USA Today has a survey that asks, “Does the Second Amendment give individuals the right to bear arms?” Over 1 millions votes have been cast… can you guess the percentages?
Go take the survey and then leave a comment. I think you will find it surprising...

DENNY THANK YOU for your spreading of the word. I cannot take such surveys nor read the peoples responses--I am sure to be broken hearted. But I do know what the father and writer of the Constitution - Thomas Jefferson.
Taken from his Inaugural Address (March 04, 1801)
Equal and exact justice to all men, of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political; peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none; the support of the State governments in all their rights, as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns and the surest bulwarks against antirepublican tendencies; the preservation of the General Government in its whole constitutional vigor, as the sheet anchor of our peace at home and safety abroad; a jealous care of the right of election by the people -- a mild and safe corrective of abuses which are lopped by the sword of revolution where peaceable remedies are unprovided; absolute acquiescence in the decisions of the majority, the vital principle of republics, from which is no appeal but to force, the vital principle and immediate parent of despotism; a well-disciplined militia, our best reliance in peace and for the first moments of war till regulars may relieve them; the supremacy of the civil over the military authority; economy in the public expense, that labor may be lightly burthened; the honest payment of our debts and sacred preservation of the public faith; encouragement of agriculture, and of commerce as its handmaid; the diffusion of information and arraignment of all abuses at the bar of the public reason; freedom of religion; freedom of the press, and freedom of person under the protection of the habeas corpus, and trial by juries impartially selected.
I believe that takes care of more than just the 2nd. LS/5150
I wasn't suprised.
