The 'issue' is, the Bill of Rights are Not rights given by Gov., they are absolute restriction On Gov. of rights Not to be infringed since day one. Any and every elected official that attempts to ignore those rights should be tried for sedition/treason. THAT is Why The 2nd Amendment was 2nd.
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State..."
Form militias.
'Xactly. It's amazing how people don't READ the 2nd amendment.
The army used to consist of state militias. The Dick Act (officially The Militia Act of 1903) formalized the militias desired by the Founding Fathers into the National Guard.
This preempted The Militia Act of 1792 which required every able‑bodied male citizen aged 18–45 to enroll in the militia, undergo periodic training, and be subject to federal call‑up.
I think we should start looking at laws that that need to be repealed (e.g. The Dick Act, the 17th Amendment, etc.)
Every militia formed with have 3 actual members and 100 glowies. Historically speaking, of course.
Repeal the Dick Act and make ever able bodied mail from 18 - 45 report for drill one weekend a month in accordance with The Militia Act of 1792.
Best way to read that: well-trained and organized citizens with guns.
I've always thought that's how you could challenge the states banning "assault rifles". You can't go out, buy a race car, and drive in Formula 1. You have to prove yourself. This is where "well regulated" comes in. If you are in a regulated (trained and disciplined) militia, then they can not infringe on your right to ownership. While the states may have an argument against ownership, if you are in a militia, they can't touch you.
Militias could serve many functions. Think of something not quite the fire dept, not quite the sheriff, not quite the reserves. If there was a disaster like a hurricane, the militia could be called up to assist.
No SCOTUS has already made clear what that means. You don’t actually need membership in a militia in any way. We are all already militia.
Shall not be infringed is clear as day to me.

Go after the blue states, and cities, that are violating 2A and prosecuting people exercising self defense.
The Japanese did not attack the US mainland at the west coast because they were concerned about how many armed Americans they might encounter. How times have changed.
The Founding Fathers would be shooting by now…
Actually they'd be cleaning and celebrating by now....
They would have been cleaning up 3 months after the Federal Reserve Act was passed.
We shame their memory.
It’s seditious…since the word’s been used a lot lately. And embarrassing.
Pretty soon, people will call basic embezzlement or fraud treason, then we look crazy.
This is an encouraging development.
Some have apparently been shocked by the Trump administration’s focus on the Second Amendment, which protects a right many previous administrations openly opposed.
Reuters, for example, quoted Stacey Young, a former Civil Rights Division attorney, as saying, “The Civil Rights Division’s new focus on the Second Amendment, which is far outside its longstanding mission, is moving us even further away from our nation’s commitment to protecting all Americans’ civil rights.” [Emphasis is ours.]
Yet another reason we have the 2A.....
Just how well has the Department of Education served the cause of education since its inception? And the Department of Energy? Or Health?
They all serve the opposite of their name.

Indeed, and that is why 'real' gun rights groups , like the GOA, have some valid concerns about this. I'm not ready to call this a win until it proves to be.
Insert examples of unconstitutional gun laws around the country here.
When I drive through blue states I’m always concerned about the small arsenal I carry in my automobile. Hopefully this office makes those concerns less pressing.
The communist states will just ignore it, and federal "judges" will protect them.
A kindler, gentler, machine gun hand...
