They brought a lot of trouble on themselves screwing around with sten guns

Yeh, "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" is so hard to understand and so open to "interpretation.

In a Pigs Eye

Wouldn't the resources be better utilized going after Jihadies who want to kill us all? Nah, they might shoot back.

Nobody here has raised what is to me, these days, among the most difficult of questions in this context: what if these same firearms, owned and stored in the same way and in the same place, were owned by a group of Americans...all of whom were muslims? How many here would react differently, with no other or different facts? Are we sufficiently secure in our convictions concerning the 2nd Amendment that we would defend that group's right to own them as we would our own? I must admit I have trouble with this one.
