When someone pontificates about honoring veterans on Memorial Day weekend, I wonder what the person thinks. We shove military personnel into conflicts that have little to do with liberty & more to do w/corporate profit. Guy Relford, the gun guy, responded to my earlier blogs. 1/5

Military personnel enter environments laden w/toxins. Agent Orange, in Vietnam, exemplifies the problem. Burn piles distribute this crap into the air & we deny benefits to our people. Worse, we engage in more wars for nothing but corporate profit. Let’s address “2A” rights. 2/5

Mr Relford advocates an interpretation of the 2nd Amendment that is attenuated from what was intended when the Bill of Rights was drafted and ratified. Fresh in the minds of the people who were about to take charge was Shays’ Rebellion, in which veterans of the Revolution.. 3/5

took up arms against those in charge. The Second Amendment was not suicidal for the leaders & technology was not what it is today. If you advocate AR-15s or other advanced weaponry in the hands of teenagers, you add to the problem of mass shootings, as does Mr Relford. 4/5

There’s no reason private citizens should possess weapons of war. If Mr Relford fails to realize this fact, he’s a dumbass, or worse. ’m Mark Small. I’m pro-choice, pro environment, pro-civil rts, anti-gun & GOP candidate for IN Distr 86. I approve of this blog. Hell, I wrote it. 5/5
