Judge orders search of militia member’s home after finding thousands of rounds of ammo in hotel room

if the 2nd amendment is absolute, why can't felons possess guns and ammo

let's see the NRA dance around that one

by the way, I do support responsible gun ownership; I just think the NRA should go fuck themselves
