And clearly his home armoury is a challenge to the ability of the US Army to oppress him
A bunch of cave dwellers in Afghanistan have successfully resisted/repelled both Russia and the US. Tell me again about how the US military can easily overpower unorganized militias with sub-standard weapons.

Cory Booker wants all gun owners to have a federal firearms license. My response - we already do, and it's called the 2nd Amendment. Of course, he would know that if he would take the time to actually *read* the Constitution.

No, the idea was that in order to form a capable militia, or to otherwise defend the Constitution, the people had the right to keep and bear arms. If the government is in charge of keeping the weapons, there are many vehicles that could be employed by the government, both inane and devious, with which to inhibit the arming of the people. To avoid this, the 2nd specifically says the people have the right to keep and bear. Even the SCOTUS has recognized that. Y'all can't win this argument.

When you pry the gun from my cold dead hands, be careful - the barrel will be very hot. - JSOP, 2013I see... And as I see the problem is that you can grab a gun - to defend the Constitution - and shut everyone in your way to the grocery store... It is obvious that today the Constitution is no under attack, so let the Constitution decide if it needs defense and who should defend it... For now everyone can make himself a champion of Constitution... While I do understand, that those who used to a life that includes hunting and other gun-sports would not want to give it up - they should not! however the current state is that not only one can get arms freely, he also has not responsibility to keep it safe from the bad guys... And that's where it turns to the wrong direction - IMHO, one should have the right to keep arms as much as one wants, but take full responsibility for it. Means that if the gun has been stolen and used for bank robbery, the original owner has the responsibility to explain the why and when...

The Constitution is under attack by those that are bound by it. It always has been.

A document that protects the people from the government always needs protection, and the protectors of the Constitution are the people.

Everyone should be, but that's sadly not the case. This is mostly because the Constitution isn't being taught in school anymore.

The 2nd amendment isn't about "hunting and gun sports".

I'm not going to get drawn into a discussion about "responsible gun ownership". We're talking about the 2nd Amendment.

Maybe that's the problem... Instead of going around the 2nd, America should talk about responsibility (however - if you not teach about your own history I can't see how to teach responsibility to the young :-()

Without a doubt. The Afghanis have been fighting invaders for over a century unlike the ammosexuals in the US.

So in your esteemed (yet inconsequential) opinion, what exactly do you think "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" means?

Maybe he wants to put the well regulated in the "well regulated militia". What is well regulated anyway? It could be anything, per example mandating all firearms to be replaced with bubble guns.
It is and always has been the National Guards. Like the electoral college, this was set up to maintain influence by the states over the federal government.
