      2nd amendment doesn’t mean everyone should be allowed to own an automatic rifle. There is nuance here, please think.

      I know you said rhetoric, not actual 2A, but I will continue to say this every time I see it, this is not what 2A is for. It’s clearly for militias defending the state against an enemy army. It’s been mutilated into self defence stuff, but there’s nothing even approaching that there.

      However, 9A does protect this right, since it has long been held by the people. Regardless, the reasoning doesn’t matter. People should be armed and train in operation and safe handling/storage/maintenance of their weapon, just in case it’s needed.

          Wow, I didn’t even write much and you lost the thread that quickly. I was agreeing with the premise.
