psyjax, that's pretty much what I was taught about it. A lot of people claim that is no longer a valid reason and believe we should lose the right. I am not one of those people.
I also found a good article the other day that broke it down and put it into the context of the times and how it relates today. I should have posted it, can probably find it again. There's a lot of *crap* out there about it, it's really hard to find a *good* article by an educated person on the subject.

I don't care how much the government tries to enforce gun control because the bottom line is, the people who shouldn't have guns(the ones to blame for even having gun control laws) will still have guns(easily accessed through the black market on the streets) and the people who actually uses a gun responsibly are the people who gets hurt by the stupid laws. With that in mind, how is gun control helping the country any? Having gun control actually makes this place more dangerous for good people because the criminals(the guys who will have the illegal guns) will be armed and the good citizens won't be armed(the good citizen won't have any form of protection). The criminals know this and love it. The government can cram thier gun control laws up thier ass for all I care.
I really hate the way that the American government strips more and more rights from us law abiding citizens every day. In my honest opinion, I don't feel that America is a free country anymore. It is turning into a communist country.

I woulden't say communist.
I think it's got a ways to go before it get's TOO unbearable, but I have faith that people aren't blind to the govt. injustices. That's the great thing about the system, if stuff is too fucked up there will usually be a vocal majority (or minority) to point it out.
Now, it's the manufactured concent of corporate oligopolies like M$ and AOL-TimeWarner that we have to worry about. These are the folks that influence our ideas more than anyone.
Scary shit.

Here in Indiana you can get arrested and thrown in jail for throwing a cigarette butt out your car window(it is a class B felony I think, it may be a class C though). A class B felony is up there with involuntary manslaughter...a class B felony for throwing a cigarette butt out the window. How can something like that be treated like a severe crime? Now tell me that this country isn't turning communist. ;P

We need Rush Limbaugh for president and Zombie for vice president. That'll straighten them out!
Seriously, I agree completely with your views on this Zombie.
