think about how insane it is that they tried to assassinate a former president running for president again

just think about how batshit that is

now think about how you basically forgot about it because the world is now desensitized to everything

Since the perpetrator was able to attempt the assassination because America’s founders wrote the words “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, . . .” — my first reaction was to think “THAT ‘militia’ is NOT well-regulated regarding his necessity to free-state security! 😱” 

This was also my reaction to Uvalde, Sandy Hook and other domestic “security” operations by the same “well-regulated militia” envisioned by our founders according to Supreme Court conservatives. None of this feels “well-regulated” 🤷‍♂️

Chocolate rainmaker. Singer. Thinker. Voice

I do love the use of “they” here. Dude was by all accounts a right wing nut

What did the founding fathers mean by "well regulated"?
