What exactly does this mean?

I happen to think that owning, knowing how to operate, and keeping weapons
in good functioning order is a predicate to a free society -- yes, including
and particularly, guns. It may be trite but: freemen bear arms. [N.B.
freemen is not a typo.]

Baldly stated, I believe that when you lose your guns you will also lose
your liberty.  I can think of no history that would contradict that view.

K, if you wish to misinterpret the 'if a law is unjust there are ways to
work within the system to get rid of said law' go ahead.  It comes with the
territory of... anyone... anyone--right--a Democracy.

And which democracy would this be?  In the states we have a republic --
which I think is much better.
