PIRATES VS. NINJAS

everyone has their opinion over pirates and ninjas. its hilarious. people truly think that a barnacle blasting pirate could beat a sleek serpent-like ninja. not possible. I will show the research to prove the ninja's superior skill and killing power to the pirate.
"oh pirates have guns and junk. They have cool hats and are bad to the bone. Pirates eat people for lunch and make weapons out of the bones of their enemies. They must be better."

Rhetorical Response
The Second Amendment and The Right to Bear Arms
The Second Amendment states that the people‘s right to “a well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to bear arms, shall not be infringed”. This amendment has been fought over and judged just as much, if not more, than any other amendment. The standing question is: do the people have a collective right to form a small militia, or does each individual have a right to a firearm? The “moral” choice has long been to illegalize weapons to the mass public. This choice would certainly cut down on crime and death rates. Nonetheless, self defense against anything that may need a bit more distance than the edge of a blade to properly defend oneself calls for a firearm. It is in the individual’s best interest and right to own a firearm for self defense and preservation and to stop said actions is indeed an infringement.
There is absolutely no way to stop the illegal sales of firearms. In the legal sale of a firearm there are background checks and such, as there very well should be. The type of weapon sold in monitored. Military grade products are not usually available to the public. The only event that would occur in an instance where legal firearm sales were made non-existent would be an augmentation in illegal sales. This would take to money out of the honest American’s pocket and supply it directly to the underworld of the U.S. If crooks have guns, so should the honest American for a guaranteed defense.
Due to the current state of the economy and the ruling dealing with the “clear and present danger” doctrine in Schenck v. United States, it is most likely illegal to make this point out loud. Another clear reason for the individual’s right to keep firearms to remain legal versus the state controlled militia alternative is the possibility of a revolution. The government must protect the people from itself. This amendment makes it possible for and overturn in power if need be. America was built on such men who owned firearms and marched into their own cornfield for their freedom. To try and put a stop to the same spirit that made America would be hypocritical, which is not a surprise coming from the government, and unpatriotic.
I have full faith that America is in no need for a revolution, nor will it be as long as I live. However, self-preservation is important, especially when guns are rampant in a world where it is a severe disadvantage to own one in defense. The second amendment protects the individual’s right to bear arms and it always will.
