Can anyone give me the definition of well-regulated? I must be missing something. Does that mean confiscation or regulation?

I had a very good education. All the way up the line. I learned to read and use the dictionary and do the research. If I didn't understand a word, I looked it up in that left-wing propaganda publication called, "THE DICTIONARY." I say left-wing because right-wingers don't seem to be able to read that word or know what it means.

Republicans and the NRA have convinced extremists and righties that regulate means confiscate. They say no regulation is needed. Just simply "KEEP GUNS OUT OF THE HANDS OF THOSE WHO SHOULDN'T HAVE THEM - Mentally challenged, convicted felons (unless they are Republican felons or large Republican contributors), children (unless their parents our members of the NRA), poor people, Muslims, Jews, any Middle-Easterner or Mexican, wife-beaters, alcoholics, rapists, child molesters, gang members, spousal abusers, suicidal people and many other categories.)

However, they don't tell you how to find out if a gun purchaser falls into one of these categories. The best way is through registration, which is a form of regulation. With comprehensive registration and a reasonable background check period of time, these people can be weeded out, following the gun-rights desires.

Another way is mandatory gun locking systems, fingerprint ID or codes. A way of regulating who has access to that weapon.

But, rather than allow these simple fixes, the NRA has brainwashed people into objecting to something that even the NRA PROPOSED years ago, is simply unacceptable. They have convinced people that regulation means their taking away over 375 million guns (2016 #s) from almost 50% of the people in the US.

The logic is amazing. The government has trouble getting rid of 4 armed militiamen in Oregon. Imagine 165 million people.

By the way...regulate |ˈregyəˌlāt| verb [ with obj. ]
• control or supervise (something, especially a company or business activity) by means of rules and regulations: the organization that regulates fishing in the region.
reg·u·la·tion (rĕg′yə-lā′shən) n.
1. The act of regulating or the state of being regulated.
2. A principle, rule, or law designed to control or govern conduct.

3. A governmental order having the force of law. Also called executive order.

VERY IMPORTANT! - trump successfully diverted attention all week with his false rhetoric, tweets and insults, defaming veterans, Puerto Ricans, widows of dead soldiers, a Black Congresswoman, and who knows how much more, while his new, "old friend," Mitch McConnell set his Mongol Army on American Citizens. trump is the beginning of the final chapter of the Republican effort to show, Democracy doesn't work. The Country doesn't work. To bring down the Whole Country and Stephen  Bannon STATED VERBALLY and in PRINT he wanted to do. Reduce the Federal Government to a small "caretaker" government, where the citizens MUST rely strictly on their own for survival, no matter the circumstances. NO ENTITLEMENTS of any source (MEDICARE and SOCIAL SECURITY ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS.  BEWARE OF trump's TRICKS. Now you can see how they work.  > trump did his job. While he diverted the country with his insults and inane comments, lies and B.S., and the media assist...

Hypocrites or not? You decide..

. SHELDON METZ · SUNDAY, MAY 1, 2016 To my ultra-religious friends who quote bible passages and support Trump, how about hearing this when he speaks on TV? Actual quotes fro a rally: DROPPING THE F - BOMB: "The Donald," as he is known, enters the arena, more as a billboard for self inflicted controversy. The supreme aggrandizer, somehow, stays in the game. Willing to use opening phrases such as, "Listen You Mother F*ckers …," which is cool, if your, you know, watching a film by Martin Scorsese, a play by David Mamet or listening to a rap song by Ice Cube, but as a presidential candidate, this is not cool at all. Once he gets a taste for the reaction, the audiences nervous laughter, the cussing continues. On Foreign Policy: "We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can't get a f*cking school in Brooklyn." On...

Republican malevolence

The Temp President has created a mess. His vindictive Captain Queeg act and a Captain Ahab, McConnell, at the helm.  Now, a fugleman, Peter Lorre impersonator Lindsey Graham, has decided, amidst the clutter and chaos caused by the new Trump Party, to emulate his not-so-divine leader.  The new Senate Judiciary Chairman has decided during this period of Trump-inspired confusion and disorderliness, to dig up old, settled issues.  He’s decided to use the committee to begin investigations of the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton; maybe Benghazi. Of course, this is nothing but another infant being placed in a position of being able to turn on the gas on the kitchen stove. Pampers diapers must be doing great business in D.C. Trump promised that following the elections, he would request these inquiries. Now, as the self-appointed Lord of Congress, he has his sycophants bidding his orders. Neither he nor McConnell nor Graham nor McCarthy nor 53 Senate Republicans ar...
