    The COTUS intended us to be able to buy those items. Civilians owned Canons in the Era of the founders. Civilians owned the equivalent of battle ships.

    People who have never served, trained for battle, or daughter in any type of conflict will always disagree but then they never took any oath to the citizens of the USA either.

    What can you really say to a people who insist it's a positive for society to be disarmed by their government?

    How is the defense of one’s home, farm, industry & family considered ungodly?!? Remember, the British royal family at the time were all Hanoverian Germans and their tactics among the Highland Scots was to bayonet and or shoot every last one of them… they also shot families who disagreed with their Anglican religion (evidence the Presbyterian Covenanters and Irish RC’s). After observing that and being taxed via the whims of English parliament W/o any representation, I would claim that the colonists had every right to rebel against an authoritarian government… thus the militias were employed as the means of defense & liberty. There may come a time when we must again exercise our rights (Constitutional) once again to eradicate tyrannical government. I pray that that never happens but am a big believer in being prepared for any situation should it arise.

    As relates to Scotland there, I think it should be noted the carnage was carried out because the crown had made it illegal to possess weapons.

    Every government on earth is more highly armed than their subjects.

    Good point! Now why did they shoot the Presbyterian Covenanters? We’re they a military threat?

    Liberal-Think. Makes zero sense, always.

    The Revolution wasn't ungodly.

    The crown and church of England in that time were.

    God's providence was invested in the American Revolution.

    "When the government violates the people's rights, insurrection is, for the people and for each portion of the people, the most sacred of the rights and the most indispensible of duties."
    Marquis De Lafayette

    Even an atheist knew Revolution was necessary to insure our freedoms.

    "Without his brilliant negotiation of the Louisiana treaty, there would be no United States of America. Without Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, there would have been no Virginia Statute on Religious Freedom, and no basis for the most precious clause of our most prized element of our imperishable Bill of Rights - the First Amendment to the United States Constitution."
    Christopher Hitchens (God have mercy, RIP)


    "They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power."
    Patrick Henry

    Paul and Silas worshipped in prison after being beaten. The result... the jailer and his household were saved. Would you shoot the jailer and claim it was in obedience to God? I honestly cannot see any evidence of your attitude ever being seen in the New Testament church. Not even once.

    Nero was more ungodly. Not once did the Apostles call for revolution because of a godless government. We cannot close our eyes to the scripture just because we don't like the government that rules us.

    Let's test your statement.

    Is God in the New Testament the God of Israel?

    Is he the same God yesterday,in the Old Testament, today, and forever?

    This was and is no surprise. As an obvious antithesis to him, Biden promised to undo all Trump did and head America in the opposite direction. Promises made--promises kept.

    I remember when Biden was running for office. He said President Trump's signing of Executive orders, (EO's) was representative of a dictator.

    When Joe later occupied our White House he signed on his first day more EO's than Trump or BHO in the entire span of their respective terms.

    Joe, does that D word still apply?

    Build back better…. The biggest joke I ever heard. It should be ‘Marxism is our objective!’
