My Reply To "Grind's" Comment Concerning "Guns, Civilization And The Ape In Man"

Grind

Being defenseless isn't the same as being civilized.

My Reply:

Neither I -- nor anyone I know -- advocates "being defenseless." 

"Being defenseless" is your fear, not my political reality.

To use the opening words of The Second Amendment, I do advocate a "well-regulated militia." 

To support a "well-regulated militia" is civilized. 

Alternatively, "more guns, fewer laws" is uncivilized.

Why do you think the words "well regulated" are included in the opening phrase of The Second Amendment? 

In an amendment that contains only 27 words, why are two of those words "well regulated?"

I look forward to your reply.
