oh, that's right ... you'd prefer we can't defend ourselves ... thanks but NO thanks.
Sure looks like it's working fine now doesn't it? The world was a lot different 200 years ago, for starters "arms" were muskets, there were no rifles, semi-automatic or automatic weapons. I don't think I need to explain how society has changed.edit on 12-1-2013 by SpearMint because: (no reason given)

Its needed, and this is the last time i am going to explain it to you, because it is the foundation of americas principles. Just because washington chooses to ignore the constituition doesnt make it irrelevant, if anything it makes it more true than ever before. The constituition didnt leave them, they left it. It may be irrelevant to TPTB, and you obviously,that does not make it irrelevant as a whole. You just dont get it. I cant explain it to you because you dont want to get it. You want it to be irrelevant, you want it to be meaningless. You dont understand that to me, and many like me, its more than a piece of paper, that its as significant now as it was when it was written. And is it any wonder, that the farther we get from it in its origianl form, the crappier society gets? Maybe that why you dont respect it, because you dont understand that it is perfect the way it is, and the more you amend it......the crappier things get. I dont think i can explain it anymore sir.

Piers Morgan finally gets a dose of his own medicine when Al Shapiro (of Breitbart.com) lays into Morgan with some real facts and logic. Morgan, as usual lately, gets angry and "slammed" down the U.S. Constitution book that Shapiro had given him at the beginning of the show and called it "your little book".
Here's the interview:
Shapiro did an amazing job of putting Morgan in his place. One thing I would've done differently in the interview if I were Shapiro is when Morgan asked why any citizen needed a military-style assault weapon, Shapiro stated that sometimes governments go tyrannical. And while that is true and why the Second Amendment was written, I would've also stated that while citizens may not necessarily need assault weapons, it is their right to keep and bear them if they so choose.
For those that can't watch the video, a full transcript of the interview is also posted at Breitbart.com.

Oh yah the guns they had back then had BAYONETS for jabbing people in between reloads. And they still had cannons too, because the style of fighting involved lines and columns and the cannonballs were used to break up the lines. What difference does any of that make? It is just different techniques for fighting.
Now we have Depleted Uranium and sound weapons to mess with people...that is the govt does...yah it's a different world alright.

No, I haven't even suggested that.
When someone is destroying their self with drugs others step in, it's not always welcome. It's harder when there's 300 million of them though, probably should just let it happen.

2 actually if you properly include the War of 1812. What about the wars that you fought side by side? WW's 1 & 2. Korea. The War on Terror.
It almost looks like Jones is bi-polar.
Their father is a Harris County Precinct 1 deputy constable, and the boy knew what he had to do to keep himself and his sister alive. Around 2:30 PM, two men tried to break in, with one going through the front door and the other in the back.
