Refer to Second Amendment of our Constitution.


written 200 years ago


So were the parts about freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the
right to a trial and so on. Do you figure all the Bill of Rights is
out of date?

'Arms' are a little different than they were 224 years ago. At the time,
they only had single shot muzzle loading firearms.
The subject of the other freedoms have not changed as much.


exactly. guns are the ONLY technology related issue in the
constitution. not only have the nature of guns changed but so has the
fact we have a standing army, etc.
