I heard “respect for diversity, equity, and inclusion” and “lived experience” in the first 3 minutes… and then they called the 2nd Amendment a “Military Amendment”!

Our country is losing, even if people mean well and are kind.

A: you failed to inform people what "regulate" meant in 1791.
You're smart enough to do it quickly and succinctly too, but you find it odious to admit it to the Hoi Polloi.
B: *"the right of the people"*
Seems crystal clear, if the second *was* a "military amendment"
Why did it say the right of the people?
They could have easily said "the right of the militia", right?
Why they didn't is what modern people with control issues don't like, is that the right of the people means minorities in the ghetto have the same 2nd amendment rights as the rich white people in charge.
