The 2nd amendment was never about hunting - it's about arming yourself against a tyranical government. You can argue it's naïve, anachronistic, or not worth the cost in murders; but saying it's for hunting is a strawman.
The way I read your tweets was: - I believe in strong gun control - Arguments that AR-15s should be allowed because they're useful for hunting are reasonable. Was I misreading?

I just think “serious hunters don’t use AR-15s” is a bad argument. I think we should drastically restrict MSRs, and, really, all semi-auto firearms.

Ah ok. I guess I would say that "serious hunters use AR-15s" is not much of an argument against a ban.
-
I don’t think it is. But I see a lot of people trying to argue that they don’t, that no hunter really needs an MSR. Which: lots of hunters disagree.

Fair enough.
