Great thoughts and good discussion after.

From the article


--- Quote ---It is only logical that, to remain the nation the founders intended us to be, ?we the people? should be armed and equipped similarly to our professional soldiers. The founders would approve of the citizenry and the military being armed with small arms that use the same ammunition, magazines, and optics as those used by our military professionals.

Doubtless, the modern civilian AR-15 rifle and its variants are the modern ?militia guns? the founders would approve of today. These semi-automatic firearms, which best accord with the militia function the founders recognized, must be regarded as the contemporary firearm best protected by the Second Amendment as written and conceived.

I agree 100%

Lorimor:
None. 

Instead, they would be shouting, "My God people, have you learned nothing from history?"

A-FIXER:

--- Quote ---It is the armed citizen that holds the line when the police run away and the National Guard fails. It is the militia that overthrows tyranny. Sadly, it is also a fact that the lack of a properly armed citizenry has allowed tyranny to sometimes prevail.

To me it is this thought of the writer is why none, nor should there be limits to the ingenuity of the citizen who would create the platform for self preservation in any manner to acheive this result
