The Second Amendment

The amendment itself contains 27 words: 
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” 
This provision references both the collective right of a militia and an individual right.


As a Vietnam Era Veteran, I defended the US Constitution and the freedoms contained therein...  two of which I am particularly keen about:  The First and Second Amendments indicating our:
  • Freedom of Speech
  • Right to bear arms

While I will never hold another gun in my hand as long as I live, I am NOT OPPOSED to everyone in the United States owning a firearm and going through a weapons safety class followed by firing range practice...  and, if they want to, apply for a carry permit.

Not only should law enforcement and criminals like drug dealers be armed with weapons, so too should our general public be armed with weapons.

Not only should white supremacist groups and black lives matter groups and ANTIFA be armed with weapons, so too should the general public be armed with weapons as well.

As we continue to promote DEFUND THE POLICE movements, we should also promote ARM YOURSELF WITH WEAPONS movements because it is necessary to meet force with an equal (but never greater) than the force being applied against us.

The GREAT CONCEPT about the United States is that we have the First and Second Amendments and as long as we have both those amendments and a willing general public to take advantage of those amendments, we SHALL NEVER BE CONTROLLED by either a foreign or domestic threat.

Weh Yuh Ah Seh

...Back to back, 
belly to belly
I don't give a damn, 
I done dead already
Oh-ho, back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
I hear you talking
Back to back, 
belly to belly
Don't give a damn, done dead already
Oh-ho, back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree...
sung by Harry Belafonte


I think parts of this song lyrics strike a chord with me (no pun intended) and those words be:

I Don't Give A Damn


I don't give a damn about 
  • politicians: Democrats or Republicans
  •  illegal immigrants
  • abortions: late term or otherwise
  • firearms or owning one
  • Global Warming
  • bitcoin or cyber currency
  • any Social Media
  • the mainstream media
  • the national debt increasing
  • if North Korea goes nuclear
  • any Banana Republics
  • Black Rap Music Lyrics
  • if Biden raises my taxes
  • Medicare for All
  • free college educations
  • if China has the biggest military in the world
  • if China has the biggest economy based up PPP GDP
  • reality TV
  • we defund police departments
  • if BLACKS try to rewrite our Constitution or receive reparation
  • if our conservative voices are muted
  • if the USA leads the world in the purchase/consumption of illegal drugs
  • if whites are still being blamed for slavery
  • the wealthy or the poor or even the middle class
  • professional athletes:  basketball, baseball, football, and golf
  • that both my parents have passed away
  • that my sister and brother want little to do with me
  • that my faith keeps getting stronger the older I live
  • if atheists have their heads up their asses
  • if and when cancer takes my life

BUT... what I do care about
 is my 
FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS
