THE SECOND AMENDMENT WILL NEVER END.
I’m an authoritative interpreter of the second amendment, and there are others. The NRA has nothing to do with interpreting the constitution. There is a constitutional process for modification of that amendment. Use it. You can’t. Because it will fail. Why? First, it wouldn’t obtain the commonality of votes of the States. Second, and more importantly, because Rule of Law of Natural, Common, Concurrent, Discovered Law and the Constitution that embodies its application in institutions to govern under it, requires reciprocal insurance of individual sovereignty by every citizen by force of arms. In other words, the second amendment is the insurance clause that prevents the conversion of natural, concurrent, common, law – which is a total prohibition on ANY authority – to a document, and then a government, of authority that violates the natural concurrent, common, law. Which is what you want. You want to circumvent Concurrency and Commonality, The Natural Law of Sovereignty and Reciprocity, and the Responsibility of reciprocal insurance by all of all. In other words by attacking the 2nd you’re violating commonality, concurrency, reciprocity, sovereignty, and our right, obligation, and inalienation, to insure that sequence.
Our constitution is an articulation of the science of cooperation – the culmination of five thousand years of prohibition on authority, respect for sovereignty, and demand for individual responsibility. To prohibit authority it requires as did our ancient laws it evolved from,
Our constitution requires the second amendment, because the existence of rule of law, and the prohibition of rule of authority, requires the second amendment, and we are all citizens required to respect it, because that is where sovereignty and responsibility lies: in the people. Not the government. Not anyone else. And that individual sovereignty and responsibility are only possible under this constitution – the only constitution worth the paper it’s written on, on this earth. Every other constitution is a fantasy story imitation of ours.
So, no. I don’t trust you in authority. Or anyone else. And if you’ve created a dysfunctional society, with a dysfunctional education system, and dysfunctional families, and dysfunctional individuals, by propagating dysfunctional lies that we can be free of the physical, behavioral, and evolutionary laws, by some sort of new religion by social construction – then you are the danger not only to us, to our country, to our civilization, but to all the goods past present and future that have come from European peoples over the past 5000 years, that have almost exclusively dragged mankind out of ignorance, superstition, hard labor, poverty, starvation, disease, suffering, child mortality, early death, the vicissitudes of nature all but hostile to man, in a universe that is other was a vast irradiated wasteland hostile to life.
The West is evolved to maximize individual responsibility at the cost of greater possibility of internal conflict, which must be resolved by rational argument or a jury in court – because there is no authority other than the people and the law and the our law alone is the science of cooperation. Your attempt to violate the laws of nature, and to create a false fantasy religion, for the purpose of ending responsibility, so that you are no longer responsible for the reciprocal insurance of all of us against those very behaviors that lead to mental illness, criminality, and worse, — you’re the problem.
Grow up. Man Up. Take Responsibility. Fix the people. And to fix people you must have a standard to conform them to, and the only standard is the laws of nature, and that law of nature of human cooperation is the natural, common, concurrent, judge-discovered law, or sovereignty reciprocity duty and truth-before-face, regardless of cost – that maximizes individual responsibility regardless of how much you wish to escape it.
