Yeah yeah all very well and good parody except that the 2nd amendment contains the word "well-regulated" and the 1st doesn't.
Observe: --begin pasted text-- Amendment I Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. 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. --end pasted text-- While the 2nd does say "well regulated", it should also be pointed out that the 1st does not say "right OF THE PEOPLE", except in the freedom of assembly clause.
(And yes I know I'm asking for a shitstorm of trouble saying that on THIS list of all places).
So why did you? Reeza! If you see a man approaching you with the obvious intention of doing you good, you should run for your life. -stolen from a cypherpunk sig
