We should give up all our weapons so we are completely defenseless against our racist, corrupt leaders.

That is the only solution to the mental health crisis and all of you are too racist to see that.

This chart illustrates how dangerous black guns are

No to a progressive white woman it represents how racist the cops and the legal system is. It is their default response to all crime statistics that end socioeconomics.

Not only are the police racist but prisons are a form of modern slavery. White men locking up innocent black men for no reason other than free labor. Being black in america has been a crime for 400 years

The 2nd amendment doesn't necessarily give you the rights that you believe have been taken away. It doesn't say anything about machine guns or bump stocks or even semi-automatic weapons; it's just ambiguous enough to be left open to interpretation.

That said, even if it did grant citizens the right to own automatic weapons or rocket launchers or whatever, simply saying that it's unconstitutional to take them away is a weak ass argument.

>seething

I'm not trying to be a dick but my guess is you're pretty young right? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here but the right to bear "arms" was left vague for the very reason of giving it a wide coverage.

Semantics aside the theme of the Second Amendment is basically the rights to Rebelle if shit hits the fan. When the first amendment fails you go to the second. All of the founding fathers writings about the Second Amendment reinforce this. I mean if you want better gun control good luck but you really shouldn't use the Second Amendment to get there because it's pretty clear.

I agree. I do think there will be amendments in the near future, though.

Not really. Just pointing out a few facts.

One you're making a gigantic assumption that in any scenario of a revolution it would literally be Joe Blow with his AR-15 against the US Army. This notion is retarded and in a realistic scenario it would be fraction and portions of the army using local gorilla support.

You don't think an armed man using what resources he has around him is effective?

>I do think there will be amendments in the near future, though.

youre absolutely free to be wrong about anything.

Why don't these same people "demand action" against alcohol and cigarettes too? Those two things kill FAR more Americans per year than guns.

I never even suggested that. You should stop strawmanning.

Here's what I do think: the possibility of the Constitution completely being tossed and our system of government being replaced by an authoritarian regime in which the military turns on the citizens is so slim that it's a paranoid idea and not worth worrying about. And if that happens... let it burn, because everything has completely gone to shit.

thats a new one. good job it only takes you guys 3+ years to come up with a decent meme but good job anyway

This isn’t a liberal thing...it’s an American thing. We Americans respond to tragedy by insisting that it could have been prevented. You only hear from liberals on the gun issue because most of them don’t own and have no interest in owning guns. Which is a shame, because owning and shooting guns is fun, it helps you develop discipline and good safety habits (you will learn how to identify the sound of gunfire and even the caliber associated with it very quickly), and it can give you a feeling of safety and security that is actually lacking in about one half of the world’s liberal population. Banning assault rifle sales will not solve this problem, as there are too many of these rifles already out there, and people who commit crimes like this are very good at meticulously plotting to get their hands on them. The argument here boils down to “we need to do something.” It worksindependent of whether the solution is practical, and, surprisingly, works independent of whether it will actually solve the problem.

>You really don't have to reach to far to find contemporary papers on the topic from the people that conceived the bill of rights
Well, then it shouldn't be difficult to provide a citation from the people who conceived the bill of rights that pokes holes in my position.

And as I alluded to earlier, even if the constitution allowed people to own any weapon they could get their hands on, that wouldn't be a proper justification in and of itself.

80 year olds with assault weapons sound like an awful idea, why the fuck did you even post this?

>Oh really? It explicitly states this? Gonna need a source on that, buddy.
Not that user, but:

Source - 2nd Amendment of the United States Constitution:
"A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Throughout the early history of our nation, everything from small arms (individually operated firearms, like rifles and pistols) to Privateers (warships in private hands) and cannons and other large artillery pieces. The right to keep and bear ARMS is intrinsic of ALL ARMS, not just firearms. Justice Scalia (iirc) clarified this many years ago, in fact...

