(1,648 posts)Since when is the entirety of an Amendment not relevant? When it doesn't support a specific position?
If you do not like the words in that Amendment, then change the Amendment.
I do not care if you want to own a tank and shoot it off, but the moment that violates another, then it is a problem. Personally, I have owned a Mini-14 with Ramline folding stock and 30 round clips... Same round as the AR15. I finally figured out when I was 21 that it served me absolutely no purpose and it was not needed for anything, so I sold it. The reason I had a Mini-14 is because back then, was probably because the assault weapons were not mass marketed and advertised as a glorified hobby to jump on. And it was a lot less expensive. I asked a guy a few years ago what was so fun about shooting an AR15... He said, 'It's fun to blast the hell out something.' My response, 'At some point you have to grow up.' All I got was a bewildered look and silence.
