re: Why are guns a right in the Constitution but not affordable housing?

The troll is brain damaged.

This was NOT about attacking the second amendment at all. This was about possibly making another amendment for housing.

Then you should have used a different example.

The Constitution doesn't confer our Second Amendment rights. It shields them from being stripped by the government.

Is there a ban on renting or owning housing by the government that you're keeping a secret from us?

You dont think its weird that gun violence is out of control in America, yet we reserve the rights for crazies (potentially) homeless people to have them. Simply a comparison

No. I'm not in support of taking away someone's Constitutional rights because they're "homeless."

Shelter is neither a good nor a service, but a basic human necessity.

What else falls within this category?

Food, clean water, breathable air, shelter = needs

Okay you can have the tent I lived in for nine months during Desert Storm, sufficient?

Did you pay for that tent or did our taxes? You shouldve donated it maybe, and your gun

Many veterans go homeless after not affording proper medical/mental care. I thought you knew this

Take a homeless person into your home and that will fix their housing problem. You know. Do something other than be a bitch commie on the internet.

I appreciate the guts it took to post this absolutely stupid question, and I do mean that sincerely because I know you'll get roasted for it.

Self defense against tyranny is what our country was literally founded upon. Guns aren't a "right" made by the constitution. 2A specifically removes the governmental jurisdiction of keeping us from them.

Housing costs money and requires others to do your bidding. Firearms do not.

Actually there are so many ways this is a silly question. I hope you do learn from this instead of getting embattled to defending the idea.
