If the founding fathers were here today they would have no issue with present taxation considering that tax revenues go towards providing services to its citizens - including by far the world's largest standing military. that military would blow their minds.

people want to use the founding fathers as best suits their own present day political and personal agendas. the world they lived in was a very different one than we live in today.

the right to bear arms is constitutionally protected by the Second Amendment and nobody is trying to take that right away from the People. i hate when liberals try to twist the Second Amendment to make an argument for total gun control as much as i hate when right wingers twist it to make an argument that they have a right to build a backyard nuclear bomb and rocket launchers. Restricting ownership of some types of 'arms' has passed the muster of no less than the Supreme Court of the United States.

stop crying!
