True. But beyond any "law", under the Constitution there are no restrictions on our right to bear arms. It amazes me how congress and other people who go to law school and study logic can miss that obvious fact.

The founding fathers saw no need for angels-on-the-head-of-a-pin nuance about what our rights are. If anything, a proper reading of the Constitution indicates that infantry weapons are what the founders have in mind when they speak of arms.

Our Second Amendment rights have been so blatantly trampled upon that its doubtful that anything short of a cataclysmic "Restoration" will improve the situation.

“The founding fathers saw no need for angels-on-the-head-of-a-pin nuance about what our rights are.”...........

Amazing how much smarter the founding fathers were versus the wannabe law makers of today who claim to be so “well educated”. Second guessing the intent of the founding fathers is way over the head of today’s losers.
