Ok that's fair. It turns out that guns are the leading cause of death for kids in the US. Can we make exceptions to the 2nd admendment?

- mixmastamyk 4y agoImportant to keep in mind that, the Bill of Rights limits the federal government, not individuals. That said, I'd like to see some restrictions/consequences around gun violence in homes, but unsure how that conflicts with 2A; IANAL.
- themitigating 4y agoCan states arrest people for what they say?
- themitigating 4y agoI'm going to let NY know they can ban all guns since the bill of rights doesn't apply to them
- mixmastamyk 4y agoYes, the Constitution limits state govts as well, a slight misstatement written in a hurry. Your obtuse pedantry is not useful. Particularly when it appears you still have missed the main point of the previous statement—that the Constitution limits government, not citizens. Also, these laws restrict children, not adults as you're suggesting. Basically this whole subthread is irrelevant. Good day.
