Title: Condoleezza Rice says US needs to consider Second Amendment's place in 'modern world'

This month's massacre in Parkland, Fla., seems like a key moment in the nation's ongoing debate about the Second Amendment, former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said during a radio interview Friday.

“I think it is time to have a conversation about what the right to bear arms means in the modern world,” Rice told radio host Hugh Hewitt on Friday. “I don’t understand why civilians need to have access to military weapons. We wouldn’t say you can go out and buy a tank.”

More specifically, Rice said weapons like the AR-15 rifle that authorities say shooting suspect Nikolas Cruz, 19, used to kill 17 students and teachers Feb. 14, shouldn't be available to civilians, the Washington Times reported.

But Rice, who served under President George W. Bush, made clear that she remains a believer in the Second Amendment.

“We can’t throw away the Second Amendment and keep the First,” she said, adding that she considers the first two amendments to the Constitution to be “indivisible.”

“We can’t throw away the Second Amendment and keep the First.” - Condoleezza Rice, former U.S. secretary of state

Hewitt then asked if Rice -- being an educator herself as a political science professor at Stanford University -- supports the idea of teachers carrying guns as a deterrent to potential campus shootings.

Rice said she doesn’t think that is “going to be the answer,” the Washington Times reported.

“I don’t really like the idea, frankly, of a gun in my classroom,” she said.

Rather, she supports looking to law enforcement and guards as ways for protection.

Rice, 63, was exposed to senseless violence at an early age, having grown up in Birmingham, Ala., where the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in 1963 resulted in the deaths of four young girls. She has written and spoken frequently about the impression the horrific event made on her.

She told Hewitt that despite her reservations about weapons in the classroom, the proposal merited a serious discussion.

the notion that the Second Amendment was understood to protect a right to take up arms against the government is absurd.

Au contraire, mon ami.

(A bit of French lingo there to demonstrate my fondness for little froggies.)

The original intent of the second amendment was to offer citizens the opportunity to avoid the type of tyrannical rule that they came to America to escape. This modern government has become so huge and onerous it's fast becoming a threat to all citizens, We hope that a president Trump can stick a sword in the dirigible and deflate it.

Political and social unrest can cause governmental response and unforeseen consequences that impugn the rights of individuals. So, your thinking aobut the purpose and use of the Second Amendment is somewhat skewed.

To protect themselves from a government that, however inadvertently, no longer protects them or, even worse, attempts to persecute them, citizens must be able to maintain their own arms.

If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self- defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, and which against the usurpations of the national rulers, may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success than against those of the rulers of an individual state. In a single state, if the persons intrusted with supreme power become usurpers, the different parcels, subdivisions, or districts of which it consists, having no distinct government in each, can take no regular measures for defense. The citizens must rush tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system, without resource; except in their courage and despair." - Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28

Bravo…wonderful job with that “French lingo.” You may have found something you do well. Stick with it.
This modern government has become so huge and onerous it's fast becoming a threat to all citizens, We hope that a president Trump can stick a sword in the dirigible and deflate it.
That is very true and while you cannot speak for all Americans when you presumptively used “we”….you can however include me in that hope.
The original intent of the second amendment was to offer citizens the opportunity to avoid the type of tyrannical rule that they came to America to escape.
Sorry, but you do not get to decide and dictate what the original intent of the Second Amendment is. Yours is but one of the seemingly endless interpretations of the 27 words in the Second Amendment. You do however have the right to hold and express your pwn opinion. In doing so, it is possible that you have construed your opinion to perfectly match your own personal feelings along with your political desires. Perhaps It would be far wiser to set aside your futile subjective policymaking efforts that has meaning only to you and achieve absolutely no results….then smartly concentrate on electing qualified individuals to represent the American people and replace many of the opinionated and egotistical dumbass bastards now occupying seats in Congress.

The Supreme Court of the United States is the highest tribunal in this great Nation for all cases and controversies that arise about the Constitution. The Supreme Court of the United States is the final arbiter of the Constitution and thereby functions as guardian and interpreter of the Constitution. You get to have an opinion, but that is all you get to have….and this is not an opinion. It’s a stated fact, a fact well worth you understanding and remembering.

Thanks for your post and for taking time to state your personal opinion.

