Not the Same San Fran I used to know

[Overnight]

Wolverines did not repel the invading force in that movie......they simple fought around one town, remember the East and West Coasts were wiped out with nuclear strikes and then the forces just marched in across the border. It was the military that was fighting the war, not some kids with rifles ..

I do not recall that. In the 1985 version or whenever, I thought the Ruskies just dropped out of planes. I'll have to watch it again.

But in the meanwhile, I am going to eat a cheese danish at you.

Think about that. I am not eating a danish for you, or with you in mind...I am eating it AT you!

HAHA! Attacking you with food consumption! What does that mean? I have no idea! But I am hangry I think! Have at you!

So that is likely to happen in 2023? you are arguing the 2nd amendment I am responding to a specific comment about a belief the second amendment prevented foreign powers from invading the U.S.

Okay, your post did not show who or what post you were replying to, and I have some people on ignore so I may have lost the context along the way.

I think the biggest factor in The US not being invaded is location,its a logistical nightmare getting hundreds of thousands or millions of troops to The US from across the ocean.Hitler wanted to invade The US but gave up on the idea because of how hard it would be to get hundreds of thousands of troops here.The US has border protection The Russians can only dream of.

Kind of unusual in some ways. Most stores in these shit-holes were up and running earlier in time and then just got caught in the general decline of the city. But what was Whole Foods thinking when they opened the store just a year ago? All the signs of the inevitable were there a year ago. You could have asked any local business person or resident how it would go.

Not very smart.

Walmart closing 4 Chicago stores, blaming millions in annual losses
"The simplest explanation is that collectively our Chicago stores have not been profitable since we opened the first one nearly 17 years ago -- these stores lose tens of millions of dollars a year, and their annual losses nearly doubled in just the last five years," Walmart said in a statement.

The Framers were not just concerned about foreign governments. They were also concerned about the ability of the citizenry to fend off the American government should it become tyranical.

Not to forget that little old nasty American Revolution started with the British Army going out to Lexington. And why were they going there? Oh, because the local militia had a powderhouse there and the Brits thought they were beginning to get a little too uppity.

No. Scalia wrote that able bodied and trained citizens are organized they able to defend against tyranny. The tyranny argument is valid within the militia context. Not the individual ownership of a gun. Obviously an individual is not able to withstand tyranny of a nation on their own.

Additionally, a tyrannical government would be without the consent of the people and therefore, not a legal government and not the American government.

As stands under American law, the individual right to bear arms is interpreted to extend in defense of life and property. Which is fine too but as Scalia wrote can obviously be limited.
