They ARE NOT PRIVILEGES! The second amendment is a God given right. The Constitution does not restrict the people. It is supposed to restrict the government.

The guys in Scotland, Wales, UK, Australia. They have A LOT of opinions on what it means to be an American and about our laws.

Well, in simple terms...he swore an oath to uphold and protect the Constitution. The words of the Second Amendment are not hard to understand to the point of needing to be "interpreted"...they are what they are.
However, the First Amendment is also pretty clear and we have witnessed this President and the previous one stepping all over it. The Patriot Act, NDAA and HR347 are all...in one form or another, violations of the Constitution that have not been properly dissected and challenged by the people...we just let them bend us over and stuff these "declarations"...well,you know where...
Do not be fooled folks, this is not a "Democrat" or "Republican" agenda...it is a blatant move by those behind the curtain to slowly erode our rights away and change the very nature and structure of this country...and they will.
Who are they? That is a good question. My gut tells me it is the extremely wealthy and privileged that truly believe they are evolutionarily superior and we, the herds, must be managed under their watchful control.edit on 1/15/2013 by Jeremiah65 because: (no reason given)

I think obama should be impeached, charged with treason and put to death and made an example of. I think the biggest problem now days in politics unlike a hundred years ago is there is no deterrent for anything you can pretty much do ANYTHING you want and what is anyone going to do? Nothing, if you are president you are still going to get a paycheck for life and a security detail and likely you made millions while president if you weren't already rich so what do they care.
There should be many mandatory test you should have to undergo that are publicly available before even being considered as president. Like mental health, physical, IQ tests, and anything else that would make sure we don't have mentally ill sociopaths running our country.

He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.”

Gotcha
One could argue that it is an indirect right from GOD.
It's unclear how many of the 19 options the president would eventually take up. Those options could include more aggressively enforcing existing gun laws, beefing up national research on guns and ordering stricter action against people who lie on gun sale background checks.

They could include ordering tougher penalties for gun-trafficking offenses and ordering federal agencies to make data on gun crimes more readily available. Read more: www.foxnews.com...

That is probably what the Russians, Chinese and Cubans thought also......
