Almondjoy:

The right to bear arms is not infringed..
you simply have to comply with very simple laws to keep that right.

Lambslave comments:

"-- Sorry, but this is the most nonsensical post I've ever seen. A RIGHT --- can't be taken away by men.

How do you know something is a right?
By definition, if you have to comply with "simple laws" to "keep it" it is not a right, it is a privilege given by the government. --" -76-

Almondjoy rebuts:

Well that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. God also has given us a RIGHT to murder, enslave, molest, among other things.

Joy, anyone who really imagines they have a right to "murder, enslave, molest" etc, is very disturbed. Say it isn't so..

That doesn't mean we should excerise that right.

Murdering , enslaving, or molesting your peers is criminal behavior, Joy. -- Under our Constitution, using due process, laws can be written and enforced that prevent you from behaving that way.

God didn't give us the RIGHT to own weapons... that was a man made creation.

Our inalienable rights to life, liberty, or property are self evident.
Weapons are property; -- and like other forms of property, reasonable regulations can be written concerning their use, but ownership itself cannot be prohibited/infringed.

God didn't send down an AK-47 in Moses hands... he sent down commandments saying Thou shall not kill.

Thou shall not ~murder~. ---- Men are endowed with the ability to make & possess AK-47's.

Well I believe and constitutional law in this country supports me that the RIGHT to bear arms is not infringed by keeping luntanics like you away from certain weapons and I thank God everyday that there is still some common sense left in this country... and when I say some.. I don't mean alot of it.

Dream on that you possess common sense about Constitutional law.

Where are these constitutional 'laws'? -- The ones that support you by saying: "-- the RIGHT to bear arms is not infringed by keeping lunatics like you away from certain weapons --"?
Can you give us a link?

The laws have already been established and supported by the Supreme Court. That's where I find my authority to claim that it's already been established in law.
