In reply to the discussion: The Second Amendment Was Never Meant to Protect an Individual’s Right to a Gun [View all]yallerdawg
(16,104 posts)in significant majorities clamors for more common sense gun restrictions, like no fly watch list bans for gun purchasing, background checks for all gun purchases to include gun shows, product liability for gun manufacturers, restrictions on types of guns and clips, types of ammunition, bans on concealed and open carry permitting - just these for starters - what is the simple, uncomplicated argument against this?
"I have a Constitutional right to own and carry guns!" No parsing or semantics.
But if you acknowledge that right doesn't exist in the Second Amendment, that right doesn't exist.
I do have a fundamental right to live, enjoy my responsible freedoms, and pursue my happiness. I do not concede any "right" for you to take that away from me.
