Dear Ex-CT
I am neither a good Democrat nor a good Republican. I am a private citizen who has chosen to go armed for over forty years and who currently holds concealed carry permits in New York, Florida and (wait for it) Connecticut. In all that time, I have fortunately never had to shoot anyone. I say fortunately because, though I would not hesitate to shoot if required, I have avoided the hassle and possible legal repercussions that would inevitably follow such an action. Regarding your conflation of the National Guard with the Militia mentioned in the 2nd Amendment, I’m sure that you are aware that the opposing view is that the Militia mentioned in the Amendment and described in the Federalist refers to the entire population of men over the age of 18 available for military service and that the Amendment also mentions that bearing arms is a right of the People. The latter position seems to be the prevailing one in most jurisdictions including SCOTUS.
P.S. What’s an evil diet? You mean junk food?