>The whole thing about forming militias was mainly because we didn't have a standing army at the time.
Incorrect. The whole thing about the "militia" was to differentiate the Peoples' right to keep firearms and to form militias (a fighting force NOT under the direct command of any State), in order to ensure no standing force, to include our own government, can usurp the liberty of Americans... Fortunately, the only time in our history that we saw the 2nd flexed was the US civil war. Hopefully, we never have to again, but that may be ignorant well-wishing on my part as of late, since the US "news" media and politicians only care about getting more rich and NOT national cohesion...

No. You've been spewing shit this whole thread and yelling at anything provided. Go back and source any one or your points before we out effort in.

Right, so, I guess it's unconstitutional that we can't have machine guns or anti-aircraft guns, right? And yet we can't have those things. It's almost as if the constitution is open to interpretation and more malleable than you think.

I mean I know you and I are really just talking about semantics here but the point is mute when were talking about what is more deadly.

Aftermarket accessories for gear fags really doesn't do much. Your average school shooter is not competing in 3-gun competitions. Is a collapsible stock or an EOTech sight really going to kill that many more school kids?

Only because the political will wasn't there and groups like the NRA and gun manufacturers have bought and paid for most of the congressional seats. The truth is that a majority of US voters, like 70% nationally, don't think it should be this way. All it takes to change it is another amendment and it's getting to the point where politicians may actually start to cave on this.

>you can legally own machine guns and anti-aircraft guns
You need a special licence from the ATF that's very difficult to obtain. Your average citizen cannot obtain these things.

I've backed up all of my claims with logic. If you need a source for something in particular, lemme know.

Yeah, I addressed this above.

True, but I just think it's funny how this argument only applies to the 2A but not the 1st. And he blatantly says so himself which makes it even funnier.

ammo would cost about 700.00 per shot plus 200.00 for a tax stamp per explosive round. The main gun would also need to be registered as a destructive device. Theres places in vegas that let you drive them but i don't think they use the main gun due to cost.

The 13th amendment doesn’t necessarily guarantee freedom to niggers. It didn’t say anything about amputee niggers or niggers in prison, nothing about child niggers; it’s just ambiguous enough to be left open to interpretation.

That said, even if it did grant niggers the freedom from slavery, or welfare or whatever, simply saying that it’s unconstitutional to own them is a weak ass argument.

No, that's more along the lines of what this moron is suggesting

I dont like your assualt speech, it needs to be banned.

And fuck your assualt religion, and that assualt press needs to be monitored. Only liscensed press people from the goverment should be allowed to write stories.

All Amendments are the SAME under the constitution. They are changed, written and removed and ratified exactly the same. Anything you say about the second amendment, remember the same thing applies to the other amendments. THIS is why the 2nd amendment is important

Do you like your right to vote? What if they say your right to vote requires a background check? Like your freedom of religion? You need a liscense for that.

And if you still dint think its relevant, that AR15 is just as deadly as a 22 pistol. "High powered" is irrelevant. Nobody is wearing body armor, nobody shooting through reinforced walls to murder people. A bullet going through flesh a high rate of speed is going to kill, and pistols are just as fast as rifles. Preferred gun of the wild west? A six shooter.

Hows that for an argument?

>It doesn't say anything about machine guns or bump stocks or even semi-automatic weapons; it's just ambiguous enough to be left open to interpretation.

It says very clearly "The right to bear arms shall not be infringed"
This is not ambiguous or open to interpretation.

The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed — where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.

Wow that's almost like a legit government website. Kek

Shall not be infringed.

Abortions, weed, and illegal immigrants aren't protected by the bill of rights.

Put your dick back in your pants, nobody wants to see that

I don't know but I'm definitely voting for more gun control.

>I dont like your assualt speech, it needs to be banned
If the vast majority of Americans decided that certain kinds of well-defined "hate speech" should be outlawed, guess what... there would probably be an amendment. That's how it works in a Republic.

>And fuck your assualt religion
Now you're just being a petulant child and reaching. Freedom of religion is explicitly stated in the Constitution. But, if the majority of Americans decided that Islam was a religion of violence and could unequivocally prove it, theoretically we could make an exception.

