All this talk about right and wrong and legal...
See, I believe in the Constitution, I believe what it says is right and legal, but that document is not followed to the letter like it should be unless it benefits those in power.
The Second Amendment is discarded, the SCOTUS won't even hear a case on it at this point. This is bad for free citizens. Now, do I think it is "right" that convicted felons released from prison, or child molesters are free to own a firearm under the 2A? Not personally, but it's legal...well, sort of.
See that's not really how this country works, your 2A rights can be stripped away from you for a variety of reasons; including, of all things, cursing at your wife/GF/SO in some places. We don't have free access to modern military small arms, our 2A rights require we ask permission from the FedGov to exercise them...doesn't sound much like a right. The FedGov uses the Constitution as a basis for the actions it takes only if it suits them...when it comes to something that benefits the free citizen, they turn a blind eye to things such as shall not be infringed and make up all kinds of laws in direct opposition to the Amendment that they cannot abuse to broker or leverage more power for themselves.
Now, Amendment V says private property can be taken for just compensation. But the purchaser defines the guidelines of just compensation, this makes it a buyer's market and thus, how just can it truly be? They decide what they want to pay or what factors should be considered into the price they pay, and that isn't right. But the Constitution says it is, just like it says we should all have access to M14's, M4's, M16's, Sig 550's, full-auto machine guns, .50 rifles with no background checks or mechanisms to permanently forfeit or be stripped of our rights. We should be able to carry a firearm from state to state, concealed or otherwise, and not have to be licensed, pay a fee or submit to a background check. Sound suppressors should be hanging in the display cases at Wal-Mart for $200.00 and not require a tax, a long wait and "permission" from the Gov to own.
The thing is, when it's good for us, the citizen, the government could care less...when it helps them, they jump on the Constitution bandwagon...and that does not bode well for our freedoms, our rights, or the future.
