Which did not stop you or anyone else from owning a gun. Try again.
"Shall not be infringed" means shall not be infringed. It stopped me from owning the gun I *wanted* and had the *right* to own. Try again.
Shall we treat the "right" to abortion with the same rigor that the left treats the *right* to keep and bear arms?
2. The religious freedom, property, privacy, and very lives of men, women and children in a wacky religious cult outside Waco, Texas.
Oh yes, especially the children who were being held against their will, and married off to men twice their age. Lovely group of people.
No-one said they were a loveable bunch. Being wacky isn't a crime.
But tell me, did killing the children improve their situation from the alleged "being held against their will"? Were the soldiers and ATF agents thinking of the welfare of the children when they fired automatic weapons into a plywood structure known to contain children? Janet Reno gave the order for that.
