“does not…completely prohibit the bearing of firearms”

COMPLETELY? versus “shall not be infringed”

Federal law overrides state law.
Partially is a form of infringement.
Infringement is verboten.

AND
“If you think you need to carry a gun in a holster openly, then you got a mental problem”

It really isn’t a matter of NEED but of a Constitutional right. Sure, lots of them are nuts, just as many voters are nuts but they have a Constitutional right to vote, to speak, to cary arms. The Second Amendment is especially interesting in that it did not limit itself to what “Congress shal not” but rather a total prohibition on infringement, that would include state, city, county ordinances.

Further, even if it hadn’t, the Fourteenth Amendment extended all the rights under the Constitution down to the lower forms of government as well.

It is strange to think there are people who believe people should be allowed to secretly carry around the means of killing others but not openly. Wouldn’t people be safer if they realized the crazy person in front of them was armed? Personally, I assume everybody is armed.

The real mental problem lies with those who think Constitutional rights which they disfavor are optional.

David for respecting the Constitution or amending it