>Anything you say about the second amendment, remember the same thing applies to the other amendments. THIS is why the 2nd amendment is important
Correct. I'm not suggesting we should start chipping away at the constitution, but if I feel like an amendment is reasonable, I'm going to support it.

>Do you like your right to vote? What if they say your right to vote requires a background check?
Who's "they"? If it's the public and our elected officials, I may not be in favor of it, but I'd have to deal with it.

>And if you still dint think its relevant, that AR15 is just as deadly as a 22 pistol
Not really. You should stop lying.

>"High powered" is irrelevant. Nobody is wearing body armor, nobody shooting through reinforced walls to murder people. A bullet going through flesh a high rate of speed is going to kill, and pistols are just as fast as rifles

It has nothing to do with what the 2nd didn't intend either.

>hate speech is just another attempt by totalitarians to put on a nasty label on speech they they don't like, in order to erase a fundamental right
I agree, but that's beside my point.

>You might as well just revoke the Constitution
Give it a few decades. The shitskin mob and their slave masters are heading in that direction.

>The constitution was invented. It's a product of the imagination. Rights are invented. Rights do not exist in nature, brainlet.
That's correct, except you shouldn't say brainlet unless you're looking in the mirror.

Invented things are important. Non-physical things are important. Once you pass the developmental stage where your brain can process abstract concepts, you'll understand that.

You'll probably still be far to the right of the Hitler, tho.

>Being such a big tool that you give money to a pro-gun association just to try to spite someone else.

I want snuggle weapons.

I still can't figure out if that poster was even trying to make any real points

Sounds like another Yea Forums fascist

Looks like grandpa got access to the internet again and is posting facebook memes.

In reality no one can see past their views and beliefs, not just liberals. Especially people who will go to lengths of sharing/pushing their own beliefs onto other people. I just believe what I believe and vote accordingly

Say the word boomer. You know you want to.

That's why liberals give them fake solidarity speeches in public, and have militarized police and eugenics targeting them. Liberals had MLK eating out of their hands.

When you see "the right to bear arms", you see "the right to own any weapon you can get your hands on". When I see "the right to bear arms", I see something that wouldn't make it unconstitutional to outlaw certain weapons because it doesn't specifically state "any weapon that's available". See how this works?

But the bottom line is, the fact that something is in the Constitution doesn't automatically make it reasonable.

Sneaky fuckers. I will keep calling blacks niggers to distract them from the liberals.

>Invented things are important. Non-physical things are important
Well, that depends on the thing, doesn't it? The fact that these are subjective matters makes it a matter of perspective. If you had a basic understanding of these abstract concepts you speak of, you wouldn't have made an argument that was so easy to poke holes in.

>you'll probably still be far to the right of the Hitler, tho
Ideologically I'm more in line with Hitler than not tbh.

This quote is made up - Washington never said it:

politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/feb/20/facebook-posts/did-george-washington-offer-support-individual-gun/

The right to bear arms shall not be infringed. Still clear as fuck.

Tho you've made it very clear that your real objection to the bill of rights isn't based on your inability to parse sentences, but on your rejection of the concept of inalienable, individual, natural rights. Which makes you a totalitarian.

One of columbine shooter was jew so not all seem to be jew

Lol I should have known you can never take a /pol/tard's memes and infographs at face value.

How does it feel to know this is probably the thousandth time someone has said this, but the constitutional justices all disagree with you and have for the past 10 to 30 years?

You were arguing against the existence of abstract things, and now you're admitting their existence but claiming that they're a matter of opinion. That's called shifted the goalposts, aka losing the argument.

>constitutional justices
kek

>but on your rejection of the concept of inalienable, individual, natural rights
It's not exactly a rejection. I'm pointing out facts, whereas you're talking ideology. There are many things that I believe should be considered rights and protected under the law -- however, I don't pretend that they're literally natural or inalienable.

conservatives don't care about you any more than liberals.
You are stupid and nobody cares about you.

>It doesn't matter what the founding tenants of our country are
It must really burn your ass that the fedaralist papers exist and that the justices all disagree with you, huh?

