The second Amendment is a short one, but it is absolutely essential.
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.
Many legal scholars and politicians disagree, however, I see this paragraph as covering different things. The is the well regulated militia which is necessary to the security of a free state. It also says to me that the right of the people to keep and bear arms will not be infringed.
I divide that for these reasons. If you like history, like I do, and you read a lot about our forefathers and our country, you will realize that what they intended is exactly what they wrote. Back during their time, everyone was armed. They were armed for protection from criminals, and from the English, and for food.
They warn us time and again about the government and the dangers of big government. Their are so many of them saying that government must be controlled. One way, is to insure that the citizens are armed.
Why would they take the guns? The only two groups of people using guns are criminals who do not care about law, and legal citizens. It would solve nothing except leave the criminals with the guns and make the citizen defenselss from the criminals and government.
I am getting older. I am almost 58. I refuse to give up any rights. When I went to war, they told me that it was for freedom and democracy. I will not give up any rights now just because some senile old man named lieberman or that broad collins wants to increase their "control".

Thought Control Bill S.1959
I have been reading about S.1959, popularly known as the thought crime bill, but named by the submitters as the "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007". From what I can see from the bill, I do not like it, nor do I believe it is constitutional. I also believe it is completely unAmerican. Anyone signing this bill or even not apposing it cares nothing about the citizens of the U.S. All you people in the government structure took an oath to defend the Constitution. I fully expect you to do so. Please protect my country. Please do not let the radicalized politicians that just want more power and countrol destroy America. Furthermore, I do not believe that the politically correct way of looking for radical muslims will ever work. No one wants to admit that the philosophy of islam and our way of life is not compatible in any way. There are no moderates.
Why would I throw that in there about muslims? If you look up Sen Joe Lieberman and Sen M. Collins you will see why. This bill was submitted by Collins, then it was sent onto Homeland Security Committee for evaluation. By the way, Lieberman and Collins are the two running the homeland security committee. So obviously, they will amend it to their wants, but they will approve and support it. Muslims come into it because on liebermans' web page he talks about "radicalized muslim terrorists", and how to find and stop them. So by the names they are using, it appears to me that they are using the terrorist problem as an excuse to control American citizens. This is their solution, however, any attack on the Constitution is an attack on all of us. This is definitely an attack on our constitution.
What can we do about this? Not a hell of a lot. I wrote Lieberman and Collins. They probably will not listen, because they know they are right and I am just a citizen. I also wrote my own congressman and senators about this.
If I read the ideas in S.1959 correctly, by emailing these people and telling them I do not approve or like it, then I am obviously a radicalized voter and should be watched. That is what they want. They want the power to watch and stop anyone that disagrees with the government. Hmmmmm, next month the Supreme Court decides whether the 2nd Amendment applies to the normal citizen or not. Here is what I am starting to think. They will decide that the 2nd amendment does not apply. At that point there will be a major push to disarm citizens. If you do not give them up, you go to jail? Possibly. After that, with unarmed citizens, they will be able to do what they want.
Paranoid? Conspiracy? Hey, just because I am paranoid does not mean they are not after me.
HA, HA
You know, our forefathers warned us about this very thing multiple times. But no one wants to believe it could happen.
Disgusting isn't it? They have all the money (trillions of dollars in debt but we still supply their pork), they have free lifetime healthcare for themselves, and now they want more control.
Khruschev many years ago said thet "they would bury us from within". He was wrong in one way. He had nothing to do with it. However, we are being buried from within by our elected party representatives.
