A point, if true, is a shame as to motive. Now to use the article’s logic:<br /><br />""Why don't they just rise up and kill the whites?" If the movie were real, it would have been a purely rhetorical question, because every southerner of the era knew the simple answer: Well regulated militias kept the slaves in chains."<br /><br />Change the word ‘militias’ to ‘governments’, leave the rest, and think it over as today’s slavery is not bound by color. Governments have done plenty of trampling upon their own people in the last century, regardless of color.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752027331714385066.post-47392681451673769272013-01-27T18:55:18.910-08:002013-01-27T18:55:18.910-08:00Well, obviously, you can't confuse 'em wit...Well, obviously, you can't confuse 'em with the facts and make 'em happy at the same time, can you?<br /><br />What amazes me so much in this debate is the continued insistence on the idea of arms at home to resist some kind of totalitarian takeover by the federal government. Aside from the sheer lunacy of the thing, let's just look at the practical aspect. The only way one can maintain that rationale is to maintain at the same time the notion that the Second Amendment's intent is to allow a private citizen to keep in and around his home whatever would be necessary to resist government troops and materiel. In other words, in this age, you'd need RPGs, bazookas, tanks, nuclear weapons, chemical weapons...what else? Anybody want to defend the idea that citizens should be able to do this, so they can resist the government?stephenfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752027331714385066.post-16150909473024762512013-01-27T09:11:12.792-08:002013-01-27T09:11:12.792-08:00After eight years of 80 hour weeks of research, th...After eight years of 80 hour weeks of research, this is the first mention (Undocumented) of such horse crap I have encountered. Race bating is evident here, so go home, lick your wounds, and remember, gun confiscation is how governments prepare their citizen to be murdered with little loss of their own lives.

While you're groping around down there, yank the other one. Its got bells on. <br /><br />If anything, the militia imposition upon <b><i>non</i></b>-slaveholding Whites in the southern states was yet another economic burden which the majority of the population (the poorest, naturally) had to sustain in order to preserve that "peculiar institution," and one of the many reasons for abolitionist sentiments in those states up until Lincoln sent armies into those sovereign states to enforce the Morrill Tariff. <br /><br />Stand on Little Round Top and look down across Bloody Run into Devil's Den and consider what had impelled those brigades in butternut and grey - the men in the ranks, not the officers - to join in the attack on that hill on that hideous July day in 1863. <br /><br />I strongly suspect that it was because "those people" in the blue suits looked a helluva lot like tax collectors.Tucci78http://www.ncc-1776.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752027331714385066.post-39273864134555060542013-01-27T05:02:39.275-08:002013-01-27T05:02:39.275-08:00Excuse me Sir but, you are so full of "SH*T&q...Excuse me Sir but, you are so full of "SH*T" you reek of it.

Look at the options- Hitler stripped the Germans of their arms and kills millions, Stalin takes over a disamred populace and murders millions, Mao does the same.

This article only provides speculative ancillary reasons for the second amendment being a method for controlling slaves with little to no supporting information. It is clear to me that the reason for the second amendment was to allow the citizens to retaliate if and when the government becomes tyrannical. The founders said so in their writing as wall as the Indictment section of the Declaration of Independence. <br /><br />To me the above article is little more than race baiting.<br /><br />You might like to review this video:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F584p5kJL-U&feature=youtu.beAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752027331714385066.post-82451063465186427052013-01-26T08:07:57.785-08:002013-01-26T08:07:57.785-08:00You have got to be kidding.

It was ratified because of cougars and black bears. it was ratified because it was a way of getting game. And they did not want the govt. to take it away from them. NEWS FLASH PEOPLE. The Communist Chinese Army has access to 200 million men. And we owe them a lot of money. Get these over vaccinated, malnourished children off of these horrible drugs. beholdapalehorse.tvAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