>You were arguing against the existence of abstract things
Context is important. I said they don't exist in nature. Try to keep up, I know it's hard.

Because to be a "liberal" as so many call them is to understand exactly NOTHING about what this country was founded on, liberty, rights of individuals over groups, private property, independence from over-involved government, etc.

These people have never read the federalist papers, don't know who James Madison is, have never touched anything even tangentially related to philosophy in their pathetic short lives... and make no mistake, they're almost entirely under the age of 25. The older ones are the failures and burnouts that never got past their "revolutionary" stage as young adults. Most of those wormed their ways into universities, and infected the next generation with their hatred for their country and fellow countryman

A good deal of the problem with this is that nobody alive today has experienced the real lack of comfort brought on by things not being guaranteed to you by the comfort of a civilized society BECAUSE of said founding principles.

Do you think a teenager of 13 to 16 would be swayed by marxism or socialism if they understood what real hunger pains felt like? If they understood the burn and indignity of a state agent telling you that they know what's good for you, and you need to shut your mouth before they silence you themselves?

If they had even a single lesson to learn where the top grades in their class were redistributed and given to bottom earners, and averaged out at the top, would they chant for redistribution?

You've been arguing about the existence and nature of abstract concepts in general, in a thread about a specific. That's an attempt at distraction, not an valid argument. You could have said you don't think X rights should be protected, and given a reason. But you didn't, you started talking about Platonic abstract shit.

That's been a part of my arguments, but I've also addressed specific things related to the law. It was inevitable that the nature of rights would enter into the discussion, and at no point did I move the goalposts or attempt to distract.

The Founders were liberals. You should use a more precise term.

But your point about comfort is correct. It's telling that after the fall of the Iron Curtain, all you heard was horror stories about Communism. But a generation later, some of the younger generation started praising it. The older generation who remembered the horrors would never support, but they were too used to staying silent, so the younger generation either didn't know, or ignore them.

It's similar with Tianamen Square in China. The elder generation remember is with horror,but the younger generation even know about it because anyone who speaks about is thrown in jail.

In both cases, the horrors of a past generation are hidden or forgotten, and the children make the same mistakes.

>The Founders were liberals
Wrong

Do you think a woman would be swayed to chant for open borders if they had ever encountered men who would shamelessly beat and rape them with no remorse? If they had ever felt the terror of understanding that virtually every man they meet refrains from flat out murdering/raping them NOT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T, but because they are civilized enough to not do so, taught the morality of a person's right to their own body, taught that to infringe on that right is a violation . Israeli women know the value of a border. Women from the Congo know how much a Wall protects them.

What about pain? And not the vague notion of pain felt from a broken bone, pain that has no emotionally charged cause, but true pain caused by another human being? Do you think people would be so quick to scream and cry for compassion for 9th century barbarians if they had any idea of the pain felt by those being quite literally butchered to death with cleavers and knives for their faith by those same barbarians?

Would they want to bring in the Islamic menace if they had read a single passage from a single book by a Christian living in the state of Egypt or Lebanon during the takeover by Islam?


No, the civilized world needs to experience want, and pain, and hunger, and oppression again to understand that the world doesn't *have* to be this comfortable for them. They think the true depth of despair is the seemingly insurmountable student loan they voluntarily took upon themselves, or the abstract knowledge that somewhere, a person is starving to death. They think they know what suffering is, but do they know the pain of a mother getting notice that both her sons have perished in combat? Do they know what feeling a person gets when being told to lick the boot and be thankful for the chance to do so?

No, you moved the goalposts in our discussion. Though that might have been inadvertent -- I only know your replies, while you also know what you said elsewhere. But it's still not a good argument. Debating the nature of abstract principles is one thing, but it's not really relevant in a discussion about specific abstract principles.

Guys play with guns because they are trying to compensate for something. The more guns, and the more dangerous/extravagant/assult-type the gun, the more they are trying to compensate for.

Do you know what I mean?

Shall not be infringed.

It's really clear.

What about women who play with guns?

