FOX-2nd Amend Not Written To Protect Right To Shoot Deer-Written To Protect Right To Shoot TYRANTs

[kpete]

In a video published Thursday on the Gretawire blog, Andrew Napolitano, the senior judicial analyst for Fox News, said the Second Amendment allowed Americans to kill “tyrants.”

“You know with all the debate about guns, I’ve been doing some writing and doing a lot of thinking, and Greta and the rest of us at Fox want to know what you think about it,” the former New Jersey Superior Court Judge said. “The Constitution specifically and directly insulates the right to keep and bear arms from interference from the government. It could not be more clear: ‘…the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.’”

“So since the Congress can’t change the Constitution, how could they possibly take away your right to keep and bear arms?” Napolitano continued. “Here’s the dirty little secret about the Second Amendment, the Second Amendment was not written in order to protect your right to shoot deer, it was written to protect your right to shoot tyrants if they take over the government. How about chewing on that one.”

1. How can the gun nuts get it so wrong

the 2nd Amend was written to provide for well regulated militia to PROTECT THE GOVERNMENT AND OUR COUNTRY from threats foreign and domestic. This was in place of a standing army. The founding fathers vehemently opposed the idea of a standing army.

morons.....

3. Exactly, and the part about "it shall not be infringed" was talking about other State's not adhering

to the Bill of Rights.

7. Somehow the right wingers always manage to overlook the 'well-regulated militia' part.

2. Gee, I wonder who the tyrants taking over the Govt are, the ones that want to help our citizens, or

the ones who say "Govt is evil" & tyrannically oppress our citizens while obstructing hurricane relief?

4. So tired of this.

(Speaking to the "patriots&quot You guys aren't going to do a thing. Keep on whining about "tyranny" - you don't know a thing about it. If you did, you would recognize the obvious Neo-Nazi influences, or even outright support/membership within your ranks.

Your mouthpiece, Faux News, is universally laughed at now. Nobody takes you seriously anymore. Time to just fade away and be forgotten.

6. And these goons have declared Obama and most Democrats "tyrants". That's a dog whistle and code

for "time to rustle up a lynching or shooting party to assassinate elected officials, boys".
