  • "Founding fathers intended Second Amendment to be a line of defense against a tyrannical government — Federalist Paper #46. Scalia in US v Heller cited US v Miller – "weapons protected by Second Amendment were those in common use at the time. NRA estimates that up to 15 million assault rifles are in circulation. If Second Amendment exists to protect against a tyrannical government, the public should have the same weapons used by military. The term assault weapon is a scare tactic. The AR 15 is a semi-automatic rifle — not a machine gun. 90% of all guns in the US are semi-automatic as opposed to revolvers or bolt action rifles. Scalia stated, "It may be objected that if weapons that are most useful in the military—M16 rifles and the like—may be banned then the Second Amendment right is completely detached from the prefatory clause. The conception of the militia at the time of the Second Amendment’s ratification was the body of all citizens capable of military service, who would bring the sorts of lawful weapons that they possessed at home. Therefore, the Second Amendment applies to private citizens — not just the militia." (votemarkfreeman.com)
