In most states you can buy whatever you want as long as you are not a criminal. i agree the situation is imperfect, but for the most part you can buy all the guns you could ever use, with a few exceptions.Are you free to buy a firearm? Only if Big brother says you can.
You can grow whatever you want with the exception of hemp and pot. There is no real market for hemp anyway, and whether you like it or not, pot is illegal in every state.Are you free to grow what ever crop you want on your farm? Only what Big Brother says you can.
Again, mostly you are free to do so, as long as you do so in a way that does not put others at risk, or devalue their property.Are you free to add a room to your house? Only if Big Brother says you can.
What should happen if you refuse to pay your taxes?Do you own your home? Only if you continue to pay tribute (taxes) to Big Brother.
no state prohibits home schooling.Are you free to educate your own children by teaching them yourself? Only if Big Brother says you can.
Gura did indeed win a small victory in this venue. It is the first victory in this venue ever. If the war you refer to is an unlimited right to keep and bear arms of whatever type you choose where ever you chose, that war was lost before the constitution was even written, much less the 2A. We have been losing small chunks of the RTKBA ever since the civil war. We will have to get them back the same way.The Constitution starts out "WE the people..."
Hasn't been that way for quite a while now and the Heller decision with all it's double talk about reasonable restrictions does nothing to change it.
Gura tried. He won a small victory but the way the decision was written we've lost the war.
