A well regulated militia means just that. It doesn't mean every chemically compromised burger that wants to can buy guns from a wallmart. No wonder your murder rate is African tier.

Well regulated meant something else in funky 18th century talk and they actually do mean that every mouth breather has a right to death machines.

well-regulated just meant it was in working order. The amendment is saying that there needs to be a right to bear arms if you don't want a lovely rear end militia that has to beat down red-coats and indians with cudgels.

there is free speech too but still libel laws that infringe on radical interpretations of that. or copyright laws that prevent you from stealing other people's speech. those are large areas of law, no small exception. can guns have the same amount of regulation and still be constitutional? of course, but it depends on the culture at the time it gets to the Supreme Court. and also whether you want to have about 100 more Waco type stand offs with militias and retaliatory McVeigh type terrorist attacks. frequent mass shootings are probably collectively less deadly than disarming US militants would be.

It's almost sixty times more likely that an American will use his or her weapon to defend against a home invasion or robbery than it is to be used in a murder.

I unironically think the US governments relation with far militia groups is similar to the relationship between the ISI and the Taliban, except that former would utilize these far right groups to suppress any potential leftist challenge to the status quo, whilst the other is concerned with a possible war with India.

Having guns to even the field against the government hasn't mattered since the advent of armor. Have fun shooting your AR15 at an Abrams. You have more power in your social media now.

I don't know about six times but according to a CDC study “almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year.” http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/cdc-study-use-firearms-self-defense-important-crime-deterrent Only a fraction of criminal offensive uses would be actual murder so I can believe it.

You have more power in your social media now. The founding fathers could never have imagined that such mass communication was possible in their day and age where broadsheets and loud-talking were the most effective means of communicating an idea. Obviously, the first amendment was never meant to allow for such "social media" as this. Also, cellphones kill more people and are used in conjunction with more crimes than firearms, so you should have to apply with the sheriff's department for permission to have one, imo.
