Recently a young lady posted a pic in support of Trump and the 2A. As such at least one person tried to have her arrested. I'm biased on the matter so I'll refrain for making any comments until others post their thoughts on the topic. Should American's defend it or repeal it. While I feel - this is an easy yes or no - more detailed reasoning would be appreciated.

I think everyone her on RP knows where I stand on this - but yes it is sad that we now need to actively defend our rights protected in the Constitution.

Exactly. So long as it's still part of the Constitution, it's covered. If anyone thinks they'll legislate it out of relevance, it's still covered. They might try to amend it out of existence, but that's a discussion I'm more than willing to entertain. With facts. Lots of them. And history.

SGT Aaron Atwood - Yea I made it my computer background so I could constantly research which bridge she had in the background as well as what pistol she is carrying. Further study is required.

I want to go to the same spot and take a satirical picture, but I'm not sure anyone would be able to see the gun under my gut...
