    Valid reasons to take away someone's gun rights:

    • If you're muslim.
    • Had an abortion.
    • Kneeled during the national anthem.

    Am I missing anything?

    You do realize the Supreme Court ruled that escaped slaves had to be returned to their masters and that separate but equal was ok.

    You also cited the acceptable and reasonable limitations, which are not outright bans nor specific types of weapons.

    "There are acceptable and reasonable limitations on the right to bear arms, such as concealed weapons restrictions, licensure requirements, and prohibition of possession by felons."

    Felons is the only prohibition, and that's after due process.

    Ok, that is enough. I have no intention of ever attempting to convince you that I have read the Constitution.
    But I see river appreciated your snark. So I guess you gained something.

    I will leave you with one last thought. The definition of infringed;
    1 Go against, as of rules and laws
    2 Advance beyond the usual limit

    If you believe the Court has the job of doing the above in the name of interpreting, then we certainly disagree. As that would mean we have a worthless document and a worthless process.

    Good day.

    I'm sorry to hear that you believe that the fact of the Constitution allowing the Supreme Court to define the language therein renders the Constitution worthless. I respect the Constitution enough to wholeheartedly disagree with that notion.

    Seems like the military is violating the constitution when it takes someone's gun rights away. And that means we need to get more weapons so we can fight the military for violating the constitution. And yet Trump just increased the military's spending so that must mean he supports the military's taking of citizens gun rights. And Trump is part of the government so that means we even need more guns to remove him along with removing the military.

    We're going to need a lot of guns.

    My post was about Inforwars.

    But I do think the mods here should be armed. We need to stop mass cuckings like what happened yesterday in the forum.

    I am shocked that @MarAzul , @MARIS61 and others who are ardent Trump supporters and extremely opposed to any increase in gun legislation aren’t irate at Trump right now for stabbing them in the back.

    Probably because they know that whenever Trump comes up with the rare wacky “liberal” idea he never follows through in the end.....
