King Edward I, Statute of Winchester 1285

King Edward I, The Statute of Winchester 1285 The Second Amendment didn't come about because we dreamed up a new right, it came about to protect an already existing right under Old English Common Law.  Our Constitution protects that institution.  The Posse Comitatus and Militia came about from similar origins and those origins can be traced to King Edward I and beyond.  The Statute of Winchester as shown here is only to show that these rights and duties associated with them existed from ancient times.  It should be noted that while we declared independence from Great Britain in 1776 we did not abandon legal precedents that existed prior to that time. Because from day to day robberies, homicides and arsons are more often committed than they used to be, and felonies cannot be attainted by the oath of Jurors, who had rather suffer felonies done to strangers to go unpunished than indict wrongdoers the greater part of whom are people of the same district, or at...

Yes indeed Guns have changed, but the right remains the same for the same reason

Yes indeed Guns have changed, but the right remains the same for the same reason This is a video that is being passed around on Facebook a lot lately: https://www.facebook.com/news.com.au/videos/1349946491699387/ Let's examine this video: 1) Unlike this video back in the day of muskets more people carried either a musket, a rifle (yes they did exist) or some other firelock (a really big handgun) so people would have been shooting back 2) The guy who was shot was able to run away without a scratch, muskets do a lot more damage than that, depending on how and where you get shot, the musket shot could be more dangerous than the damage done by a modern rifle. 3) Most musket shooters carried a bayonet on their musket for the simple reason that reloading was a problem and a bayonet attached to a musket was more efficient for attacking in close quarters, and this video misses that fact 4)  I have a problem with the fact that everyone ran away from the shooter after he fire...

How the Citizens Militia is Distinct from the State Sponsored Militia

How the "Citizens Militia" is distinct from the state sponsored militia The Militia of the State is but a small portion of "the Militia" as it was understood by the founding fathers.  Unlike the Army and Navy, which were created by the Constitution, the Militia pre-existed the Constitution.  The Constitution simply gave Congress power to call up that portion of the Militia that would be needed in case of national emergency. The founders understood the Militia to be all able bodied male citizens capable of bearing arms, in a previous post The Power of a Tithing , I pointed out that those who were to be trained to aid in the common defense began at the age of 12 and up.  According to US Code, that portion that may be called up to aid the United States consist of all males (with few exceptions) ages 17-45, and most state codes share a uniformity with that code.  There are times however, when the Federal and State Government are either unable or unwilling to a...
