Is that it? Any substance associated with the right to bear arms/self defense is guaranteed?

- How bout those associated with religion, aggie? - I religiously drink wine every night with supper. How can a state prohibit wine?

It's in the eye of the people of each state. Someone could hold sacrificing virgins as religious practice, but that does not make it a protected right.

Killing virgins is murder. - And our human rights are protected by our constitution, not as seen "in the eye of the people of each state".
You are simply denying the founding principles of our republic, aggie. -- For shame.

Do you agree that state/local violations of our US Constitution are also unconstitutional?

Of course. However there is nothing unconstitutional when a STATE bans a substance not guaranteed in the BoR. The 18th amendment was only needed for a FEDERAL prohibition. All state prohibitions were still constitutional, even after the 21st repealed the 18th.

What substances are guaranteed in the BOR's? -- Name them. Show me.

Gun powder, for one. I assume the 2nd is under the condition that gun powder also be equally seen as a right as is arms.

Just above [#326], you admitted that any substance associated with the right to bear arms/self defense is guaranteed.
NOW you claim that substances associated with religion are not..

Aggie, give it up. You are totally illogical on this issue.
