The 2nd Amendment says gun ownership MUST BE REGULATED

I'm not certain what  those on the right, and gun patriots are not getting or CAN'T understand. The Second Amendment is VERY clear.
"A WELL REGULATED Militia (emphasis mine), being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. "
The Constitution says that the militia must be WELL REGULATED. 
Please, someone, tell me what does WELL REGULATED MEAN TO YOU? They are called Gun Regulations. In order to form a militia, the government must know who to call up for our security. People do  have a right to carry arms under WELL REGULATED circumstances.
NO one wants to takes guns away, simply make certain those who have them are safe and can join the militia, if we ever need them called up.

Education is the key to civility

Republicans have been in a “war” against public education for many decades; invariably against funding to support America’s most vital institution(s).  Techniques are to oppose state and Federal  initiatives to decrease taxes spent to support public schooling in states under their control; encourage charter schools owned by wealthy, private Republican donors; supporting anti-education individuals to “run” the State and Federal systems (DeVoss?); allow absurd tuition increases; closing schools in desperately needed areas; cutting educators’ salaries; lacking raises, pensions,  maintenance, supply, extracurricular activities, new books and supportive materials; and, much more. They profess their “support” of education; even falsely claiming to be the “party of education.” This includes K-12, H.S. and College/University levels.  Schoolbooks, such as those produced primarily by the Texas Republican State Board of Education, deny mention of significant historic...

Babyman has a conniption fit

There is no there with the Tyrant-in-Charge of our new autocracy. He usurped the Senate by taking over supervision of Mitch McConnell, as he did to Paul Ryan, a man who turned into a eunuch under Trump. I wonder what Trump’s offered these members of the Sycophant Party? Pelosi used her authority to determine risk in presenting the State of the Union, saying he could submit it in writing, the usual procedure until the 1970s. Babyman had a conniption fit, canceling Pelosi ’s plane ride to Afghanistan, offering support to our military, and gaining vital information from the front lines. This trip was to understand the issues better, an opportunity always allowed to Congressional leaders.  He claimed it was due to the shutdown and just a publicity tour. However, that didn’t keep him from a photo op trip to Iraq or allowing a Republican delegation to go, or allowing Melania to fly to Mar-a-Lago, on U.S. aircraft, all during the shutdown.
I still have some people - not many - who support trump, as it turns out. Even those of my persuasion. They think trump is good for the U.S. because he supports Israel. I agree, that's great. And, despite what trump created with Obama's being a Muslim, born in Kenya, even Obama was supportive of Israel. Netanyahu was rude to Obama, even during the campaign which people forget about, and still, Obama was kind a respectful.  AGAIN, I say, trump's decision to back out of the Iranian deal would allow Iran to return to their Nuclear dreams, which is NOT good for Israel or the U.S. They would firstTHREATEN Israel often and Blackmail the U.S. That is common sense when you take time to think about it.
