    the law is different in this case because
    the government, as the sovereign, has the power to take property that is dangerous, diseased, or
    used in criminal activities without compensation. Here, ATF acted properly within the confines
    of the limited federal police power. In nearly all cases, if the government confiscated a gun
    legally possessed by a person not committing a crime, the government would have to pay just
    compensation or return the gun. Importantly, however, guns are protected by the Second
    Amendment of the Constitution, but machineguns are not, as the crime waves of the 1920s and
    1930s convinced Congress that machineguns do not fall within the scope of protections offered
    by the Second Amendment.
