Implying that conditions changes over time.
Here's a pic to illustrate:



U taught me two things with that sentence: I have learnt what a cesspool is and that you have no clue about the state of my country.

Apologies, I thought you were from the UK, didn't look at the top to see where you are from. And Brits, I do like your country, I've been there long ago (1972) and totally fell for the place, but I probably would not recognise it now.

I still wonder why you feel freedom as granted in our Constitution is out of date though? Times may change but basic human rights do not.

That's why we tossed Mad King George and his rented German thugs out in the first place.

We all have made our choices, and we all have the right to keep them as we see fit. Europeans are used to living in societies where power is exercized from the top down, because of centuries of conditioning being ruled by kings.

We rejected that right from the start and are used to power deriving from the people, and having founding fathers that understood that protecting the people from their government is the single most important aspect of civil life.

But enough of this banter, time for something completely different.

And why add the date of adoption of the US Constitution? Are you implying that somehow our freedoms are out of date?

If so you deserve the cess pool that your country is turning into.

and that's a bit strong el, i'm surprised you've said that really.

It is unconstitutional

...or perhaps when gun regulation makes it near impossible for villains to obtain a gun.

There are still states in the US where you can buy and trade guns at local guns shows without government paperwork.

You can buy semi-automatic weapons as well.

This thread is getting very close to political discussion, re-read what you are posting. Or... this thread may have run it's course for the topic.
