You stole my thunder, and are correct but left some thing out...the Constitution says that we have the right to keep and bear arms...it does not say however, how many or what type of arms...the purpose of which was in the event the “guvmint” needed an attitude adjustment
Ah, and therein lies the answer. We obviously need the use of the same caliber of weapon that our "guvmint" plans to use against us. The Right would otherwise be meaningless...
That's right and my money is riding on the SCOTUS saying that EXACT thing. Laws will be enacted overnight limiting a person to 1 weapon (probably bolt action) of a very small caliber or better yet, a shotgun.
