The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution IS Absolute.

But we also have laws governing our behavior.

Right to Free Speech is absolute...but don't yell fire in a theatre...

A corollary would then be; “You can own any armaments you want, but you can’t shoot into a crowd of innocent people.”

You have the RIGHT, but using said Right to deprive others of their equal Right leaves you open to legal repercussions.

Most who use your line of reasoning see it as a way to “end run” what actually is absolute. They are wrong.

Unless there’s actually a fire.
