I am european and not american, but since reddit is mostly used by americans I would say that from their prospective political violence is justified and encoded in the constitution. How would you explain the second emendment?

> A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State

Isn't really political. By my reading the clause also invalidates the entire amendement soon as the US aquired a standing army, but I'm not from the US so, who knows.

It seems odd to not quote the full amendment. It’s not like it’s long.

The phrasing in total is far more vague than what you’re presenting.
