Mr Bogus lives up to his name in every regard and this article is not "recent" regardles what your cut and paste from the VPC states.

Along with Saul Cornell, Bogus is a member of the rapidly declining fraternity of "historians" who still hold the dark lantern of the "state's right" or "collective right" aloft, stumbling around searching for a path that doesn't exist.

The "state's right" interpretation is dead; the slavery angle is just one more misapplication of perverted history to serve a political agenda.

And a question directly to you "patriot;" why do you start threads on the 2nd and its interpretation and meaning if you are unwilling to engage in a meaningful discussion on it? There is a reply from me to you addressing your mistaken assumption on the meaning of "well regulated" in your "Second Amendment Rocks" thread that you are ignoring.

It's common courtesy to address replies to you in threads you start before starting new threads.
