The Supreme Court has already ruled that citizens have a fundamental right to bear arms in common use that are also suitable as militia weapons. Those are the specific characteristics required by the Supreme Court (U.S. v. Miller, D.C. v. Heller), and all firearms that meet that description are foreclosed from government restrictions.
These are not suggestions. They are the law of the land as to how Second Amendment protection is to be applied.
The attempt to define the 'preferred' violations of constitutional protections as "common sense gun safety laws" is immaterial. Fundamental rights are not subject to majority opinion or plebiscite; they are rights, not privileges, and are sacrosanct.
Get. That. Through. Your. Thick. Skulls. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
