“Like most rights, the right secured by the Second Amendment is not unlimited.” — Justice Antonin Scalia, District of Columbia vs Heller, 2008
Freedom of the press does not protect libel. Freedom of speech does not guard child pornography. Freedom of religion does not allow human sacrifice. |

Maybe, maybe not, but the limited power delegated to the government is. The architects' of the Constitution made it very clear: Government was not to exercise any power not delegated to it by the Constitution. Freedom of power to the government is limited. |

Trouble is, the govt. definition of a machinegun is NOT met by the idiot bumpstock which doesn't alter the "one trigger pull= one bullet fired" nature of SEMI automatic. The way this ban is written is dangerous, it establishes precedents that will endanger our rights in the future.
And, as to the title, yes the 2A right includes full auto.
Does ANYONE know what the word "INFRINGE" Means?
BUY A DICTIONARY!!!! |

QUOTES
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)] |
