Interesting research on mass shootings

Yeah, so-called “originalists” are nothing of the sort. At the time the second amendment was written, there were specific meanings for “militia” and “bearing arms”, and the arms they were talking about was flintlock rifles. That’s the original meaning, and any honest true originalist would agree.

Now, gunners (and their “originalist” far-right allies) have decided that it means anyone is guaranteed their semi-automatic assault rifles, in any number, for any purpose. By this logic, anyone should also be guaranteed their personal stock of Sarin or phosgene gas. Hey, they’re chemical arms.
