Murdering a handcuffed man is very different than shooting a terrorist that is participating in an attack on the government.
Matter of viewpoint.
Are you posting this so that President Biden will read it?
No. I was speaking in generalities: when I said "I" (i.e., me) it meant the American People. When I said "You" (i.e. Biden), it meant the junta currently in charge of the Federal government.
I doubt he is going to read your comment.
I doubt that he is, too. He couldn't care less what I have to say, unless I happen to be the Chinese premier.
"
The 2nd Amendment was placed in the Constitution so that people like me are able to keep people like you in your place" is a direct threat to the President.
No, it is not. See above. If I said, "People like Joe Smith will teach people like Harry Jones a lesson someday," is that a direct threat by Joe to Harry? No, because I said
"people LIKE", not me personally and anybody else personally.
No. Stop trying to turn me into a rabble-rouser that is inciting violence. I'm not Maxine Waters.
The Second Amendment says nothing about threatening the President.
I am well aware of that.
Saying "You [President Biden] , with your comments about "no amendment is absolute", are precisely the reason the 2nd Amendment was placed in the Constitution to begin with" is total nonsense.
Matter of viewpoint.
The Constitution is a "living document"
Odd that the Left says that, except when it comes to firearms, isn't it? "Oh, the 2nd Amendment only applies to flintlock rifles that were current when it was written! It doesn't apply to AR-15s!" "Oh, the militia is only in there because the country had no standing army at the time! It doesn't apply any more!" Balderdash.
with provisions for it to be amended/altered as the people see fit. The Second Amendment can be altered or removed according to the will of the people, just like every other amendment.
Yes, as the
*PEOPLE* see fit, not the sitting president, not the Congress, not gun-grabbing government alphabet agencies. The Constitution can be altered, very true; but the Founders made it extraordinarily difficult to do---you have to have a
¾ majority in both houses of Congress and then a ratification by
¾ of the State governments in order to get it enacted. That's difficult enough to do in
normal times, let alone in the polarized atmosphere we have right now, when I suspect it would be nearly impossible. Joe, Nancy, & Crew know this just as well as anybody else; that's why they keep trying to sidestep the correct procedure, which they know has no chance of passing, and trying to force it through illegally by "executive action". The courts won't uphold it. The People won't vote for it. The States are rejecting it:
