@GSpellchecker @Joe35357 Many began as ruralist, patriarchal Christian cultures with violent histories. Canada/UK/Japan eg.s apply equally.
@MistaHix The 2nd amendment doesn't technically have to be struck so long as people agree to 1-shot muskets. THAT was the intent.

@emlynaddison but it doesn't say "musket", does it? What do you think the NRA lawyers would do to that argument?
-
@MistaHix "Arms" would--COULD--have only been intended to mean what it meant when it was defined: muskets. Strange but inescapable. -
@emlynaddison Do you seriously think you can get the courts to rule only muskets allowed? If not, move on.

@emlynaddison Im British mate! I know all this. *We* didnt have the constitutional issues you face. Nor history/culture. Thats the point.
-
@MistaHix This is why I think to beat constitutional fundamentalists you have to be even more literal: single-shot rifles and that's IT. -
@emlynaddison Great! Just get that definition through the courts & we're in business! Shouldn't take you long, I'll wait here...
