Hopefully, I'm not broaching a subject that's been beaten to death previously (a quick search failed to turn up a similar thread), but it suddenly occurred to me that, instead of trying to hang onto those [inalienable] Second Amendment rights that haven't already been lost, why isn't there a movement to repeal the NFA, which has been infringing on the Second Amendment since 1934?
Had the colonists, who successfully fought the British army, not personally possessed muskets and cannons--the state-of-the-art weaponry of their day!--we'd still be English subjects today. So, logically, it only follows that the intent of the Second Amendment was to guarantee the American people the right to keep and bear the state-of-the-art in weaponry of today.
