Default Re: I favour a small efficient government

A small efficient government would ban gun sales except to a properly regulated militia.

LMAO.

So, ACPlayer: why didn't the government do just that when it was far smaller and more efficient than it is today, when the Constitution and 2nd Amendment were actually written? Why didn't they follow through and ban gun sales, just as you suggest, way back THEN?

Answer: because that was not what the lawmakers intended when writing those documents. Moreover, they, and the rest of the country, knew it.
