Acting hasn’t really worked out for Alyssa Milano since she grew up and stopped being cute, so she’s trying her hand a being a Constitutional scholar. Hey, if Barack Obama can do it, how hard could it be? It turns it it’s very difficult for liberals to understand and interpret the simple straight-forward words our Founding Fathers wrote. According to Milano, the 2nd Amendment guarantees the rights of liberals to take away our guns.
It’s unclear what prompted this tweet-storm, but Milano decided she was going to educate everyone on the true meaning of the 2nd Amendment.
1. Hey, 2A zealots!
Let’s talk about the 2nd Amendment for a second, shall we?
Gun lovers: “Shut up, Melissa Alano, you haven’t been relevant since Who’s The Boss & I’m just practicing my 2nd amendment rights. It’s my constitutional right to own guns. You can’t have my guns.”

You know things are not going well, when she starts out by referring to people who believe in the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms as “zealots.” Is someone who believes in freedom of speech, religion, or the press a 1st Amendment zealot?
For the record, so far she’s right on, except for implying she was ever relevant. We do have the right to own guns and she and her liberal extremists do not have the right to take them away. Guess what? She’s about to disagree with this:
2. My response to all of you 2Aers is this:
If you’re in the National Guard, you can carry an M16. If you’re in your house defending your family, well, the Supreme Court said that’s OK too.
You have the right to bear arms.
BUT…AND IT IS A BIG FUCKING BUT…

The Suprme Court said we can own M16s? When? Why don’t I have one? Oh, it just occurred to me that as a liberal anti-gun lunatic, Milano has no idea that select-fire M16s are different than semi-automatic AR-15s.
And speaking of big butts, here’s the single dumbest thing in this Twitter rant:
3. But…there’s nothing in 2A that prevents sensible regulation.
That’s why you’re not ‘practicing’ your constitutional right to bear arms w/ a pipe bomb or sarin gas or a Huey.
We the People get to decide how ‘well-regulated’ you are.

There’s nothing in the 2nd Amendment that prevents liberal assholes from taking our guns? What about the words, shall not be infringed? Again, the 2nd Amendment, like all of the Bill of Rights is very simple and says specifically that the government may not f*ck with our rights in any way and that includes whatever liberals think is “sensible” gun control.
Also, I don’t know if Milano is aware of this, but plenty of private citizens own helicopters. The Constitution is strangely silent on the right of helicopter ownership, but certainly doesn’t restrict it.
4. In closing, I ask gun zealots this:
Don’t you want the country to be a safer place? For your loved ones? For your babies?
We only want regulation. We only want to ensure guns don’t get into the wrong hands. We only want to live in a country free of preventable gun violence.

They only want regulation? That’s in odd way of saying she and the liberals would like to take our guns and restrict us from getting new ones. I’d be interested to know what she considers “preventable gun violence.” Since most gun crime is committed by criminals who don’t care what the law says and all gun control is aimed at law-abiding people, how does she think her plan to disarm the good people of America will prevent anything?
Yes, gun owners want our country and families to be safe and that’s why we own guns. The bad guys aren’t going to give up their guns, so if liberals had their way and took our guns, this country and our families would be sitting ducks and that’s only safe for the criminals.
This thing is already a smelly mess, but where Milano goes completely wrong is claiming that if “we the people” want to restrict gun ownership and ban guns they can. Even if the representatives of the people in Congress decided to do away with gun ownership, it’s still protected by the Constitution. That’s why it was written; so the government couldn’t mess with it. This is a failure on Milano’s part to understand the basics of our government, the separation of powers, and the very foundation of our country.
But hey, Milano is at least as good at Constitutional scholarship as Barack Obama, so she’s got that going for her. That’s kind of like saying she’s as good at driving as Ted Kennedy or winning elections as Hillary Clinton, but she has so little so let’s give her this one.
