              If you are USA citizen, you have the right to bear arms in case goverment turns evil
While yiur giv turned incompeten/insensitive instead, it also soldd itself out to corporations.
Thus, corporations = gov
Thus, you have right to bear arms in case corporations turn evil

The intent of the 2nd amendment was for states to maintain a military force that could be easily called on. George Washington used the national guard to put down rebellion of American citizens. It was never about government oversight.

Yeah, and the Supreme Court was never intended to solve Constitutional conflicts, either. The purpose of things changes over time, and I'm pretty sure the hero who brought this CEO to justice didn't ask whether doing so was really what the founding fathers meant when they said 'a right to bear arms'.

I didn't say it, man, you did. Just letting you know that's misinformation.

I did not say that at all, so I don't know why you're claiming I did while talking about misinformation.
