Free speech is under attack now too. It would seem the American people are being seen to not be smart enough to understand the written and spoken word anymore.I'm probably the least likely person here to have any kind of opinion about all this, in fact, I'd offer as an excuse that 'Naive' is probably my middle name.
BUT, and the but here, like that of the late Fatty Arbuckle*, is VERY large, I watched the inauguration along with my American neighbour. We both saw your new President with his hand is the air, swearing by Almighty G*d to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America.
Not some of it.
Not the bits he happened to like, but ALL of it.
NO picky-choosey.
So how is it that he and his cronies are so determined to remove from it such a fundamental part as 2A?
TBH, I don't expect to get a simple answer, and I'm sorry if my question has caused offence in any quarter.
*Fatty Arbuckle would now have to be called something felt to be less than offensive, like Grossly-overweight Arbuckle, or 'Clinically-obese Arbuckle'. In much the same way, 'Slim Pickens' would have to rethink his moniker.
