I sort of want to argue with you about your recent quoting of the Second Amendment, but first I think I should know with what mindset you're quoting it. Principle of extrapolation? Restriction to be worked around? Law? Representation of certain mindset? Something else?

Shitposting.

Well, not entirely shitposting.

Let’s be honest. That policy is not going to happen.

Most Americans don’t care enough about civil defense, the gun owners will fight it out of fear that lefitsts will try to use it to take all their guns, groups of leftists will try to use to take all the gun owners’ guns, and so on.

Yes, it’s intended to take a touch of the spirit, of a militia for defense of the country, the distribution of power among the people…

But mostly it was just to be a wacky compromise proposal under Nationalist terms to present what such an alternative might look like. …if it wouldn’t be immediately expanded to try and seize the guns. And for comparison with the Swiss.

Although I’m not joking that I’d like to see martial arts as part of high school curricula in other posts.
