[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 2877005, member: 6592"] I've answered one of the comments thus: [INDENT] [I]Dianna Smith said: And yet, NO WHERE in the Constitution or Bill of Rights does it say there shall not be any common sense regulation on firearms. Surely we can all agree that an innocent citizen has the right to Life and that goes AHEAD of any minor inconvenience that someone who wants a gun, but does not have any training, may have. Especially given that if there IS no training, the innocent civilian may well LOSE their Right To Life, when a so-called "do gooder with a gun" tries to shoot a suspect and ends up killing the innocent shooter!![/I][/INDENT] [I] [/I] [INDENT][I]I replied: I'm sorry, Dianna, but you are wrong. It's right there in the Second Amendment. It clearly states, "shall not be infringed." Let me break that down for you. "Shall": 2.b. —used in laws, regulations, or directives to express what is mandatory (meriam-webster.com/dictionary) "Not": 1.—used as a function word to make negative a group of words or a word (meriam-webster.com/dictionary) "Be": 2.d.—to take place (meriam-webster.com/dictionary) "Infringed" 1.—to encroach upon in a way that violates law or the rights of another ("the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed" — U.S. Constitution amend. II) I don't know about you but it's clear as mud to me.[/I][/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
