Well, again, we've only talked about it today because you've brought it up today. I've said I'm a licensed attorney in the state of Florida, I've
never claimed I was working full time as an attorney. Precisely because I don't care for 60 (or 70. or 80.) hour work weeks. I mean, if I was putting in those kinds of hours I wouldn't have time to still have fewer than 20% of your post count. The only reason I ever pointed it out in the first place was because I was seeing some comically erroneous things about the law being asserted as fact and figured I'd try to help, but that was well before I understood you, nothing I'd have bothered attempting now.
As for what "nobody" believes, you're the only person I've noticed even openly express doubt. Is that people with more real life experience in or around the law that can tell I'm not making it up as I go, realizing I'm not lying? Is that people with more general class and maturity figuring it's pointless and snide to bother calling me on it if they thing I am? A mix of both? Who can say?
Lemme go ahead and do about 18,000 of your posts in quick recap... fallacy fallacy citation raw data fallacy anecdote correlation. You continually run home to your favorite pile of catchphrases that let you attempt to bluff your way past having no particular specialized knowledge of relevance to guns, the law, or the law about guns. One of the most awkward and limp of these is to insist on citation for even self-evident assertions like that court opinions are called opinions, or that Article V of the Constitution is the one that deals with amendments, or that the 5th Amendment contains the self-incrimination clause.
Regardless, spam on, I'm sure you'll be quite pleased with however cuttingly clever you find your next response. I'll turn my attention to debating people with something of substance to say.
See, I'm good with that. The polity has at its core a duty to its own education and participation and engagement, it's not for their servants in the government to rise up and oversee them. That's one of the reasons why Madison wrote so extensively about the character of the people, and why John Adams gave us this favorite quote of mine -- "we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. . . . Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." (for Tuts -- (Source: John Adams, The Works of John Adams, Second President of the United States, Charles Francis Adams, editor (Boston: Little, Brown, and Co. 1854), Vol. IX, p. 229, October 11, 1798.)

Can shave religion/religious out of the quote if you like, but it still amounts to the same thing -- the republican form of government is entirely at the mercy of the moral integrity of the polity, and that, at least to me, also means its engagement with affairs of state and civic participation. But all that said, even a dunderhead polity is still the sovereign in a republic, and must have its way.
