Never met the man. I an simply saying that the Second Amendment does not allow people to have any kind of weapon they desire.

I absolutely agree. BUT the problem we have is powers are no longer delegated to the Federal Government. The U.S. Constitution was designed to establish a federal government and to preserve the rights of its citizens. For the most part these rights are given to the jurisdiction of the individual states.

What we have today is powers granted to States (if not on paper, in practice). States can govern themselves only insofar as the Federal government will allow it. Have a State determine for itself what constitutes a marriage and see what happens. Not only that, but States have sold their souls to the Federal government as they have become dependent on funding.

My belief is that individuals should not be taxed by the federal government. States should be taxed by the federal government and individuals by the state. And federal taxes should only be for legitimate federal interests.

But what do we have? The federal government taxes the citizens of a State. That State then has representatives who work to get funding for needs of that State and a portion of that money may be returned. The Federal government has already nullified the U.S. Constitution when it comes to the freedom of the State and the State has gone alone. It is too late to allow Arms to ensure a free State.

Are you saying the Federal Govt. doesn't abide by the Constitution?

When was Article 10 done away with in the Bill of Rights?

I am saying the Federal government has more power than was intended when the Constitution was written.

But the 10th Amendment is still in place.

If the Federal Govt. doesn't want to abide by the Constitution, then they have no right to accuse anyone, or any state for crimes against the constitution. They have already annulled it.

Every state has the right to secede. They came into this union freely. And freely they can leave.

No, that is not true.
