ROFL. You posted a Politico magazine with no sources except a few quotes which do absolutely nothing to support your moronic argument.

>On June 8, 1789, James Madison—an ardent Federalist who had won election to Congress only after agreeing to push for changes to the newly ratified Constitution—proposed 17 amendments on topics ranging from the size of congressional districts to legislative pay to the right to religious freedom. One addressed the “well regulated militia” and the right “to keep and bear arms.” We don’t really know what he meant by it.

That's funny. The Oxford Dictionary from that time period defined "well-regulated" as something being in proper working order. And James Madison himself said, "The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed, which Americans possess over the people of every other nation." So we know exactly what “well regulated militia” and the right “to keep and bear arms" meant. I wonder why the author of the article felt the need to lie?

>From 1993 to 1995, Waldman was a special assistant to President Bill Clinton for policy coordination.

Ah, that's why.

Let's see, who will I believe? The Oxford English Dictionary from 1709 to 1894 and the fucking Founding Fathers themselves, or some lawyer who worked for the anti-gun Clinton administration? Hmm tough decision.

Seriously bro, at this point you're embarrassing yourself with the level of ignorance you're displaying. Quit while you're behind.

Read those, and when you finally acquire even a basic grasp of history and vocabulary, hopefully you will be able to produce something that remotely resembles an intelligent response.
