    That’s not an own goal, it’s an image that millions upon millions of law-abiding gun-owners will see and rightly react against. Those are cheers for the revocation of a civil liberty that’s essential to our constitutional republic.https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/966500059499069442 …

        I'm fine with making the argument that it's a constitutional right, but calling it essential to our constitutional republic is just absurd.

        How is it essential? How many organized miltias are out there? When that amendment was written, the firing rate was AT BEST 3 rounds per minute.

        David, I greatly respect you, but if you and other 2A advocates do not come up with and implement real solutions, it will be left to non-2A advocates to propose and implement solutions. The status quo is untenable.

        The cheer was for banning “every semi-automatic rifle sold in America.” Not just assault rifles.

        AR-15 ownership is "essential" to our constitutional republic? That seems pretty far-fetched.

        The constitution did not grant the right to found cannons.

        Who needs a semi-automatic rifle. Why would you need such a thing?
