What these 2nd Amendment gun humpers dismiss --- The 2nd. Amendment is a means to an end.

2nd A. is to support the goals stated in the Preamble to the Constitution.. One of the goals, "Promote the General Welfare," is obstructed in a society where each and every wanker is allowed to walk around armed. In fact, the "General Welfare" is diminished by a practice that results in tens of thousands of citizens to be killed by guns

The we get to the point --- the presence of guns is to increase the bottom line of the owners of the gun manufacturers. The gun manufacturers then use some of their profits to bribe candidates for Congress to continued support of unrestricted sale of guns and ammo.

Sorry Charlie. I will not miss you.

Defamation, inciting to riot, obscenity, and threats are all accepted limitations on free speech.

I don't know if anyone who truly is a free speech "absolutist", even if they call themselves that.

But 2nd amendment absolutists uniquely insist on zero compromise after having twisted it into an individual right.