The world needs to be made less comfortable. We have taken strife away from our children, a resource has never existed more valuable than it. The fuel for competitive fire, rivalry and determination.

You cannot help the caterpillar crawl from its cocoon, or you make it too weak to survive. It must thrash by itself for a time, developing the necessary muscles to thrive on its own, and climb out by itself. To give it aid in this basic task is to doom it before it has the chance to live. It is the very essence of smothering femininity, to do everything for someone until they can do nothing for themselves.

Ironically enough, there are braindead sacks of flesh wasting breath and life that call 21st century America a patriarchy, there has never existed a society that worships the feminine any more than America. Society must "remasculinize" rapidly to even hope to have a chance at life.

Yes, I agree and that's why I put quotation marks around the word liberals when I typed that, but character limit prevented me from expounding on that when I had nearly an essay of thoughts to write

Modern day "liberals" are just about as illiberal as a person could quite possibly be. The very idea of guns being licensed and controlled by the state is singularly anathema to anything our founding fathers stood for. That alone would draw a person out of classification as liberal, let alone being able to talk themselves through the mental gymnastics required for support of abortion, re-distributive wealth policies, and death/wealth/estate taxes (along with fifty other various money grab taxes)

Nice try foreigner. The United States is the center of the world

So edgy. I've read Locke, I've read the Federalist papers, I've dealt with real problems, yet somehow I'm what you would call a liberal. I'm highly successful in my career and have actually become a bit more liberal as I've aged. When I was 10 or 11, I was very libertarian and pro-gun, thinking if everyone had a gun, we'd all be independent and society would work well with maximum liberty. Then as I got older, I realized that was stupid, as stupid as communism (sharing is nice, but humans get greedy). There's not been a single successful libertarian country (for longer than a decade or two) in the modern era. Libertarianism depends on personal responsibility, which humans suck at. Look at you, you're too scared to take personal responsibility for what you're saying and hide behind /b's anonymity.

A complex modern society demands a complex array of policies. If you're smart, you use the right tool for the right job. Capitalism is great for things that depend on the free market, but it sucks for other things. I don't want to use mercenaries for my military. If Canada invades, I don't have the time to get 3 bids for national defense. Instead I use our socialist military.

You seem like you've read some books and done some thinking, but it sounds like you've let others guide your thinking. Here's some things for you to ponder. You claim this country was founded on liberty, rights of individuals over groups, etc. Can you explain how the Three Fifths compromise fits into that? If individuals are more important than groups, etc, why did they create an Electoral College? When the states were ratifying the Constitution, why did they focus on limiting the Federal gov, not the state govs?

It's ironic you're going on about how it burns and costs you your dignity to have a state agent tell you what to do because they know what's good for you while you're telling them what they should do because you know better.

Liberals today are bat shit crazy and totally backwards. They shun anyone who doesn't share their group think

I did, you replied to that post.

And it's not relevant. You don't debate the nature of words when discussing a particular text, you discuss the merits of the text. If you don't think a particular natural right should be a natural right, you should say so rather than arguing about how natural rights are abstract concepts that don't exist.

You shouldn't look down on people who can read, if it's a skill you don't possess.

I tend to call them progressives for that very reason. Big government FDR or LBJ-style liberals had betrayed some of their principles, but still tended to believe in things like freedom of speech. The new generation does not.

The only people chanting "Open Borders" are the pundits on Fox. Look up Strawman Argument, it'll help you understand how you've been manipulated.

What kind of damage do you have where you feel the urge to rape every woman you see but only refrain because you had to be taught morality, that raping is bad? You keep going on about how some cultures are "9th century barbarians," are you talking about the US? Look at all the Yea Forums incels who are constantly egging each other on about how much they hate women (while desperate for one to pay attention to them). I love our country, but we've done some very wrong things. We locked up citizens in internment camps, denied them their Constitutional rights because of racist vague fears. We dropped napalm on civilians in Viet Nam. According to FBI stats, one out of every three American woman will be sexually assaulted over the course of her life. That means statistically, between your mom and two grandmothers, one of them likely was assaulted, yet you're too busy fantasizing about how gritty you are and know 'true suffering to do the hard work of actually changing society's attitude about sexual assault, etc. I assume you approve of Trump (talk about a guy born into privilege with no understanding of doing without). I bet you don't give a crap about how he bragged on air with Stern about walking in on teens in his pageants while they were half naked simply because he owned the pageant and no one had the balls to stand up to him.

