This is one of my ongoing pet peeves so I am making it my cause of the day.



The public's common misunderstanding of the Second Amendment has been engendered, in large part, by a campaign of misinformation supported by those opposed to common sense gun laws. As former Chief Justice Warren Burger said, "[The Second Amendment] has been the subject of one of the greatest pieces of fraud, repeat the word 'fraud,' on the American public by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime."

The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution
"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."

Contrary to the gun lobby's propaganda, the Second Amendment guarantees the people the right to be armed only in connection with service in a "well regulated Militia." Courts consistently have ruled that there is no constitutional right to own a gun for private purposes unrelated to the organized state militia.

Anyone interested in finding out the truth go here.
