but for both felons and mentally unstable, you can't argue the 2nd amendment says NO restrictions then say it's ok to limit them.
if you read it literally, it means no restrictions at all.
so either limitations are ok or they are not

by using the views of the supreme court, the right to travel is a constitutional right.
yet to legally operate a vehicle to travel, you must have a license, register the car and have insurance.
surely a double standard

where does it say that? or are you using a court interpretation?
the text reads
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation
i see nothing in that text that says rights can be taken away.