You claim to be high and mighty, but the way you talk, about the lack of civilization in other cultures and the need for them to endure suffering sounds almost straight out of ISIS's recruiting propaganda.

is it fuck! rather go for a nice midnight stroll in Hong Kong tonight

Different user, but the 3/5th compromise was exactly that: A compromise, between the more liberal types who believed in the Enlightenment principles, and practical realities. Some of which were represented by the Founders, others of which were included simply to get public support for the document.

Voting isn't about individual rights, that was the province of the bill of rights. No, the Founders were quite aware of the tyranny of the masses, and felt the need to protect against them. And the electoral college in specific was partially a way of grouping ballots into convenient batches so they could be easily counted and recounted in a pre-electronic society; and it was partially support for federalism and decentralization of power.

You sound entitled. Go home Kyle.

>Can you explain how the Three Fifths compromise fits into that

Political maneuvering and the original version of of what's being done right now with Mexicans being shoveled in by the left by the bucketload as fast as possible. Parties wanted votes, and the party supporting slavery got a concession of their own in exchange for allowing slaves to be considered citizens for tax and population purposes.

>

Not everything has to fit perfectly for my claim to be true, by the way. I'm also not going to defend libertarianism, ancap/anarchism, or pure unfettered capitalism. I don't claim that our police force would be better left to the whims of McDonalds and its shareholders (although...), I claim that capitalism is the best tool we have by any measure, in nearly every frontier we've reached, and the only people that question that are the ones that quite literally have never experienced life when not under the umbrella of a successful, peaceful, capitalist society.'

>why did they create an Electoral College?

??? You say you've read on these issues, but haven't read apparently the literal essays worth of justification on this topic?

"Madison’s fear was that a faction could grow to encompass more than 50 percent of the population, at which point it could “sacrifice to its ruling passion or interest both the public good and the rights of other citizens.” "

The founders, or at least some, understood that, exactly as is happening right now, a good portion of our country would quite possibly be perfectly willing to give up rights on behalf of their fellow citizens who want nothing of the sort. Right now, NY, TX, and CA would control the whole direction of the country if not for the Electoral college. Why do you think Mexicans are being shoveled into Texas? Free democrat votes.

I'm saying those that wish to control others lives through politics have no right, and are largely ignorant of what they screech in support of.

Because they, much like their conservative counterparts, exist primarily within an echo-chamber of ideas. All of their friends, family, etc. are in agreement with them and they constantly parrot the same narrative to eachother to the point that even hearing an opposing viewpoint causes them psychological discomfort.

That doesn't make any sense. If natural rights dont exist outside of our imaginations and in documents, then how could they be supported by anything? Think harder.

You seem to have problems reading, you should get that checked.

We create things to support abstract principles. We create laws to support abstract principles. Both these apply.

The part about being anti-immigration and how the Democratic party is going to take over the US dummy.

Btw, my main problem here is the word "natural". Natural implies that it exists in nature -- that these rights are God given.

Yes, the law supports rights, but those rights aren't truly inalienable.

SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.
It is a provision for resisting a tyranical government, with whatever means needed.

See: >we create things to support abstract principles. Yes, and those abstract principles are subjective and therefore subject to change -- "natural" implies otherwise.

Natural rights doesn't mean they have a physical existence somewhere, that's an absolutely stupid argument you're making.

The Founders often argued that they're God given, but that's a sop to the prevailing religion and isn't essntial to the concept.

This is why nobody wants to argue with you. You don't address issues, or move the argument forward. You obsess over trivialities and try to revert everything to first principles.

