Thats why your line of reasoning is absurdist, and not applicable to the actual real life situations. It's simply a means of deflection.

Let me take a break from the tourney to see what Political Talk is up to today...

Yeah that's fair to say. I want Americans that can pass a background check to be able to own the weapons they want to own. There are just some that I'm uncomfortable with because of their destructive power.

You call it deflection, I call it pointing out the flaws in someone else's argument.

That seems reasonable. The question..that I asked was, it seemed your examples ended up being more about magazine capacity than the actual firearm. Is that correct?

The first part of my previous post was meant to answer that.
Yeah that's fair to say.

Do you ever question why the Judicial Branch has so much power, and if that power rightly in their hands?
I have been on thia wagon before Trump even announced.

Why can't I have my private nuke or tank?

Tank brokers—yes, there is such a thing—estimate there are several hundred to 1,000 private tank owners in the U.S.

I called it deflection because of the flaw of your argument of relating the extreme classes of firearms that there are already restrictions on. If you were not referring to those types of firearms, the only other conclusion i could think of was that you were referring to magazine capacities. Thats why I asked if that was you concern.

I agree. I've had a problem of 1 or 2 black robes overturning the votes of the people in issues that affect those people, for years.

Since this thread began I've been researching the matter and tank ownership appears to be legal everywhere.
I honestly had no idea previously.

Yes, but our discussion had nothing to do with additional legislation. It was purely a discussion on the meaning behind the 2nd amendment as it was written.

Congress can check their power with a constitutional amendment. While that isn't easy to do, it is possible.
We can also just start ignoring legislation issued from the bench.

Then your "3 things"..where the line would be drawn in limiting the 2nd, in your opinion, has nothing to do with the clear language of the 2nd?
And, again...seeing that most modern firearms are semi automatics, is your problem with magazine capacity and not the actual firearm?
Posted on 3/17/17 at 3:45 pm to Dale51
The language of the 2nd amendment is anything but clear. I was simply arguing that it doesn't give you a right to purchase everything. But because of it you can't be refused the right to purchase anything.
For the 3rd time now...yes that is fair to say.

So...about that question about your 3 things that would "draw the line" as to where the limit of gun ownership would revolve around if you were to determine it.
It's not the weapon...its the magazine capacity?
