    I believe the Constitution requires them to bear arms in defence of their county, not to massacre their own countrymen

    I remember reading somewhere that it allows them to, rather than requires them to - a cheap form of army that could be quickly mobilised I suppose.
    It was a good few years ago though, so I may be wrong.

    It does require them to defend their country, but as with most "ideologies" it is open to interpretation

    They are also permitted to own firearms to protect themselves and or families from intruders to their property

    Again open to interpretation

    It was based on the idea of a civilian militia as opposed to full sized permanent army

    That is what they said when that South African "female" athlete was born

    I bet we would be astonished at how many boys are born with female genitals and vice versa and I do not mean the new age trans genders
