a reply to: GrootAccount to this supreme Court case case for
selective service
The militia clause is what authorizes the federal government to instantiate a draft based on the selective service registration. So I am curious if
this means that every adult male in the us that has registered for the selective service is in turn registered for the " federal militia".
I keep hearing people claim that one must be part of a well regulated militia to be included in the second amendment. While I understand the basics
of a comma and do not want to debate the merits of that argument,. I would like to be able to use this case as a retort.
As far as i can see by researching gun laws according to the 2nd Amendment of the Bill of Rights that is constantly under threat, As long as a person
can be drafted into the military they have the right to bare arms. A militia according to historical facts is owned and governed by a state, however,
definitions change over time, so now as long as you are of age to be in a militia you have the right to carry a firearm to protect your property. No
one else will do it for you, no police will protect your property.
People are owned by the state, pay taxes, birth certificate, social security number (corporate) and at the age of 18 are able to join military by will
or by force, therefore they are a militia of ready citizens already signed up to participate if they are called upon or by voluntary actions.
Separate point...I watched some of the town hall crap on CNN from Florida, and they made the point of making it illegal for anyone under 21 to be able
to buy or carry a fire arm came up multiple times in that discussion...Think about that. There are too many points where I see as wrong to even
discuss.
4th Amendment; "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall
not be violated..." It all adds up to protecting yourself from outsiders that want what you have or to vilify you for some reason. This is violated
every single day on common people, guns are equalizers to protect one self from an over powering force.
Sooner or later it will be illegal to have ad blockers or firewalls on computers, interrupting profit making from the 1%. It's a slippery slope and
people are too damn gullible to be fooled by the man behind the curtain, that magician that proposes fixes to a problem while creating another for
infinity.
Answer to your question, all people over the age of 18 in the US are a militia and have the right to bare arms as of now. As long as you pay taxes
and are apart of the system you are apart of the militia. At least that is how I interpret the law as it has changed over the years and has some
loophole words thrown in there.
Here is a fact you can throw in a gun control persons face as well, the largest school mass killing was by a bomb in 1927 in Michigan, not by a gun.
38 kids, 6 teachers and 58 other people. The killer was 55 and wasn't reelected to the school board so he killed everyone he could. It's called
Mental health. A capitalistic society gives two #s about mental health, that is one of the main problems surrounding killings of innocent people.
