Anti liberty people have spent MILLIONS new constitutions. My post was to draw attention to the issue. I thought folks here would be interested. People who has spent that kind of time and money are going to be involved every step of the way should the neocon COS'ers get it to fruition. Saying 'they can't take away our 2A rights because the constitution doesn't grant us anything' is great to know others understand but it's not going to change the powers that be from coming to take the guns. If this means I am going to be bounced from this group, whatever.

Thank you for that reply.
That reply does NOT really address the issues I placed before you.
Also: Unless you tag me, I get no notification that you replied. The only reason I know you replied is because I checked.

I withdraw my bounce comment. IMO, you've removed most of the tinge of statism I saw in your words. You put on the table, a point that requires scrutiny. Right after you answer the questions I asked you.
You wrote:
➽ You were born into a society that accepts that you are to live in the Rule of Law.
I asked:
What, specifically, did you mean when you used the word "society"?
What, specifically, did you mean when you used the word "law"?
When you use the word "accepts" did you mean like a slave accepts being born into slavery?
You wrote:
➽ Now, if you care to challenge your being bound to your State's laws, go for it.
I asked:
What, specifically, do you mean by "law"?
I also requested:
Please answer my questions so that you and I may have a discussion about what liberty actually is.
What you have put on the table for examination is the opposite of liberty.
I am really intrigued by what you wrote. We can not yet discuss it because if we are using the same words to convey different concepts, we have an error of ambiguity. Communication then fails.
Since the topic is "a" constitution, and its second amendment, we need to come to agreement as to what, specifically, we are discussing.
Have you read Lysander Spooner's NO TREASON - the constitution of no authority?
