“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
This is the goal of the makers, all else is secondary.
“insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare
Now let’s look at the second amendment
The U.S. Bill of Rights
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.“
Can anyone explain how a suicidal 18 year old with no firearms training, walking through an elementary school holding a loaded AR-15 meets the definition of a well regulated militia? My English must not be so good.
How do 16 million AR-15s in the hands of untrained, unvetted and unknown people help
“insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare?”
“Gun deaths among American children rose 50% between 2019 and 2021, from 1,732 to 2,590 according to a report by the Pew Research Center. Gun deaths among all Americans rose 23% during that period reaching 48,830 by far the highest number on record.” Axios.com
Life expectancy for white Americans (76.4 years) is longer than that of Black Americans (70.8 years.
This can be explained by differences in health care and the presence of lead in young black bodies.
Look back over recent years and review posts on Trump here.
Trumplicans have no interest in solving problems, just creating them:
#1 Trumplican politicians makes AR-15s more available claiming this will make us safer, but gun deaths keep increasing especially among children in Uvalde Texas. Maybe this week it’s in Nashville or a sweet sixteen party in Alabama. Check mass shooting archive below for the latest.
#2 Oppose efforts to control Covid by vaccines, masks or health policies thus causing deaths and strains on our health system.
#3 Attack American institutions like the free press, FBI and Justice Department. These make us a nations of laws not personality.
#4 Pass laws preventing all abortions, knowing that the vast majority want control over their own bodies, how selfish. This creates chaos where Trumplicans have more expertise.
Seems like many Trumplicans are agents of an enemy country.
Ricochet is a Public Broadcasting System documentary showing the cost of gun violence is not just bodies, but our society and a peaceful way of life.
A mass shooting is defined as 4 or more people killed or wounded at a single event.