Yes indeed, the Federalist No. 28 is an essay attributed to Alexander Hamilton, the twenty-eighth of The Federalist Papers. It was published on December 26, 1787 under the pseudonym Publius. (I wonder why he did not use his own name, but felt compelled to use a pseudonym…any idea?)

While I totally agree with the sentiments expressed by Alexander Hamilton here, Alexander Hamilton however did not write this statement into the Second Amendment with the intent that the Second Amendment would be as an instrument of insurrection against the our government. In fact, Alexander Hamilton did not even write the Second Amendment. James Madison drafted it, but it was hardly his idea.

Whose idea was it?

"That the Subjects which are Protestants may have Arms for their Defence suitable to their Conditions and as allowed by Law." appears in the English Bill of Rights of 1689. These Protestants would be the group from which the Pilgrims came, who departed England for the New World in 1620 after years of persecution by the English crown. Seventy years later, it was becoming appreciated that they had a right to not be disarmed by the king or queen. It is believed that when it was written, the English didn't see it as granting any right, rather seeking to preserve a 'natural' right that all humans have, which is to be able to defend themselves from attack by aggressors.
I read where some have the opinion that the Second Amendment was written to give the right to take up arms against our government….but we must all come to realize, if we already don’t already, that opinions are like assholes….everybody has one.

While opinions can be freely expressed, it needs to be remembered that the Supreme Court of the United States is the highest tribunal in this great Nation for all cases and controversies that arise about the Constitution. The Supreme Court of the United States is the final arbiter of the Constitution and thereby functions as guardian and interpreter of the Constitution. You get to have an opinion, but that is all you get to have….and this is not an opinion.

So saying the Second Amendment was written for the Americans to take up arms against our government is purely opinionated bullshit. George Washington himself proved this to be true when armed Americans took up guns against what they viewed and George Washington’s administration tyrannical government imposing taxes on of all things, whiskey. Well, President Washington called up 13,000 militia men into the army and Washington personally led the troops to squash the rebellion of armed citizens in Bedford, Pennsylvania.

Thank you for your post.

The Second Amendment RECOGNIZES our pre-existing rights to own and possess arms.

By saying it "protects" it implies the 2nd Amendment can by repealed at convenience.

Yeah,I know. It's semantics and there is only a hairs width of difference between the two words,but I think "recognizes" is a more powerful statement by implying the right existed prior to the formation of our government,and is a natural right.

Yes, it is.
So it is in case someday we the people can kill the people who would enslave us through government!ent, should that become necessary.
As I said before, if the government ever tries to enslave us….there will be no need for a Second Amendment. All hell will break loose and the “We The People” government will be preserved.

And if as you say, should it become necessary, then the gloriously wonderful Oath Keepers will already be on top of the situation and openly combating the government. This non-partisan association of current and formerly serving military, police, and first responders have declared that they will not obey unconstitutional orders, such as orders to disarm the American people, to conduct warrantless searches, or to detain Americans as “enemy combatants” in violation of their ancient right to jury trial. See the Oath Keepers Declaration of Orders We Will Not Obey for details.


Our motto is “Not on our watch!”

You can stand at ease.

It is also so the people can be called up to defend the country against foreign invasion.
If our armed forces cannot handle it, then: Yes.
If you disagree with me you are a dumb ass.
I will always respect your right to express your opinion. I can see that you will not respect my opinion and therefore in your eyes, I am a dumb ass.

Good Bless the First Amendment….and those who respect and honor it.

The whiskey rebelllion wasn't about the right to bear arms.
But the Second Amendment was in effect when an armed insurrection was made against the federal government while George Washington was president. The resisters were war veterans who believed that they were fighting for the principles of the American Revolution.
Throughout Western Pennsylvania counties, protesters used violence and intimidation to prevent federal officials from collecting the tax. Resistance came to a climax in July 1794, when a U.S. marshal arrived in western Pennsylvania to serve writs to distillers who had not paid the excise. The alarm was raised, and more than 500 armed men attacked the fortified home of tax inspector General John Neville. Washington responded by sending peace commissioners to western Pennsylvania to negotiate with the rebels, while at the same time calling on governors to send a militia force to enforce the tax. Washington himself rode at the head of an army to suppress the insurgency, with 13,000 militiamen provided by the governors of Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
The Second Amendment didn’t do shit to protect the Whiskey Rebellion insurrectionists or in any way enable them to have a successful armed protest against the government under President George Washington.


