Help restore our total right to bare arms!
Do you think we should repeal the Hughes Amendment ? I found a Petition to help support this. If you believe in the Second Amendment than you might want to take a look at this link. We should be able to have any firearms made and nothing should be banned ! Thanks for your support. Correction The Right to Bear Arms.
Petition . Repeal "The Hughes Amendment" of the FOPA . Change.org

I stand with you in regards to the petition but not so on the "bare arms" as I sunburn easily.

Didn't know it became illegal - I wear short sleeve shirts or roll my sleeves up all the time!

News: The 2A was written denying only the federal government the ability to control guns. Originally, that was a states rights thing. Even in the old west, guns were frequently controlled as running around in towns with guns was considered rude.

News: The 2A was written by the founders whose purpose was to enumerate the Natural Rights of all citizens, specifically the Natural Right to self defense, and more broadly, the obligation to overthrow a tyrannical government that fails to protect the Natural Rights of the citizens, and instead, violates them. The founders understood, and modeled the 2A, around the political philosophy of John Locke, particularly the Second Treatise of Government, Chapters V and XIX.

This petition might be a good idea, although most of these online petitions just disappear into some bottomless bureaucratic data base buried deep in one of thousands of government servers in some anonymous government sub-basement.
Most of these online petitions accomplish just one thing: They allow the signers to believe that they are "doing something"; that they are accomplishing something.
The main problems with this one are that it's only asking for 15K signatures and it's aimed at just one legislator, Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky's 4th District.
Chances are Congress will never even be aware this petition exists, unless Massie just happens to mention it over cocktails at lunch or something.
