Citizens of other countries, who don't have such a weird constitutional attachment to gun ownership, don't have the concept of self-determination?

- LyndsySimon 8y agoI would argue that this is exactly the case. The governments of other countries are generally based on the concept that they decide what their citizens may do. The US federal government is based on the concept that they decide what citizens may not do, and the Bill of Rights is designed to set limits on even that "negative" power. The Second Amendment does not apply to citizens. None of the BoR do; they are restrictions on governmental power.
