"I thought "the people" were those defined as having the right to vote?"

They are. But that poster thinks they're everyone.

I'm expecting his response to be that a law like that infringes on the right of a six-year-old to keep and bear arms.

A six year old has that Right. Not being of the age of majority, control of said Rights are the purview of the child's parents.

Legal "reasoning" like yours is paternalistic at best, treating us all like children. Or tyrannical at worst, thinking we are all wards of the State.

Sorry... we gave up on that kind of illogic about the same time we gave up the Monarchy...
