You are confused about this, being a Moon Bat.So machine guns and sawed off shotguns for all...including mental patients.
Great plan
"Shall not be infringed" means that the government can't restrict anyone from owning a firearm. That is the law of the land.
If there are to be a deviation from that then it needs to be for a damn good reason.
In jurisprudence there is a method of applying exceptions to individual Constitutional rights. It is called "Strict Scrutiny". That means that a very strong test must be applied to a law that deprives an American of their individual liberty that is protected in the Constitution.
The problem with gun laws is that the Feds, State and Local government have not applied Strict Scrutiny to gun control laws and that is the reason many of them are so oppressive and bat shit crazy, like magazine bans, banning certain firearms and preventing citizens from even protecting their homes like Dick Heller was prevented from doing.
Hopefully this case from New York that is being considered by the Supreme Court will fix that. What we need is for the Supreme to tell the Fed, States and Locals to knock off all that oppressive shit. If a gun law is passed, like preventing the mentally ill from owning a machine gun, then it will pass the scrutiny of being strictly looked at as to outweigh the harm done to individual Liberty.
Of course you assholes Moon Bats would not like that because your agenda is not public safety but to take firearms away from Conservative White people so you won't have opposition to making this country a Socialist shithole.
