Re: CHARLTON HESTON IS DEAD

actually, any references to "the people" in the constitution refer to land-owning white men.

the second amendment exists in the form of the states' national guards, so there is no reason for civilians to have firearms of any sort.

Second amendment, shmecond amendment. In the end, we're all soylent green.

I'm actually one of "those" people who doesn't cling to a false sense of patriotism like it has absolutely ANY bearing on yours or my day to day life. The second amendment has little to no bearing on the lives of well adjusted people who contribute to society in any meaningful way. It caters to people who feel the need to cut the sleeves off their flannel shirts and chew on pieces of straw while shooting their guns in the air while standing in the back of their pickup trucks and waving an american flag they had no part in creating or defending.

Bow & Arrow, that's what Ted Nugent does!

Well, if you light the tip of your arrow on fire, then it becomes a "firearm".

Guns don't kill people . . . people kill people.

I don't appreciate any argument here, I know what was written, I understand what was written and ratified, and no one person can change that...

I don't wish to argue this any further if that is your objective.

Lets get back to DVDTOWN.COM, and a discussion of Movies.

Thank You.

VideoCipher, I know I'm going to take heat for this, but the one who turned this into a debate on guns was you. The main discussion was his acting career not the US constitution.
