Today, the State of CA claims it can prohibit 'assault weapons'. Do you agree?
A strong argument can be made that, even after the 14th Amendment, the Constitution should not be interepreted to incorporate the 1st Amendment and apply it to the states.
Yep, and using the same arguments, -- "the Constitution should not be interpreted to incorporate the 2nd Amendment and apply it to the states." --
Do you approve, 'CalRepublican'?

Amazingly, Cal did approve, admitting that Ca can prohibit 'assault weapons' in his view.
Do you think the same way 'Hitman'? Is our 2nd amendment infringeable by States like CA?
All of us have provided you with documentation that the second amendment does not, and never has, applied to the states.
In order to put this issue to rest, now it's your turn to provide the rest of us with your documentation that it does. And please omit the flowery quotes from speeches in the past -- quotes and 25 cents will get you a cup of coffee.
I want court rulings, scholarly interpretations, specific references to the second amendment as it applies to the states.
If the very best you can do is some obscure quote by Benjamin Franklin that "the people shall be armed, dagnubbit!", then we'll know that your position is based more on feelings rather than facts.
This is it, tpaine, time to put up or shut up.
