The Second Amendment protects the right to own a gun. It doesn’t protect the right to own whatever kind of gun you want. #BanAssaultWeapons

No. What even is an “assault weapon” anyways?
Replying to @marwilliamson @ninaturner
I definitely support you on that!
Replying to @marwilliamson
It also contains the phrase a well REGULATED militia. Where are the regulations that the Founders spoke of.
Replying to @marwilliamson
I'd argue the right to bare arms might be better interpreted as just the right to have a weapon. Ban deadly weapons. We have the technology for non-lethal weapons now.
Replying to @marwilliamson
There were no AK47’s then. They can own muskets.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Assault weapons belong in war or on a range, not slung over someone's back at a restaurant. Common sense has to win. #BanAssaultWeaponsNow

What does AR mean?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Agree. If such details are not defined in law people will try to carry around a bazooka or drive around in an M1 tank. As with covid safety compliance many Americans need leadership since self-discipline and common sense is in short supply
Replying to @marwilliamson
Curious, what part of the 2nd amendment clarifies that?
