The Constitution doesn't say anything about the right to bear arms being limited to "law abiding citizens". It says "the people". If you're going to talk about what the Constitution "really" means, try not to make stuff up along the way.

"The Constitution doesn't say anything about the right to bear arms being limited to "law abiding citizens".

No, it doesn't. I put that in there, just as did John Adams, when he said "This Constitution is intended solely for a moral (i.e., law abiding!) and religious people, for if a man will not obey God's laws, who can expect him to respect the Laws of Men?

See, the Founders expected a few things from us. To be morally upright. To use our God-given brains. To employ, and apply, common sense.

So while the Constitution doesn't "spell out" "law abiding," it most certainly implies it, or else what good is it to even have a "Constitution" (a list of "laws") in the first place? You simpering chimpanzee!!

I can't believe you're really that cravenly, vilely ignorant. Are you?