See

>natural rights doesn't mean they have a physical existence somewhere, that's an absolutely stupid argument you're making
Why add the word "natural"? Why not just call them rights? Words matter.

>this is why nobody wants to argue with you
Funny, that's all anyone has been doing for the past few hours. I've had countless replies since we've been bickering and I've chosen not to answer because I've already addressed the arguments and would prefer not to rehash things.

>You don't address issues, or move the argument forward. You obsess over trivialities and try to revert everything to first principles.
You're the one who's been obsessing over the trivial issue. The only reason we're bickering about this right now is because you thought I was moving the goalposts when I addressed your claim about natural rights.

You missed the point. The guy who thinks everything the founders did was based on the right of the individual ignores how some of his idols thought of people forced into slavery didn't have rights as individuals, that they themselves were to be considered private property, and are the epitome of using the power of the government to trample the rights of the individual.

Capitalism IS great, it's a great tool, like a screwdriver is a great tool, but I'm not going to try to fix a car only using a screwdriver. Anyone who uses the boogeyman of "but socialism!!1!1" is either a simplistic thinker or has been suckered in by those who use that cry to distract voters from other issues like the redistribution of wealth from individuals to corporations (like why do we directly give tens of billions a year to oil companies to help them find oil if they're such pinnacles of capitalism and profitability?)

Again, the Electoral College shows that the founders weren't all about the rights of the individual over the government. Because of the Electoral College, a voter in S Dakota counts as more than 4 voters in California (gosh, how democratic!) It also means only 'swing states' really need to be paid attention to, which is why Iowa keeps getting bribed with farm welfare, sorry, "subsidies." You whine about Ca controlling things? You realize over 10 million conservative voters in Ca are denied the chance to influence the Presidential race?

You're also blinded by your racism against people from South America. Since they're typically Catholic and very family oriented, they'd be inclined to be traditional conservative voters. The GOP, still following Nixon's Southern Strategy, however are focused on appealing to racism to distract Conservative voters. Bush II proposed a compromise to fix the immigration system, etc but was stopped by his own party since that would rob them of a boogey man they could rely on to get their voters to go against their own self interest.

>Why add the word "natural"? Why not just call them rights? Words matter.
Because that's the term. They're called natural rights, and have been called natural rights all the way back to Locke and before.

It's the correct usage of the word. If you think it's an inaccurate phrase, then the proper way to handle that is to state that as an aside, and use another term. Instead, you're trying to derail the conversation.

This is why you never have substantive conversations.

>Anyone who uses the boogeyman of "but socialism!!1!1" is either a simplistic thinker or has been suckered in by those who use that cry to distract voters
Not really. Plenty of people use the term to stake out relative positions, i.e. someone prefers more things to be managed by the state while the other prefers more free enterprise, while still being within the normal spectrum in Western democracies. It's the people who claim both terms are always used an absolutist sense, like you, that make it hard to talk.

>Because that's the term. They're called natural rights, and have been called natural rights all the way back to Locke and before
Ok, and I'm pointing out why it's dumb. They're not inalienable, they're not natural, and they're not God given.

>It's the correct usage of the word
It's 2 words. It's a concept. Natural + rights = natural rights = rights that are intrinsic and can't be taken away = WRONG

This needs to be addressed given how many morons itt seem to think "it's unconstitutional" is an airtight argument. I've also addressed why I think it's NOT unconstitutional to ban certain weapon -- and I've addressed why I think it may or may not be wise to do that.

Again, you're just trying to revert everything back to first principles and have very simplistic arguments over established dictionary definitions, and creating strawmen with broad sweeping claims about groups of people nd what they believe, instead of being up anything interesting.

Natural rights are important. They're the most fundamental expression of human dignity, and the Constitution, especially the bill of rights, enshrines some of those principles into law, not the other way around as you keep falsely insisting other people have been claiming.

>instead of bringing up

The various studies will generate different numbers, but here's one from the CDC that puts the percentage at 27.3% cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss6308a1.htm

Just because you don't like information doesn't make that information wrong. Again, based on stats, your mom or one of your grandmothers got assaulted, and rather than doing something about it like a man, you'd rather stick your fingers in your ears and pretend it's not true because doing something is hard.

