July 23, 2012 - PPM - Second Amendment redux
This week's PET PEEVE MONDAY (PPM) is an oldie but goodie.
I first blogged about the arcane and antiquated nature of the Second Amendment in 2006.

This was 7 years after Columbine, but before the VA Tech, Fort Hood, Arizona, and Aurora shootings.
The fact that as a registered Republican, I may disagree with the NRA may surprise some Jabberwockers.
Bottom line, I'm more like Popeye. "I yam what I yam."

Popeye! I would say your more like Olive Oil!
Additional points to consider:
It is currently illegal to carry a concealed weapon when consuming alcohol. Criminals do not obey this law.
New York, Chicago, LA, and Washington DC have bans against firearms and also have the highest incidents of crimes with firearms. I'm sure you've heard this before.... making firearms illegal does not take them away from criminals, only law abiding citizens.
Firearms in this household are treated with respect and are locked down when appropriate. All members of our household have received training in the use of firearms, we are a safer household than one without firearms.
It is our choice and our right to be prepared and to have the ability to protect our family and household against criminal activity.
This is slightly revised and re-submitted from your earlier blog.
