"The Administration agrees that gun ownership is an individual right, but says it is subject to reasonable restrictions."

Define reasonable.

the Second Amendment, properly construed

1. Felons and convicts are a subset of "the People" and are restricted by many laws that safeguard the citizenry.

2. What is properly construed by "shall not be infringed?"

Exactly. Are they putting America on the road to gun restriction?

Show me where reasonable restriction is in the 2nd Amendment.

Obviously someone doesn’t understand “shall not be infringed” It isn’t difficult like “depends on what the meaning of is is.”

freaking idiots, wanna bet this doesn’t help us retake Congress or hold on to the Whitehouse?

Define reasonable.

Whatever the government thinks is reasonable. Let's hear for circular reasoning!

“Reasonable” was nowhere near what Dense City inflicted upon its citizenry nor was what Guiliani imposed upon New Yankers to be considered “reasonable”.

When imposed restrictions take away the ability for otherwise lawful citizens to acquire the same firepower in arms as the police state, the police state has then exceeded its authority granted it by the governed and the governed then become subjects to the state.

JMO...
