28. There is nothing to rationalize
You are only required to get a permit to assemble and protest under a very limited set of circumstances. Such as using public space to protest.

You are required to get a permit to own some types of firearms and firearm parts. Such as Automatic weapons (machine guns) and sound suppressors.

So both the first and second amendments sometimes require permits to exercise.

Also "well-regulated" does not mean what you think it means, and if you have an issue with that bring it up with the SCOTUS.
