To: RKBA Democrat

This settles it. It’s incredible it had to be done in the first place. The cost of enforcing our Constitutional RTKBA
in this action should have never been necessary. At least now, all those gun grabbers can sit down and shut up.

I found this unsettling: “NEW: Poll finds 67 percent of Americans say Constitution grants right to own gun.”

This means 33% of Americans polled either didn’t know, or believed Americans didn’t have the RTKBA. Who are these people?

The poll is worded wrong. The Bill of Rights in the Constitution does NOT grant any rights, it recognizes them as pre-existing. There is a huge difference. Pollsters are ignorant of this fact, in all likelihood.

I would have been in the "false" category on that poll. As Disambiguator notes, it's not the Constitution that grants rights.
