The original definition of militia was every able bodied person that could use a gun.

Yep. There were laws created that prevented newly freed slaves from owning guns.

The 2A is for both individual and militia. Problem with conservatives today is that they have been deceived to believe it is only for individual. Hence they form their argument around individual rights, self-protection, stand your ground, etc... none of which is for the main purpose of 2A, which is to prevent the take over of a tyrannical government.

2A guarantees the legal rights of "regulated" militia. Again, conservatives have been misled to believe "regulated" means gun control. No, "regulated" means training and organization. We are allowed to form regulated militia to defend our rights. A militia can be as small as a handful of individuals or it can be a state wide military like Texas. If Texas secedes today, they have the military power to resist if the federal government decides to invade.

This is important because a bunch of individuals with guns is not a threat to a tyrannical government. However, regulated (trained and organized) bunch of armed individual is. The real threat to tyranny is organization, this is why China bans religion. The monks, priests, and pastors don't even have guns.This is what conservatives should be focused on when it comes to 2A.

It wasn't until years later, I think it was during Woodrow "the moron" Wilson who we created a permanent standing army. Prior to that we had no regular army.

Semi correct.

We always had a Cadre of officers, NCOs and enlisted men. It was a small force, as was the Navy and Corp.

For WWI this force was expanded exponentially. For the first time after the war the RIF (Reduction in Force) was not massive.

For WWII the forces were again multiplied. And again again the RIF was smaller. Korea, Vietnam, middle east.

how to get imgflip to support the black panther movement:

remind them that the group literally developed when california passed gun control laws after a few lawmakers saw a black guy with a gun

don't think they won't do the same when lgbtq individuals purchase a gun

They carried long guns into the state house legally.

"The black panthers preced the rise of gun control."

however, part of the process in their development was the result of the california government passing state legislature that would disarm them. the news kept that part a secret

They were carrying guns in the street for years before the legislature stopped them.

Banning guns had nothing to do with their organization.

Yes, they were his prime reason for the legislation.

Ronny 'Crack Epidemic' Reagan also had the FBI transport heroin into their neighborhoods to 'quell' the population, something he expanded upon as president with having the CIA bring cocaine to inner cities throughout America.
Reckon his boss Nancy had the day off that day.
