And exactly where does it say that the Federal Government gives you that right? Or does it say that the Federal Government cannot infringe on your rights. But according to the 10th and the 14th amendment, the States can regulate how and when you can do it. The 2nd only applies to the Federals, not the states. The Feds have only gone as far as saying that you can only have the weapon for the defense of your home as long as you adhere to the State and lower government laws. Everything else is up to the State and lower governments laws. Again, the 2nd amendment only applies to the Federal Government just like all the other first 10 amendments. They limit the Federal Government's powers. If you want this changed, rewrite the 2nd amendment to be more clear and to read what you "Think" it means.
Wow, your ignorance of our Constitution is beyond belief. Are you a legal or illegal immigrant? Didn't you cover this in 9th-grade Civics class or do they not teach that any longer?
Why do you think the Supreme Court is always striking down onerous gun laws passed by states and cities?
Yes, cities and states can pass REASONABLE restrictions but they are overseen by the Federal Government.
