You can also make the wall break out into dangerous areas and let nature be a deterrence. Like having it break half way into a dessert.

@Vannevariable : "well regulated militia". Not "well trained".

Anyone with experience In US jury duty, that can answer my question.
From my side of the pond, it looks more like the Mueller Probe is going more after “petty” crime instead of keeping focus on the Russian collusion suspicion. Is the jury involved in any way in the scope of the investigation?

as far as I know no... the Mueller Probe is just a witch hunt at this point, as after two years they haven't found anything on Trump's inner circle.

this is a democratic play to attack him and at the same time keep him from removing democratic officials in the FBI from office

Or you know, he had all of his bases covered well enough to not leave crumbs that can be traced back to him.

And will take a long time to unravel the body of the tentacle.

even if trump is guilty of anything, which honestly theres nothing to give any credence to that idea, hes had 2 years to get rid of anything mueller doesent already know, thats one reason why this is very unlikely to go anywhere

thats one misconsception about investigations, evidence isint static, when people know your trying to dig something up on them they are going to try and get rid of something. the investigation itself assumes that the culprets are going to be lazy and overconfadent and that witnesses will be readly avalible and willing to tell anything. this case was kinda doomed after the 6 month mark when nothing was found

Also a reason why my country had been struggling to unravel a former dictator's vast amount of corruption charges because it's been difficult to find the paper trails.

It's been 21 years since he resigned from the seat of power and even though everyone knows he and his family did things badly, it's still extremely difficult to find the evidence.

Thanks America for destroying a country by doing a coup and putting a dictator on the seat of power.

for the 10th time

lets not forget the other 10 that failed to do that

Let's not forget that the probe may come under investigation now.

Which would be disastrous for it most likely

@DrYuriMom "Well-regulated" in military contexts doesn't mean controlled by the government. It means well-organized and equipped.

"Every citizen should have a shoulder arm and enough shot to fight as a light infantry soldier should time of war require it."

That is from the Federalist Papers

Gib guns.

The CMP should allow US citizens to purchase the current issue service rifle.

Those old Carbines are being used at Intial Entry Training to teach the kids how to use a firearm. So they are not on CMP. In basic my Carbine was dated 1969 on the reciever and updated to A2 standards

Vast majority of retired service rifles were either sold/gifted to foreign countries or else had their lowers destroyed and the remaining parts sold as parts kits. Comparatively few are needed for training. Wikipedia says 8 million M16s were produced (M4s apparently being counted separately).

The ones that they keep around are kicked back in the line to lower priority units. They are not pushing them to CMP these days.

It is taking acts of Congress to get surplus 1911s sold off to CMP

ACTS plural

My original point though was that CMP should allow US citizens to purchase the current issue service rifle, not used ones as parts kits. If the purpose of the second amendment is to have every able-bodied man as a light infantry soldier should the need arise, they should be able to be equipped as such.

you can thank the National Firearms Act for that.

It created disticntions between Comercial / private firearms and Law Enforcement/Military Firearms

For all the criticism of multicultural nations a few minutes ago, it sounds like you're all talking about Switzerland.

no, the US second amendment

Oh, I know

But Switzerland does kinda what you're describing

Swiss Confederation's Army's prmary unit is the Militia Regiment.

And being that the Swiss government issues all gear to their conscripts they loan out STGs, body armor and uniforms

Swiss men can buy their STG after service from the government after the fun switch gets pulled.

Since Switzerland doesn't permit private ownership of an unmodified current-issue service rifle (and has other limitations like registration, storage laws, ammunition limitations, etc), their firearms laws are effectively more restrictive than the US.

The Swiss model doesn't make a lot of sense for the US anyway. The Swiss are issued equipment, including rifle and ammunition, by their government to fight a foreign invader. The US militia on the other hand, is almost certainly to be used against the government, not by the government.

Look into the Finish firearms laws, Forgotten Weapons and InrangeTV did a video on it at Finish Brutality last year

The first war the US fought was the Whiskey Rebellion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiskey_Rebellion
