And that was why many Framers argued against a Bill of Rights.

The 21st Amendment to the Constitution sort of made buying liquor pursuant to State Law a Constitutional right. And for better or worse (mostly the latter!) that's how the right to bear arms has been treated (despite the obvious meaning of the Second Amendment).
