WTF are you talking about? You guys just complain to complain - worse than old ladies talking about the neighbors.

Is there just one reason that the 2nd was created? I don't think so. I am sure there were alterior motives that some people had in mind. Does it matter, not one bit. I am sure there is always for any decision, several factors that come into play. Again the world is not knee jerk simple.

I know if I was a slave master back in those times (hypothetical) I would want to have a gun. Is that the reason the 2nd was created, most likely NO
