Ben Shaprio would spend the night on Twitter crying that they were gonna make him debate something with a higher IQ than a vegetable.

Totally normal.

You are correct - the first part doesn't matter. I interpret contracts for a living. While I'm not claiming to be the world's foremost expert, I'm certainly more qualified than an aggressively stupid Schwann's delivery man.

Also... "well regulated" in 1790s doesn't have the same mearning it has today. Its doesn't mean "subject to oversight" as it may mean in the 2000s.

Yet you also are claiming to be smarter than the guys who... ya know... actually wrote the fucking thing.

But I digress.

You are what's wrong with America.

What kind of asshole takes pride in trying to decipher hidden meanings and find loopholes in contracts?

The world was a better place when we were all just plain-spoken.

Correct. It means well trained or well drilled. It doesn't mean "drunk asshole with the stars and bars flying from the back of his 1993 F150 can have an AK.

Wow. Your vision of more than half of American citizens is incredibly disappointing. Is that what you really think of your countrymen? How can you be this out of touch?
It really mean "functioning" or properly functioning. A watch that kept good time in those days would be referred to as "well regulated".

If you don't like the Constitution, just say so. Don't pretend that the intention of those who wrote it was not clear:

"I ask, sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people, except for a few public officials."- George Mason

"The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed."- Alexander Hamilton

"That the said Constitution shall never be construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms ... "- Samuel Adams

Thomas Jefferson wanted it rewritten every 19 years though so I don't think it's as cut and dry as you think it is in regards to the political leaders of the country.

He didn't foresee how stupid we would become. Could you imagine our currently elected politicians trying to write a Constitution? Holy shitshow...

What JORR is leaving out is that the "whole people except a few public officials" was also our Army. They didn't want a standing army. So if you would like each of us to have an AK, get prepared to become a member of the national guard and for John Taffer to walk into the DoD.

Right. The constitution is 4 pages (something like 17 modern pages). Imagine that... an entire foundation for this whole nation is only 17 pages.
The ACA is something like 20k pages.
What kind of nonsense would a new constitution look like today?

The courts say the Parkland kids’ agenda is largely compatible with the Second Amendment

Obviously the adverb is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline, but at least it's an indication that they're moving in the right direction. Conspicuous by its absence is the part about virtually letting cops sit on therapy sessions in the name of protecting the mentally ill, unless that's tucked away in the registry part, but none of these proposals seem terribly outlandish. One of them is reinstating a ban that already existed and saved lives.

Can we get back to talking about how annoying David Hogg is?

Here he is recently complaining about getting rejected from four California colleges.





Such an entitled little shit stain.



You can add college tuition as another issue he is tackling.



Did he mention he's changing the world?

Imagine being the parent of one of the killed students and watching these kids dive headfirst into their 15 minutes of fame on the blood of your child. I'd have to just avoid all media for months.

Any person who voluntarily tries to go out of state for college when there are in state options available instantly loses the ability to complain about the cost of college and college debt. There are cheaper ways to do it if you are concerned about debt and tuition costs.

It's like people who go to a private liberal arts school to study poetry and then complain they have no income after college to pay off that debt.

Can we talk about how maxing out extracurriculars and holding down a 4+ GPA on the AP track of Florida's New Trier, all while being famous for advocacy, still isn't enough to get into UCLA?

one of the other turd kids accepted that challenge then backed out because kushov or whatever his name is tweeted at another victim something totally non agressive. saying that he can't deal with that type of attitude. The same kid who said that rubio is a murderer.

i don't think it'd go the way you think it would.

I will be sure to swing by Miami next year and tell him I want fries with that.

Yeah, he should be perfectly fine with that. He talked about how there aren't enough minorities in his AP classes in high school, so he should be perfectly fine getting bumped by someone not as white privileged as him.
