Gun rights rally, no violence

That’s literally what happened during the Revolutionary War.

Your threshold for whether a law should be made is based on whether the rule “hurts” someone? Glad you weren’t at the constitutional convention. You would have sided with England.
A law to limit the number purchased in a month or to take them away from those who may imminently use them to kill people don’t meet that threshold.

Two thumbs up for this post.craig11152 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 21, 2020 5:36 amMost all demonstrations/rallys/protests are peaceful until counter protesters decide to make their point at the same time and location in an attempt to disrupt the free speech of those they oppose.
The one exception is far left protests occasionally involve destroying cars and store fronts without any "help" from counter protesters.

The constitution protects people’s right to bear arms from being “infringed.” Infringement is a much lesser threshold than “regulated, “limited,” or “banned.”
Infringement is NOT taking away all guns like you say. It’s any limit on the right to have any kind and as many as you decide.
Your logic would say that infringement on free speech would be “you can’t speak at all.” Rather, limiting any speech is a violation of the first amendment just like limiting any guns is a violation of the second amendment.
Just because you don’t like something or are scared of it doesn’t justify limiting or banning it for others.
