FACT CHECK: Is Left-Wing Violence Rising?

quote [ those who track extremism say that while there are a few far-left groups that raise red flags, their numbers remain small. ]

So says the 'fake news media' anyway. Needless to say, fact checks are moot when people's minds are irrevocably made up.

The militias ARE free individuals in the eyes of the constitution. It was written at a time when we had a small standing Army and relied on free men willing to fight alongside the standard regiments. If you think the founding fathers didn't wholeheartedly support the right to the individual to own firearms, you're sorely mistaken or literally trying to rewrite history to fit your own bias. There's literally thousands of pages of documentation from Jefferson and Washington alone meticulously outlining not just their support of an armed society, but demands for it. Many of them even advocated that regular citizens shouldn't be allowed to own just rifles and muskets, but cannon, mines and bombs as well. None of the bullshit that you claim is proof of the 'founding fathers secretly being anti-gun' is anything other than somebody trying to ignore the centuries of debate on the topic. The founding fathers were pro-gun as it gets. Educate yourself on this matter before you further look like a fool.
