More than half of the bill of rights have been either rendered ineffective or outright negated in various acts (patriot act, NDAA).
Where was your outrage at the patriot act?
Where is your outrage at the NDAA?
Where is your outrage that the first amendment has been repeatedly violated since the 19th century? Why can't I say the word "bomb" in an airport? Why are the "tasteless" police telling me what can and cannot be covered under the first amendment?
I see the 2nd amendment the same way-
Why can't I own nuclear "arms"?
It's all about balance, right? The founders had no way of knowing we would invent bombs capable of killing millions in seconds no more than they could possibly have known we would have guns capable of mowing down crowds in seconds.
Balance.
