    Well, the frogeaters may have their problems, but why should you continue acting stupid ?
    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

          WTF, AAHZ?
          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

              Maybe he's one of those Yanks who oppose being refered to as a Yank?

              I hear there are many who insist of being called "Dixie" or something, without understanding that this kind of provincial distinction is fully irrelevant to foreigners.

                  Hadn't heard of the South referred to as the "dirty dirty" before. Learn something new every day.

                        Being drunk is an adorable state, so no dispute about that.

                        Worse, noone really cares if you are north or south - you are from yankystan no matter what.

                              I agree with you that its a reference to a more or less universal militia. Not to something like our modern National Guard, which is more selective. But it does say WELL REGULATED MILITIA. Thats not consitent with a purely individual right either. And those 18th c militias, IIUC didnt take everyone. Criminals, and the mentally ill, for example, were excluded. They were well regulated.

                              So its a reference to an 18th century institution which no longer exists. That doesnt make it an individual right, and it doesnt make the DC gun law unconstitutional.
                              Once again, the first clause just provides a possible justification, it doesn't limit or prescribe anything regarding the iron-clad individual right that is spelled out in the second clause.

                              But addressing your point, I don't think anyone, including the NRA has any problem with excluding criminals and the mentally ill from gun ownership. (whether it is possible or not, even with gun control is another question).
