So you really think that 2A is for overthrowing the Government as a right?

Yes. Who doesn’t? What do you think it’s for?

 

[nortatoga]

Yes. Who doesn’t? What do you think it’s for?

As a Right!!

 

[Marine Cpl]

As a Right!!

For what purpose?

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

I would say thats exactly what was intended.

Jefferson on the right to change one’s government (1776) - Online Library of Liberty

it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.****

 

[nortatoga]

For what purpose?

So then you think that you can't be charged with Treason?

 

[Darth]

Yeah @Willjr75, don't you think the government might not approve of you disliking them?

 

[Marine Cpl]

I have no words.

By a tyrannical gov thst needs to be overthrown you can be. Even if it’s a bs charge. Hence the reason for the 2a. What else is it for?

 

[nortatoga]

It is the ability too! Not the Right too! Big difference! You fail you don't get to say the 2A gave me the Right and now I can go home.

I think you need to read the Declaration of Independence. It may clear up any confusion, misinformation, or perhaps incorrect history lessons you were taught on the purpose of the 2nd Amendment. It may not be entirely your fault. It could be your teacher’s fault for misinforming you.

The 2A doesn't say you can overthrow the government.

It *does* say you can have *the means* to overthrow the government.

Just like it says you can carry a gun, but doesn't say you can fire it wherever you want.

Treason has a very specific definition, did anybody care to look it up? Its in support of an enemy,We the people are not the enemy.

So then you think that you can't be charged with Treason?

The Declaration of Independence says you not only have a right to overthrow the government in certain circumstances, but a duty to do so.

But, and here's the kicker, while you have a right to successfully overthrow the government in those circumstances, you do not have a right to try and fail.

If you try and fail, the founding fathers fully expected you to be executed for the attempt.

What this boils down to is that a successful insurrection can establish a legitimate government (a concept the nobility of Europe at the time would have rejected, they still believed the right to rule was basically hereditary).

Exactly.

The word he was looking for would be "sedition", I believe.

No Treason is the correct word.

Not Sedition.
