RE: Multiple Cities Come Together to Pass Ordinances Making it Illegal to Ban Guns

yeah that saying means many different things to different people...but i like this definition "well trained group of farmers who aren't affiliated with the government"

some people want to twist this and think that it means military, but the founding fathers were against the idea of a military

and i can see why

Sort:  

A militia by definition wouldn't be the military so those people be crazy but "well trained group of farmers who aren't affiliated with the government" doesn't say "well-regulated" to me. To be honest, that amendment is a mess, not only is it outdated (written at the time of muskets basically) but it also leaves too much room for different interpretations.
