When the defining document of our country starts with "We the PEOPLE" and reffers to "the PEOPLE" in several key phrases as a contrast to the states or the federal governments

Everyone understands that people means the citizens when it says

"The right of the people peaceably to assemble"
or
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects"

but then a phase is well written as "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms" is written down, soehow these incrediably detailed wordsmiths meant somebody else????? just in this phase??? Really????


and even worse is the 4 out of 9 sitting SCOTUS members think is means something else

For anyone interested, here is a list of exhibitors who chose to boycott the show prior to it's postponement. I humbly suggest that they need our support for the rights they have chosen to stand for.

Although inappropriately titled (ESOS isn't a gun show), here's a good article on the show's postponement.
