You're so dense it actually hurts. 17 year old kids firing hundreds of rounds huh? Don't bother searching for the average age of the Revolutionary War soldier when the 2nd was written.
You'll have to point me in the direction of the law written to allow lack of control of criminals that allows a sea of weapons to descend upon you. I'll wait...
Support the 2A as written? What part of it supports a single contention you've laid out here? Have you actually read it? Have you actually read the founding fathers discussion of what it was for? For your review:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed." Not sure where it covers lack of control of criminals, sea of weapons and your hurt feelings.
Typical liberal who creates a straw man and obfuscates. No one said a hammer was as dangerous as an AR15, simply that it killed more people and by your insane interpretation if things they should then be banned, lest we get a sea of hammers through lack of control of criminals. Wonder if the people who died from blunt objects think AR15's or blunt objects are more deadly?
Replace the 2A with another right and watch what happens to it.
"You want your religious freedom in an unapproved house of worship? No problem. Get a higher license rating and have at it. Nothing in the 1A will be violated."
"You want your home to not have troops quartered in it? No problem. Get a higher license rating and have at it. Nothing in the 3A will be violated."
"You want your right to unreasonable searches and seizures? No problem. Get a higher license rating and have at it. Nothing in the 4A will be violated."
"You want your right to not incriminate yourself? No problem. Get a higher license rating and have at it. Nothing in the 5A will be violated."
It's pretty easy to buy an assault weapon if you're a criminal. Any private sale will do. You can sell your gun to anyone you like. No background check required. I'm sure you know this. Happens thousands of times a year. Lack of laws sparky. Just how you prefer it.
I used a 17 year old because it's obvious he got his hands on it through someone else. What difference does it make how old a soldier using single shot muskets 200 years ago has any correlation to a kid shooting up a school with a high capacity assault weapon. Take your time. We will wait. Like we are still waiting for you to explain again how a hammer is as dangerous as an AR-15.
Here let's read the 2A together.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.
Where does it say you can have access to high powered assault rifles? Where does it say Joe Public shouldn't sell to Sam Criminal an Arm?
A tank is an arm. Go try and buy one that has a functioning ARM.
I'm all in favor of citizens taking up arms against a tyrannical government. And our government is more tyrannical than it has been.
So now we get down to without restriction. That is the most controversial part in the way it's written. For you that means everyone should be able to own anything. Yet you already know we have restricted fully automatic weapons. So we take the next step. We restrict assault weapons. Why because people like you try and make a hammer and doctors more dangerous that an assault weapon. Yeah I want to know some dumbass doesn't sell an assault weapon to some other dumbass because they can do so and not give a crap what happens with it.
And I know you will jump to stricter enforcement of existing gun laws. We should. It's become lax. And I will totally agree. And pass more laws so we can insure more people will be killed by hammers instead of assault rifles. I look forward to the day we see a hammer weilding looney take out a school.
I haven't voted liberal in years. But people like you make it tempting. I don't feel pain for you at all. Ashamed yes. Pain no.
