.... The original driver behind the 2nd was to enact a right for slave owners in the newly independent States to forcibly put down slave rebellions without interference from a Federal entity. ......
I've had this discussion with a number of American (USA) colleagues over the years and not one of them has been able to tell me what the 2nd Amendment actually says, just that it means that the right to own guns can never be taken away from them.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed"

Not only does the USA now have one of the largest standing armies in the world but the National Guard has replaced the 2nd Amendment "Militia" and has sufficient weaponry of its own so that its members don't have to BYO.

The 2nd Amendment was never about the right to carry arms for personal protection.
 
I won Elvis night at karaoke twice, once with Hound Dog, and again with Burnin' Love.


Dingle, what do you look like in a jumpsuit?


There should be an Elvis impersonator named Yellvis. All Yellvis would do is scream Elvis songs out at the top of his lungs.

I need a team for next season's NBA and this Thon Maker (cool name) hype got me thinking about the Bucks

Are they any chance for building a decent team in the next few seasons?

Portmanteau

They are building very nicely. Took a backwards step this year, but in general they have put together and excellent young core with a very specific competitive advantage (length and athleticism, which Maker complements nicely).

Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the more dynamic young stars in the league and will be fun to follow. Khris Middleton is a very solid pro, Jabari Parker is a former #2 pick a year removed from an ACL so should be coming back into his own. Michael Carter-Williams (point guard) and Greg Monroe (centre) are both mostly well liked prospects but have some deficiencies.

In addition to Thon Maker they've added Matthew Dellavedova who is just about the hardest working player in any sport. Fair dinkum Aussie legend.

A prime team to jump on to retain street cred as they aren't quite a bandwagon team.

Thanks. I was looking at either them or Charlotte because Charlotte are clearly the steeziest team of all time. Dat teal, dat purple, dat logo. But the Bucks got them Aussies plus Bogut back in the day. Feels like it should be 'our team'.

Antetekounmpo - cool name.
