Fuck, I want a javelin...WestlinnDuck said:This in in the thread. Could never happen. The aid to Ukraine is closely monitored with clear segregation of duties to insure security, just like our blue city election processes. I mean who would leave $80 billion worth of US arms lying around in Afghanistan, who would provide billions in US arms to Libyan democratic freedom fighters that ended up with ISIS in Syria. Certainly not US democrats.

Federalist 46 makes it absolutely clear you are wrong, as per usual. You should know something before you open your mouth Adolph. Ignorant sluts like you who spew mistruths as facts are why we have so many dumb lemmings in this country who bought the Covid myth.HHusky said:

Scalia treated "well-regulated militia" as having no effect whatsoever.
That's not proper interpretation of any written document.
Use your own words, Betty
Scalia was a selective “originalist”.
From Madison, you know, the guy who chiefly wrote the BOR:
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. And it is not certain, that with this aid alone they would not be able to shake off their yokes. But were the people to possess the additional advantages of local governments chosen by themselves, who could collect the national will and direct the national force, and of officers appointed out of the militia, by these governments, and attached both to them and to the militia, it may be affirmed with the greatest assurance, that the throne of every tyranny in Europe would be speedily overturned in spite of the legions which surround it.
You will of course try to make some tortured argument that yes, even though Madison is clearly arguing that a well armed citizenry can form a militia to defend itself against a larger centralized government, it somehow doesn't mean what the words clearly say it means because reasons. Then you will end it with Bertie or Sally or some other rapier wit quip. You are a simpleton. -

From Madison, you know, the guy who chiefly wrote the BOR:
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. And it is not certain, that with this aid alone they would not be able to shake off their yokes. But were the people to possess the additional advantages of local governments chosen by themselves, who could collect the national will and direct the national force, and of officers appointed out of the militia, by these governments, and attached both to them and to the militia, it may be affirmed with the greatest assurance, that the throne of every tyranny in Europe would be speedily overturned in spite of the legions which surround it.
You will of course try to make some tortured argument that yes, even though Madison is clearly arguing that a well armed citizenry can form a militia to defend itself against a larger centralized government, it somehow doesn't mean what the words clearly say it means because reasons. Then you will end it with Bertie or Sally or some other rapier wit quip. You are a simpleton.

"If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, and which against the usurpations of the national rulers, may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success than against those of the rulers of an individual state. In a single state, if the persons intrusted with supreme power become usurpers, the different parcels, subdivisions, or districts of which it consists, having no distinct government in each, can take no regular measures for defense. The citizens must rush tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system, without resource; except in their courage and despair."
