Why even have the 2nd Amendment?
I don't understand why we have the 2nd amendment if states can do whatever they want and strip citizens of their rights.
Why are the rights of some citizens protected while others can just fend for themselves and hope 911 works like magic, sending officers to appear suddenly at the drop of a hat?
How does this work, I thought the RKBA is a Country level thing, what gives the state the right to say, "No you don't understand, Pennsylvania can have that right because they are over there and we don't care what they do."Last edited by NJEMTGUY3007; November 12th, 2009 at 08:30 AM.

Re: Why even have the 2nd Amendment?
I don't know anything about the Penn area, the only place I've ever visited was Fort Indiantown Gap for training with the army and Philly. I don't know if you guys use only paramedics or EMT-basics, I'm in school right now in Jersey City so I'm kinda really strapped for cash, its pretty funny that the University I go to is in one of the most crime ridden areas and even the security guards don't have guns. I still manage to put concealedcampus.com stickers all over the campus.

Why can't they just unify the country instead of this state to state garbage?
Why do we even have the constitution or the bill of rights, its like having a list of things you should have but can't.All gave some and some gave all. Come home safe, brave warriors.

Re: Why even have the 2nd Amendment?
I am totally amazed at the level of repression of the Second Amendment rights in NJ. Me and my buddy Johnny (9yr old,no father,single mom, Hangs out with me) went to a Dicks to get fishing gear and I saw a Cricket .22. I asked if we could see the rifle and the guy behind the counter said not without a permit to buy, drivers lic. and another form of ID and the child cannot handle the weapon.
I said HUH? He said State laws sorry. I said "Its my right to buy this firearm and it shall not be infringed upon". He said "You must be from PA, Not in NJ"
