sorry, Mr. Jones, but “shall not be infringed” is the only qualification of the second amendment. suggest you stop trying to fool around with our rights and find something constructive to do instead, like maybe abolishing all of the illegal “gun control laws, regulations, and restrictions” for starters?

Any State Legislature could limit or ban hunting tomorrow without even touching the second amendment.

What a retard.

My fellow Alabamians and fellow concealed carriers and fellow 2nd Amendment supporters, join me in voting for Roy Moore and against this gun-banning Marxist.

Moore on December 12th!

Doug Jones, the Democrat running for Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat, says he loves to hunt but the Second Amendment has “limitations.”

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Where is the limitation?

Even if you grant the moron his assumption, at this point there is obviously to much, so it needs to be rolled back.

Woodshed meet Jones. Jones; woodshed.

Now son, listen carefully because I only want to have to say this one time, gun control is all about hitting your target with accuracy, efficiency, and speed. Got it? Good.

Now let me never hear you speak of this again.

“Any State Legislature could limit or ban hunting tomorrow without even touching the second amendment.

No, quite to the contrary - he knows EXACTLY that this is the case, as do all other high-level gun control advocates. This is nothing new, BTW - in England in the 1600s, no one was allowed to “kill the King’s animals” without a permit, and basically none were given out. As such, no one needed a gun (or so the argument went). The 2nd Amendment was passed and ratified by men who knew of this history very well.

Someone may say to you, “You don’t need a 30-round magazine attached to a semi-automatic rifle to hunt deer.” The perfect response is as follows: “You know, you’re correct about that. On the other hand, the 2nd Amendment wasn’t written because the deer were coming.”

Actually, it does. Would you consider a bazooka “arms”. I would. To my knowledge, you can’t own one as a private citizen. Along with who knows how many other weapons.

The First Amendment has limits too. Yelling “Fire” in a crowded theater and all.

Yes, and so do laws protecting women and minorities.

We can simply ignore them about 40% of the time, since that's okay when it comes to the Second Amendment.

Yes. The founders recognized that standing armies present a clear danger to freedom. If the citizens had access to, and training (”well-regulated” in the lingo of the time) in the use of the weapons in common military use, the citizens could (a) be called upon to defend the nation if invaded, (b) defend themselves from criminals, (c) preserve freedom by having the ability to fight against the govt’s standing army.

Private ownership of cannons and armed ships (”privateers”, who were issued letters of marque and reprisal”) was common at the Founding.

Yes, there are limitations on the 2nd amendment.
It begins with your bodyguards

THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.
Now please explain in CONSTITUTIONAL LANGUAGE, just what those limitations might be.

What a ridiculous load of crap. Of course bazookas are covered under the second amendment.

As to the leftist lie that “ you can’t tell fire in a crowded theatre”; tell me genius, what do you yell when the theater is burning?
