Reading the section below is amazing. I didn't really think that anyone in power took the events from over 200 years ago that serious anymore. When ever you attempt to use that type of reasoning in a conversation with the anti's, or fence sitters, you get that "look", like ancient history isn't that relevant in these times.
Irony
Perhaps the irony of § 32310 escapes notice. The reason for the adoption of the Second Amendment was to protect the citizens of the new nation from the power of an oppressive state. The anti-federalists were worried about the risk of oppression by a standing army. The colonies had witnessed the standing army of England marching through Lexington to Concord, Massachusetts, on a mission to seize the arms and gunpowder of the militia and the Minutemen—an attack that ignited the Revolutionary war. With Colonists still hurting from the wounds of war, the Second Amendment guaranteed the rights of new American citizens to protect themselves from oppressors foreign and domestic. So, now it is ironic that the State whittles away at the right of its citizens to defend themselves from the possible oppression of their State.
Sure is sweet.
I saved a copy of that quote - I'll be re-posting that everywhere I can. I hope all future lawsuits fighting for 2A rights make a reference to this as well.
