Oh loosey come on man. You see what we have over here now. One will get in and IMO it will not matter who but the US will be in trouble. With your election set up there is more than a two party system and smaller groups actually get some representation. With the US it is R's or D's with an occasional so called independent.

The Battle of Athens was an extreme example where a political party takes unlawful control and armed citizens took it back. |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_laws_in_Canada When I lived in Toronto, only a few of my Canadian friends had fire-arms, and they were for hunting. I don't think any of them had handguns, they just don't have that mindset for acquiring an arsenal of weapons.

A rifle, musket or pistol of the kind with which the framers were familiar could fire perhaps one round per minute. Firearms were useful to an individual in hunting, but for military use, only massed fire was of significance. Individual aimed fire was occasionally used by the American revolutionaries, but it was more a nuisance than to military effect. One man with a gun couldn't do much of anything by way of public mayhem in 1792, he could get off perhaps one inaccurate shot at someone nearby before being jumped. There was little possibility of an individual committing a massacre with a firearm. In other changes, we have no need for members of the Militia to store their weapons at home, against the danger of Indian attack, which is what was foreseen in the 2nd Amendment. So quite a lot has changed. The guy with an AR-15 at home neither serves the Militia function contemplated by the 2nd Amendment, nor would its firepower be familiar to the Founders as a personal weapon.

Change in order to better suit the nations needs, are needed if this nation has any common sense left in its bones.Sticking our heads in the sand & accepting the status quo because the stupid phrases like "That's what we do, we always bring in a lot of immigrants here," show how out of touch our leaders are with this nations tax paying public.Only a fool, or one who wants willingly to be destructive to this nations back bone, its middle class of tax payers, who are shrinking in numbers as we write here, would interpret a business as usual attitude to everything an archaic piece of legislature stated , 200+ years ago.If we will remain a sovereign nation , its evident changes of legislature, of law & electing leaders, who are not selling us out to the NWO , that wants to erase all borders ,is needed! Desperately! |

I would prefer that we revise the Constitution by Amendment, as provided for in the document itself; but the politics of this are, and have been for some time, impossible. So we revise it by litigation. |

We need not only amendments, but tweeking ,not a re-wright, but very serous revisions, in areas where the FFs back then couldn't even dream , in their absolute "wildest sleepy time visions" of what the world would be like 200+ years from their time.They'd certainly be shocked if they knew what was going on in the US today.You can look it up, but its a fact that Jefferson stated it would take at least 40 generations to adequately populate this nation, in a vision back then, of it spanning from Atlantic to Pacific, probably not even taking into account of territories acquired by this nation , not inclusive in the Louisiana Purchase.Wow was that off the mark, for reasons that old "TJ" couldn't even dream of! Why have a document so vague that it is constantly subject to interpretations by at one time, a conservative controlled USSC & other times a super liberal USSC?Like a prime example ,the 14th. amendment. Lets spell the GD thing out to clarify it , & modernize it to this day & age?IMHO I lean very much toward those who believe that if one gives birth in this nation & is NOT a citizen of it, their born here , are not citizens by the reason of "jus soli".It is invalid & not a right of citizenship & is unlawful, in that example. This is a practice that is not valid without restrictions in most nations WW (only 16% have virtually unrestricted jus soli WW),in most nations its not valid when illegal citizens are the parents of the "born" in the said nation. Bar this goofy one. & a few others.We can go on to further define birth rite citizenship, that is very vague now. Times have also changed since the 2nd was passed, we can spell that one out too.& so many more, & be clear & not leave it up to regimes in charge here , at the whim of men who are biased, & probably bought & paid for, in many instances. |
