DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA v. HELLERLike most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited....
Anti-gun loons like to repeat this or something similar quite a lot, as if it gives them something to stand on, not understanding the well- and long accepted tenet that all rights have inherent limits and that in the Heller decision, the court merely stated the obvious.
So... what is outside the limits of the right protected by the 2nd amendment?
Why do you think so?
Michael, that is an incredible exaggeration, as you well know.If we put a 14 day waiting period to have an abortion, they would lose their shit. Only the rights they like are unlimited.
None of those are firearms, so fair enough.Weapons grade nerve gas, botulism spores, nuclear warheads, HE bombs. Lot's of stuff are outside the limits.

If you want to restrict it to firearms, then it would depend upon the state. Fully automatic weapons I believe require special permits. I think sawed off shotguns are still prohibited.
Do either of these types of firearms lie outside the inherent limits of the right to keep and bear arms as protected by the 2nd?If you want to restrict it to firearms, then it would depend upon the state.

Are licenses for gun owners and registration for firearms (two sides of the same coin) inherent part of the right to keep and bear arms?I also believe gun licensing and in some cases weapon type bans are enforced at the state level.If you want to restrict it to firearms, then it would depend upon the state.

How is the registration of a gun an inherent part of the right to keep and bear arms?If you think felons shouldn't own guns then yeah.Are licenses for gun owners and registration for firearms (two sides of the same coin) inherent part of the right to keep and bear arms?I also believe gun licensing and in some cases weapon type bans are enforced at the state level.If you want to restrict it to firearms, then it would depend upon the state.

Kind of like voting, it's your right, but you still have to register.

That is, how is registration a necessary part of the exercise of the right, where the right cannot be legitimately exercised without it?
Thru due process, like with felons.An individual's 2nd amendment rights can be abridged or removed by law.None of those are firearms, so fair enough.Weapons grade nerve gas, botulism spores, nuclear warheads, HE bombs. Lot's of stuff are outside the limits.