Washington with the Army heading to put down the Whiskey Rebellion.

The loud-mouth coward asshole rebels all armed and ready for battle wisely decided to turn tail and ran for home before the arrival of the army. So there was no confrontation and their Second Amendment right proved what? As a result of their misguided efforts about 20 men were arrested. In the next six years, over 175 distillers from Kentucky were convicted of violating the tax law.

Doncha think that these “rebels against government” and all the other loud-mouth cowards who to this day continually puff and espouse bravado in a horrifically bold manner in their effort to show their machismo that is intended only to pump their ego as they try to show boldness to impress or intimidate….are really dumbasses?

Gatlins opinion claiming that: --- "saying the Second Amendment was written for the Americans to take up arms against our government is purely opinionated bullshit". --- is purely semantic word-play bullshit itself, --- seeing that everyone here is writing that the first explanatory line of the 2nd explains why the right shall not be infringed.

The milita, the people, --- when no longer living in a free state, --- have a right to take up arms against their oppressive government if it cannot be changed peacefully.

That is the clear intent of the 2nd, and gatlins silly attempt to claim the whiskey rebellion proves otherwise is flawed by the fact that it was about booze taxes, and Washington had no constitutional power to raise an army and confiscate arms.. He acted unconstitutionally, and nothing was done about his act.

Gatlin's facts about the Whiskey Rebellion are wrong anyway. President Washington did NOT lead the Army against the rebels, but gave the job to one of his Revolutionary War Generals.

President Washington later showed up to beat down that general for abusing his powers and arresting and imprisoning people under cruel conditions without reasonable suspicion that they were involved in any way.

Eventually 2 people were tried and given light sentences for the Whiskey Rebellion. George Washington respected the right of armed rebellion against government, so the "perps" were only given a slap on the wrist.

Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.

I'm not worried. They don't even need a warrant to search my house. I have nothing to hide.

You should worry that some agency would question your mental health about the following statement you made : ----

I'd most likely be a rogue combatant... protecting just my own family and killing the parts of my family that endanger my agenda or are dead weight. ---- GrandIsland posted on 2018-02-25

Thank you.

You just sit there and silently take your severe whippings.

I'd think bombs and explosives would be the hot item for underground manufacturing.

================================================

...a host of retired police officers also wrote, calling Gonzales a “domestic terrorist.” They described incidents in which Gonzales’ organization, the Crusade For Justice, turned violent.

Members were arrested on bomb charges, and one battle with police resulted in the shooting death of a young man and an explosion next to the Crusade’s headquarters.

Charles Rowland, who worked with the Denver Police Department’s bomb squad for 21 years, wrote that the city was “known as the bomb capital of the United States. Most of these devices led back to the Crusade. I can’t believe Denver would even think of honoring this person. To me, it’s like hugging Jane Fonda.”

Yep.

Denver Lutheran High School went bankrupt and is now named after "The Poet Laureat of Aztlan".

This non-partisan association of current and formerly serving military, police, and first responders have declared that they will not obey unconstitutional orders, such as orders to disarm the American people, to conduct warrantless searches, or to detain Americans as “enemy combatants” in violation of their ancient right to jury trial.

There goes Parsons again - showing his disdain for those military, law enforcement and first responders who have taken an oath to the Constitution and refuse to obey unconstitutional edicts. Thank God for Patriots like the Oathkeepers who are willing to put their lives on the line and stand against tyranny.

Oathkeepers: Orders we will not obey:

1. We will NOT obey any order to disarm the American people.

That must be why Parson loathes them.

...all the other loud-mouth cowards

The only loud mouthed coward here is you Parsons, submissively grovelling before the almighty State, happy to live on your knees as others are willing to fight back against a tyrannical rogue government.

Those who most loudly denounce Fake News are typically those most aggressively disseminating it.

" Great, legit questions...

He's a goose-stepping Totalitarian Statist. Anti-Constitution. At least it's on record.

No further use in engaging. "

That has been quite clear to anyone paying attention !!

And has been for quite some time !!

Most here know how Tater / Parsons is, and what kind of person he is !!

Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.
