That's why me and pops got us some .22 ARs

Hey Joe, about the only gun that I know of that has never been used as a weapon of war is a derringer. You saying that should be the only gun us Americans are allowed to own?

They understood, and worried, that a standing army could be used by the central government to suppress the people.
All circles back to the surging Marxist wing disguising itself as the DNC. Communism is nothing more than failed Socialism forced upon the people at the end of a gun barrel. When starving citizens revolt against a socialist dictatorship, it'd sure be alot better if those citizens had inferior, or no weapons at all

Heck, look at US v. Miller - they ruled that sawed-off shotguns could be banned because they DON'T have a military application.
Miller was a very poorly argued and decided case too. The decision hinged on the opinion that short-barreled shotguns do not serve a useful purpose as ordinary military equipment but such shotguns found widespread use in WW1 and would see use in every US-participated conflict since.

Because muskets were all they knew. There was no need for them to specify.
They had no knowledge of what was to come.

Ehhhh, they may have been widely issued, but didn't see much trigger time at all

Are you trying to be obtuse or is that just a result of your health problems?

It certainly didn't protect "Weapons of Whore" with him.
Posted on 3/18/19 at 12:25 pm to Wtodd
Uh, Joe- it's called "inalienable", you stooge.
The left really is a psychotic bunch. They try to tell us Trump is Hitler and we don't need guns for protection from tyranny- at the same time. Wrong on both counts.

Yep it starts with I own guns and I am a hunter but.......

What’s ironic is that the US military currently uses pump shotguns, semi-auto shotguns, semi-auto handguns, and bolt-action rifles. Those are all literally current “weapons of war”. Yet leftists only want to ban semi-automatic rifles, which have not been standard issue for over half a century.

...you can't hunt a deer with an AR-15. There won't be anything left of it after you shoot it!

This is a lie, you maybe grievously ignorant of the state of small arms technology of that time but the Founders certainly were not.

They knew that arms could mean a variety of personally owned weapons. Muskets, pistols, knives, swords, daggers, etc. Hence the non-non-specific term "arms".

And usually includes some mention of clips.

They would have welcomed the effectiveness of modern firearms. Because it reduces the advantage a regular force has over the average citizen.
