The same people who want to ban assault weapons are the same ones who define what is an assault weapon. But their security teams are heavily armed with those same weapons.

The SCOTUS needs to declare that all gun laws are null and void. Also explain that any attempt at introducing a gun law is a violation of the constitution and is punishable with extreme severity.

The muzzle loading musket was the assault weapon of its day, and that was covered by the second. That foolish opinion has no standing.

the USAF green M-16 I carried had a selector switch for either ‘full auto’ or ‘single fire’. It was something, considerring the only rifle I shot before that was a Remington x40 single shot target rifle in.22 long rifle, as part of OtisAFB Junior NRA.

AR-15s are ONLY semi-automatic.Any designer of ‘assault weapons’ would be one huge grabassticlizardzit, were he to design single shot weapons only.

DemocRat AGs, every single one of them. It is no secret that Rats want to restrict your ability to mount an effective counter to those who would round up dissidents and send us to re-education camps.

2A is not about any specific weapon.
It encompasses all weapons and simply orders the government not to interfere with the citizens owning any of them.

They can jam their fake laws and phony “government” where the sun don’t shine.

***Democratic attorneys general***

The same party that in 1857 declared blacks to NOT be citizens because citizens had the right to “Keep and carry arms wherever they went.” -—Dred Scott decision.

(If declared citizens,) “It would give to persons of the negro race, who are recognized as citizens in any one state of the Union, the right to enter every other state, whenever they pleased.... and it would give them full liberty of speech in public and in private upon all subjects upon which its own citizens might meet; to hold public meetings upon political affairs, and to KEEP AND CARRY ARMS wherever they went.”

Nor does it say assault Weapons’ aren’t protected by the second amendment.

Left always using variable gymnastics

Setting aside the Miller decision of 1938(?) that *only* military arms were protected by the Second Amendment, if AWs are “military weapons” then their use by police and all the alphabet agencies on US soil against US citizens violates Posse Comitatus.

By this logic, muskets are the only arms protected by the 2A.

If the government has them, then they’re protected by 2A.

We must act like government is an enemy, because its actions of late show that it is, in fact, an enemy of good people.

Whatever these undefined “assault weapons” are they are most likely “arms” so they’re covered by the second amendment
