DHS foiled a terrorist plot targeting #ElectionDay.
Note his plan to purchase "500 rounds of ammunition". I've LONG advocated for a #GunpowderTax raising the cost to around $100/bullet (not unreasonable to if it's to protect your family.)
"500 rounds" would have cost him $50,000... which unlikely would not have been able to afford, and would have raised red flags if he had. #TaxGunpowder #TaxCordite #ThinkOutsideTheBox

"Insurance" would never withstand a #Constitutional challenge. No insurance company would be granted the power to deny you a Constitutional Right.
Like I wrote: You have a right to a weapon. NOT "an endless supply of cheap ammunition".
@Catawu
Regardless of how you believe the 2A to mean something other than what MILLIONS of gun nuts (and the #SCotUS) have defined it as, that IS the generally accepted meaning: "Your right to bear arms shall not be infringed. Period."
Arguing "that's not what they meant" is irrelevant. That's what they've decided it says. 😞
@Catawu
It took the world several thousand years to accept that the world is round and the Earth rotated around the Sun.
I don't think we have that kind of time. 😐
@Catawu
"It doesn’t say what you put in quotes."
It certainly does. I'm not arguing that the INTERPRETATION is right. I'm arguing that as long as 2A absolutists believe it, no law abridging it would withstand a Constitutional challenge.
@Catawu
You STILL don't get that I agree with you.
BUT that is NOT how THIS SCotUS (or ANY SCotUS of the last 200 years) has interpreted the 2A.
If you believe your best bet for immediate change is to challenge T**** Court, more power to you. #FoolsErrand
