What is it you disagree about? All that you say is true but the 2nd Amendment still says what it says.

Yes it does say what it says. The problem is, judges think there are ‘reasonable’ gun control laws, and that’s a tough nut to crack. ‘Shall not be infringed’ is Greek to them. That’s all I am saying.

The assault weapons ban, local state, and municipal laws and ordinances whack away at gun rights all the time.

We were fortunate IMO, to get the W., D.C. ruling we did last year. States are still trying to do an end run on that though.

The Senate Bill 45 or whatever doesn’t prevent gun ownership. It merely makes folks who own them into public enemy number one, at the beck and call of the BATF or state agencies on a whim.

I doubt the court would object to that at all. Is that what our framers had in mind? Not hardly, but that’s what we face, and I’m not sure the court would step in to block this.

I wish like hell I could be confident that it would.
