You'd be wrong, the phrase in the 1790's had nothing to do with government regulation. Well regulated in ye olde English means in working order, in this case referring to people being armed and having their own ammo and such things.

And having guns that work instead of blowing up in their face.
Sure that was a problem with a few early firearms.

Kinda fix'd that after 1905. Something about eyeballing the heat-treatment process without indoor-lighting.
Modern laser-thermometers and thermocouples have just about gotten that art down to an exact science.

Well, since we should have a 'well-regulated militia', and ARs are originally army weapons, then we should have ARs to form a 1783-style militia.

Most firearms require military in origin. Papa’s deer rifle? Based off of late 19th century military boltactions. Lever actions? The Assualt rifles of the American Civil war. Pump action shotguns? The Germans wanted them to be banned from warfare as WMDs due to the damage they cause in close quarters.

The whole "weapons of war" that has been used alot as of late by brain dead anti gunners, is stupid, purely emotionally driven and shows their ignorance and the response should be met with a "so fucking what!" The nuts and bolts of it all, the 2nd Amendment covers so called "weapons of war" or as we POTG call them, firearms.

Usually I tend to find that The Washington Post is a pretty good place for news and is usually rational and logical; until they begin talking about guns, then it's like all logic and rationality and trying to be unbiased just goes out the window.

To be fair. Yes. But I'd still read the WP over, say, Breitbart, because over at Breitbart, logic goes out the window while talking about guns too, but at least the WP has logic 99% of the time. But, I would support a ban on assault wweapons even if the WP said no.

1. I'll agree with you on the statement about WP and Breitbart
2. I disagree with the ban on assault weapons

Call me a crazy liberal if you want, but I support assault weapons bans. I personally think that there would be fewer mass shootings if you couldn't buy an AR-15.

AR bans are honestly just bandaids. What needs to be regulated is the purchasing process, not what kinds of guns people can buy.
