Cruz sorta halfway played one of his cards on Twitter.
...It is of course not the right to a modern-day firearm that is God-give but rather the right to Life & the right to Liberty. Essential to that right to life is the right to DEFEND your life & your family....And, for that reason, the Second Amendment provides “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, SHALL NOT be infringed.” It wasn’t to protect people’s ability to hunt, or to shoot target practice, but to defend their lives, their homes & their families....
Yah, but from whom, Ted? I gave you a hint with the first red-bolded word above....
Please don't limit this exercise to self/family defense, unless you make it crystal-clear that the Framers saw GOVERNMENT as one of the most sinister and powerful potential enemies of "Liberty and Life."
THAT, my friend, is why "assault weapons" are protected by the Second Amendment. It's to counter the "assault weapons" which can and will be used by such as James Comey, Wm. Brennan, Loretta Lynch, Hillary Clinton, et.al.
Just ask the Poles, or the Jews in Warsaw, or the Hong Kong crowds.
Go ahead. Ask.
Here's another Very Smart Dumbass on the question:
I’m a skeptic about many gun-control proposals. But it is not the case that owning an AR-15 is a God-given right.
See above. Kristol, who never saw a war he wouldn't send YOUR children into, is So Smart that he doesn't understand the political reality behind the Second Amendment.
Wait until someone tries to sink his cruise-ship.....
