What a snide pointless thing to say.
If you say so, but we both know you sing a different tune with it comes to state rights about gay marriage, and immigration.
Sanctuary states for gunz.
I can't wait for the next rebuttal.
My guess is still telling people that 2+2 equals 5.

Awesome, a meme has now been posted.
You could have just stated that you realize you've lost the argument, LOL.
Dude, you're a liberal with Moloch as your avatar. You lost before posting.

I am trusted with knowledge and access to something that is considered vital to our national defense...
But the belief is I cannot be trusted with a burst fire or full auto weapon... because of other peoples actions.
NOT that I think I should own one... didnt think i needed to spell that out.
What you haven't done, in any way, is demonstrate that your RIGHT to BEAR ARMS has been limited, only that you can't buy certain guns that you say you don't really want anyway.

I think you and your guns are safe.
I'm glad you think that.
You have, however, proven my guns are not safe exceedingly well.

Of course your right to property can be taken away ... the "right" is in the holding of the property?
If your property is taken, then your right to hold it has been compromised or taken if you will.
If you're speaking of some philosophical concept, that's all fine and well, but as I said, it's mere idealism.
I don't disagree that any government is authoritarian in it's essence. However, can you suggest a better alternative?
No here has wished for a government monopoly of force
I have read what the Founders wanted and said extensively, and specifically in regard to the Constitution.
Their intent was that the national government would not have a standing army or in reality, any sort of standing force.
Would you also argue to do away with our military except for the Navy?
What do you imagine the well-regulated militia should be doing that it's not doing?

If I can't buy an item then how can I bear that item???
And here's a follow up if you ever decide to answer... Since California limits my firearm purchases, has my ability to bear firearms been limited???
