Second Amendment

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.

I want people who read this to ponder this question before reading on, considering this is requiring my mind to deep thought.
Why did the Founding Fathers put freedom of religion and speech FIRST, then the right to bear arms SECOND?  I would think these would be considered of utmost importance in America, right? 

Now, I got to hear a ridiculous argument that the Second Amendment ALONE was dictated for the use only of the time of writing.  Thus, we can only have the right to bear muskets.  Right, citizens will continue to bear muskets but the criminals continue semiautomatic weapons.  Yep, we will scare them away.

When the announcer made claim we should do the same with the first amendment and get rid of the internet, the caller eventually hung up.  People need to understand the thieves will always break the law.  If this wasn't true, would we still have police?  Paraphrasing from Ronald Reagan, why should we punish society for wrongs committed by law breakers?

What does the Bible say on this.  Look no further:

Joel 3:9-10
    Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: [10] Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.


You can't prepare for war if you use peace time items.  I believe in protecting my family, and if guns are banned, the criminals can attack anyone at will without worries or ramifications.  Britain and Australia's crimes have doubled since their "ban."  It only works on law abiding citizens, not criminals.


Fight for your Second Amendment right.  If you don't, you will not have much to protect, let alone a way to protect your family.

Blessings,
Michael

I, as moderator of this blog, hold the right to disregard and remove all comments that are hatred by nature. I uphold the rights of opinion and know there will be disagreements. This does not allow spewing of hate for another view for satisfaction. I am open to debate, but it should be kept civil, tranquil (if possible), and Biblical.
