My generation of kids from that war and the baby boomers who followed us into the 1960s and the Vietnam War era were the last to be drafted and therefore the last actually required to perform our Second Amendment right to bear arms. We didn’t think using a gun was something sacred, just something we had to do — temporarily. (We didn’t call a rifle a gun, of course, and some still remember the vulgar doggerel we had to recite for the platoon sergeant if we did.) |

The N. R. A. "discovered" the second amendment a bit after you idiot libtards discovered gun control. THEY were late to the game.
Don'tcha just love libtard whiners? I wonder what cheese they like with their whine? |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
