In 18th-century England, armed travel was limited to a few well-defined occasions such as assisting justices of the peace and constables. Members of the upper classes also had a limited exception to travel with arms. Concealable weapons such as handguns were subject to even more stringent restrictions."
Which was an out and out lie as i have pointed out any one could have a gun and travel with it until 1870 when they had to buy a license and anyone could buy a license at the Post Office.
I will say that i am tired mud wrestling and i am now done and i am going shooting
No, man - you're good. you're giving back what you're getting - it's Stan that keeps referring to this stuff. You feel free to do exactly what you're doing, because you're right...
Stan keeps injecting this junk into his own argument, and it's a completely invalid argument that he's trying to make.
On April 19th, 1775, nothing that the English said anymore, in reference to ANYTHING in America, mattered anymore. That's the day that we'd had enough of the powder and bullet confiscation (not about "tea" at all), and we proceeded to hand them their ass back. We became a free nation, starting THAT day.
