Yet another of our rights is hanging in the balance...

[olde_fashioned]

The US Supreme Court is hearing a case regarding our second amendment right to keep and bear arms. Those of you who are concerned at potentially losing one of our rights that should be inalienable, please, please pray that the judges will make the right decision.

"The issue has polarized judges, politicians and the public for decades: do the Second Amendment's 27 words bestow gun ownership as an individual right, or a collective one -- aimed at the civic responsibilities of state militias -- and therefore subject perhaps to strict government regulation."

I for one believe in Original Intent -- surely the Founding Fathers did not believe that we only have a right to possess weapons if we're in a civilian militia! This is a pathetic attempt to disarm the masses, and violate our Constitutional rights! The Bible says that God answers prayer, and hopefully in this instance it will avert a potentially disastrous decision.

If you want to comment with either an agreeing or disagreeing opinion, then that is more than fine with me, only I am tired of getting loud-mouthed trolls trying to start fires and fights. I'm not trying to suppress anyone's freedom of speech, just trying to save myself a headache.

My only opposition against this amendment is that guns do not kill. People who pull the triggers DO. And if one cannot use a gun to kill, they will find some other form of weapon.

To me, it is the human being's desire and willingness to kill that is the real danger, not a gun, knife or any other kind of weapon.

You're right! Perfectly perfectly right. ;-)
