Yes....what I wrote. Did you read what I wrote thru or just go back and select out this one paragraph...which is EXACTLY a point I made in my tweet. It's never that simple - unless the NRA told you it was - not to mention that this is not how SCOTUS decisions actually work.

And for the record, those are literally supreme Court rulings. I don't understand what your getting at?!

That - literally - majority writing & dissenting opinions also enter the law and are available by courts to interpret down the road. SCOTUS did not identify an unconditional 'right' to own as many of any kind of gun as people want no matter the conditions/context in Heller

Did you read my last response to you? And Scalia was wrong - this quote directly contradicts many others by the Founders; the original Authors. And about this there is no doubt. And Scalia was always happy to 'reinterpret' depending on his prevailing Sponsors

No way could our founding fathers imagine the weapons of the future anymore than my grandmother could imagine the Internet of Things 75 years ago!

They couldn’t have imagined you sending a tweet over the internet using a computer device either......which is why I’d like to limit your 1st amendment rights. Cool?

First Amendment rights ARE limited. (Obscenity, Time Place And Manner etc..) Just like every Amendment. We limit when necessary. It's necessary.

Except that the 2nd Amendment is the only one with an explicit prohibition against infringing on

Are ARs commonly owned? Yup. Potentially most popular rifle in the US. Are they used more in defense than crime? Yup. It's among the least used in crime. Does your argument have a leg to stand on? Nope. Is an AR even an assault weapon? Nope.

This kid didn’t even use an AR

But shotguns are super fast

Antigun folks showed their colors super fast, shotguns, being on their acceptable home defense list, like this kids stolen, and registered, pump action 870.

Yeah, they are so disingenuous, when we all know their ultimate goal is the abolition of the second amendment..

Let me guess, if you wear special decoder glasses then you can see the part written in invisible ink that comes after "shall not be infringed" when it says "Just kidding, you can ban, prohibit, and do anything you want when it comes to arms"

The 2a was about keeping your ability to protect your freedoms. If you cant do that, then you really arent free. This is why it is in big caps in constitution. The 2a is our ability to protect our ability to have the rest of our freedoms

The 2nd amendment was about putting down slave rebellions, which was why it begins with “a well regulated militia being necessary.” It was NEVER about resisting tyranny.

Good name for your opinion, and it's only that. You need to change the back of your name to clown, Circus.

This assertion is amply back by the textual record.