Before you go on about it's those durned ___ (fill in the ethnicity you hate the most), that second link says that only ~10% of the rapes are 'stranger rapes.'

god still loves you user. he still loves hillary even though she likely had someone killed

I think we can all agree that no matter how hard some people stamp their feet and pout the second amendment isn't going away any time soon

>are largely ignorant of what they screech in support of.

Yes, you are ignorant of what you're screeching in support of as I demonstrated before.

You missed the point. I love capitalism, it's helped me make a decent amount of money while working in a field that doesn't directly pay a lot of money. All of the people in this thread, however, who label anything they don't like as "socialism" and anything that is genuinely socialist as bad while saying "U MUST SUPPORT THE POLICE" (a socialist institution), etc are simplistic thinkers and/or have been suckered in by political marketing

>again, you're just trying to revert everything back to first principles and have very simplistic arguments over established dictionary definitions
I'm not trying to "revert" back to anything. This is the issue we've been discussing for the past hour and a half.

>creating strawmen
You used the terms inalienable and natural, and I expressed my problems with your logic based on the terms that you were using as they relate to laws and rights. There was no strawman.

>Natural rights are important
Rights are important

>enshrines some of those principles into law, not the other way around as you keep falsely insisting other people have been claiming
See, the problem here is that you've been flopping around like a fish out of water for the past hour and a half because you're a pugnacious twat who can't admit when he's wrong. You say I'm the one who's focused on a trivial issue, but you can't simply concede the FACT that my logic has been sound throughout our bickering session.

They had just fought a horrific war against a tyranical government. The 2nd is so we have local militias apart from the government's standing army so that tyranny does not return. If you cant see that, especially given the context of the situation in which it was writen, your either wilfully ignorant or actually brainwashed because no one can be that stupid and have the right number of chromosomes.

God given rights works regardless of what you do/don't believe in.

Yes, and there was the fear that Britain (or any other country) could attack again, and they would be at a disadvantage without a standing army.

Alas, we can only speculate as to what exactly they intended.

Why can't liberals AND cuckservatives see past their own narratives? Both sides are insufferable cunts

>God given rights works regardless of what you do/don't believe in
Oh, they "work"? You really are a moron.

that all you got?

Pandora's box is open. There are more firearms on the planet then people. Laws have yet to stop a determined killer. So knowing that there will always be people willing to take what they want by force. Are you willing to give up your rights and be defenseless to those who won't?

What's the significance of a long tie? Why is that shameful on his part?

>My point is, the amendment doesn't necessarily make it unconstitutional to outlaw certain weapons.
And our point is that it does...

its almost as if growing up in REAL poverty with no access to education, no access to healthcare and about 0 ways out causes people to say fuck it. hm.

You get out what you put in. What do you even mean by that? Do you mean we should BELIEVE that rights are God given? Do you mean that we should act AS IF rights are God given?

Btw, I wanted to review our conversation to make sure I didn't engage in any of the logical fallacies that you accused me of, and I think I identified what the confusion was about.

Early on, I said...
>and I'll say it again: even if it did, that doesn't make it right
I think you may have misread this as "A right". When I said, "that doesn't make it right", I meant, "that doesn't necessarily justify it".

I still would have had a problem with the "natural" part (especially when combined with that stupid comic), but I probably would have just agreed that the constitution makes it A right. I just didn't notice that you misread.

I love it when burgers try to educate the rest of the free world about gun laws and health insurance.

Yeah, it would be like Germany lecturing us on Islamophobia or Sweden lecturing us on the dangers of cuck porn.

Please Americans, keep killing yourselves with guns you won't ban because of a poorly worded document. Its hilarious.

Lol, who ever portrayed Elliot as white? He bitched aboit being Asian so much that I'm pretty sure it would be hard to overlook.

Serious question has anyone noticed how most mass shooters are mixed race?

I like that he has the che shirt.
This is basically anti-left.
