight of righteousness in all its fullness.

While we're populating the wish-list, how bouts no-knock warrants, and civil asset forfeiture?

Sure. While we're at it I'd also like a pair of horny 22-year-old bisexual Ukrainian chicks. Maybe Santa can hook me up this year. Also a yacht and a billion dollars in an offshore bank account.

Note that they said “shall not be infringed” meaning that they believed the right existed before they wrote the amendment.

I always ask Gun grabbers why they haven't attempted to use the tool the Constitution gives them to change what they don't like instead of trying unconstitutionally to use the courts to do their dirty work?

Yea, that's definitely true.
What's funny is I had a father that was not into guns, but had the generic hunting shotgun in the closet that mostly just collected dust.
My brother and I though became huge gun nuts for some reason.

Dominion is privately owned and managed by equity firm Staple Street Capital. My guess is they're not selling.
Here's a 2010 SEC Form for Soros Fund Management. Dominion is listed (link to original SEC.GOV text page):

Now you'll have to see if there's more to this than just share ownership.

Here's my version:
A well-nourished militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and eat food, shall not be infringed.

Mark my words: within 15 years the states will be regularly deploying NG...
I believe you are optimistic on that point. My guess is that will happen regularly within five years.
First such deployment within two years.

Citing from CBD's original post: "They want to disarm the people so that the only power in America is the government. Why is that?"

To ask is to answer: They intend to do "something" that rational citizens with ready access to guns would *shoot them dead* for.

“People's Republic of New Jersey”
Would be amusing if it wasn’t true. Now it’s just sad.
Currently, there’s no Trenton Wall, no one’s forcing you to live in New Jersey.
Though now I understand why you have a hard-on for DeSantis.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State"
The American revolution began when the British army was trying to confiscate arms from the militia. This statement provides a reason for the right, but not necessarily the only reason. If this statement was left out one might assume that the 2nd only applied to arms for individual self defense, since self defense is obviously a right in itself. But the Founders were well aware that the right should also apply to the militia for political purposes, since they recently experienced the Brits violating that right. And, note that they were also aware it was an issue that came up in the 1687 Glorious Revolution, and the English Bill of Rights also has a right to bear arms for the same reason.
