In the summer of 1619, the leaders of the fledgling Jamestown colony came together as the first general assembly to enact “just Laws for the happy guiding and governing of the people there inhabiting.” Consisting of the governor, Sir George Yeardley; his four councillors; and 22 elected “burgesses,” or representatives, the group approved more than 30 measures. Among them was the nation’s first gun law:
That no man do sell or give any Indians any piece, shot, or powder, or any other arms offensive or defensive, upon pain of being held a traitor to the colony and of being hanged as soon as the fact is proved, without all redemption.
This is essentially what he tries to argue the entire article, poorly, as the majority of his “gun laws” were either don’t give guns to non-citizens or hostile foreigners. He throws in some anti union laws and pretends it was “weapon control”.
That no man do sell or give any Indians any piece, shot, or powder, or any other arms offensive or defensive, upon pain of being held a traitor to the colony and of being hanged as soon as the fact is proved, without all redemption.
That just means gun control is the result of White Supremacy and should be abolished
I seem to remember some important event between this and the Constitution in 1787. Oh yeah, that's right, the people overthrew the government. Do you think they did not know about some gun laws of the past? American gun rights are rooted in protecting the people from the government.
Moreover, gun control is even starting to lose its popularity with all but the most hardcore of Leftist, to the point that it is the single most losing issue they have. They tried and failed. America will never willingly give up its guns. And I know a ton of former/current Centrist who changed their outlook on guns after Covid and the 2020 riots.
We are at a point where it is more likely the NFA will be repealed than the 2nd Amendment. And you cant tell it makes the government seethe.

Is this where they drone on about the laws applied to freed slaves in the South for a while? Cuz that's where we really wanna go back to.

I've never been anti gun, but I'd never had any desire to own any.
That changed when the US government decided that it should try to find a way to force me to take an injection.
