Amendment II
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.
Probably one of the most controversial Amendments in the Constitution yet one of the most important one to ever reach any document for an entire country to live by. This is what determines our Freedom here in the United States of America.
I know I have talked to many people from all over this wonderful Country, some with very good arguments on why we should not bear arms. Others that love this Right. I want to take a little time here to try to explain this a little more in depth so that some might understand why this is so important.
I understand the reason why so many are scared of guns but we also need to understand it's not the guns that kill its the people behind them. As we go throughout history which is very important to look back to for this very simple reason. A population without weapons to protect themselves, even entire Nations can and will be destroyed and conquered if the people have no way of defending themselves. Going back to several cases. Throughout all of History, there are higher Governments and rulers that love nothing but power, control, to be Rich and to get the people poor.
One example of this is when Spain invaded what we know of today as Mexico, The Aztecs and the Incas. Both very wealthy and Peaceful Empire with enough people to defend it on there own. Up until the Spanish came to their shores with guns and horses that is. See the Aztecs never saw these kinds of weapons, Chest plates of Iron, Loud canons, rifles along with fast moving animals they had never seen. All these people lived in peace. The only thing they could fight back with was spears, rocks and arrows. Though they had over powered the Spanish in numbers they were no match for the few behind the guns. Leaving them to not only loose their land and Empire but they all became slaves to the Spanish and up until they died working in the fields from over exhaustion and lack of food. They no longer had homes let alone families or a way of life. All because the ones invading had guns and they didn't. This is just one example.
This has happened world wide for thousands of years. One has better weapons and conquers the other. Our forefathers who wrote the Constitution knew this. Remember, They actually lived under Governments like this dominating anyone and everyone the possible could. Just to be the Higher Power.
This is why ALL of our ancestors left, any way they could to come to the land of the free, America the home of the Brave, The land of opportunity, and the Right to be able to protect their families and to be able to Worship God Freely, Anywhere without being persecuted for it. Those who wrote the Constitution knew History, they also knew that in order for We The People to keep such a great Country of freedom, that there would be times when Governments and other Countries may take advantage of the people and to try to come and conquer over them by any means just to have complete and total control over those who live here.
I here this same saying over and over. Why can't we all just get along? Or this one. God says thou shalt not kill. Hmmmm? See I personally have many problems with these sayings. For one, We can't get a long because most of these other countries still have the same exact rules and regulations and are out to conquer the world. A New World Government. With the whole idea that full control of the people on planet Earth will be the ultimate victory. Make the people poor. Spread the wealth so to speak take from those who have something and make them the same as the Starving African or the bum laying in the streets. Think this is impossible? Check out the News today. Let alone study up just a little bit on History. You just might be surprised on how easy this can and will be accomplished if the people have now way to protect themselves.
Thou shalt not Kill, If anyone actually reads the Bible and study the words it is actually Thou shall not Murder. The Right to bare Arms does not mean to just go around murdering people. It gives us the right to protect ourselves and our families lives. Even God throughout the entire Bible tells of stories upon stories of people having to protect themselves from evil doers throughout all of History. Why? cause Satan hates us all and wants us all dead. Believe it or not that is his plan. I will talk more on this subject later. I can just hope and pray the Church will wake up to this fact. Again The Right to Bear Arms does not mean to go out murdering people.
With Governments power, money and eagerness for more control. To become the best in the World, Also if not kept in line from the people, can turn out to be very disastrous not just for one nation but the entire world. We all saw what Hitler did. This is also a result of gun being taken from the public. This is why we went to War to help stop them. Is war good? No, not by any means. But, just as the Bible says, there is a time for peace, and there is a time for war. God gave us a great Nation to live in. Free, and full of life to worship him freely, unlike most countries on the planet. Murdered just because the love Jesus Christ. Imagine this in the land of the Free? It's just a few more laws away my friends.
I don't think most realize that we would by no means have or live in this great country if is wasn't for those who fought and died for us as all. This includes Jesus Christ. All those soldiers who had went out to war and fought so hard to keep the Freedom we have here at home. This should mean something for every American who lives and works and enjoys the lifestyles we all share here on this soil. Our freedom in America is what so many other Countries look up to. If it wasn't for our service in the Military and all those Men and Women who risk their lives everyday for not only us but, for the freedom of others in distant lands, we would by no means have our lifestyles here in America today. Yes we would all be slaves to the Governments who work so hard to take this great land from us. I try my best to go out an shake every officer in the Military's hands and tell them thank you. Christian or not. They put their lives on the line for me and you. We should all take the time to respect that. No matter what.
I can only hope that people might understand my point. May even make a few mad. But, know this. Take away the Right to Bear Arms? Get ready to become a slave with no rights at all. Many have fought and died for this Right and our freedom to live in such a great and awesome Country. I have a hard time believing that so many will just lay down ready to lose this wonderful and strong Nation under God.
I just want to add a couple more the amendments here to help get a better Understanding for the reasoning of the 2nd Amendment.
