Can someone tell me where in the 2nd amendment it says you can carry machine guns?

I've been convinced of that for some time now.

Being a smartass?

KUSA we are being deadly serious. Your paranoid kneejerk reaction to criticism is the problem. You have been so deeply indoctrinated, like a child of ANY conservative religion, that when someone tells you there is a problem with your attitude you stupidly take it as an "all or nothing" argument on our part, which it is NOT.

You are acting the same about guns as a right wing Muslim does when you criticize the Koran.

NOBODY on the left, that I would consider pragmatic or sane wants to ban every single firearm. Just like while I criticize ALL religions, I am not calling for an all out ban on religion. 

Your utopia attitude about pretend scenarios of what you would do "IF" "this or that" happens "I'd do this", only addresses your intent of what you think or would want to happen. In real life, what you want or think might happen is not the real life outcomes. If you go into gun ownership thinking all it takes to not hurt yourself is "I have no record" you are fooling yourself and the person you are most likely to affect because of that attitude IS YOU.

Mere target shooting is what most non police and non military get as far as training. In real life that is NOT enough to have the ability to remain calm while using a firearm. If you are not willing to take that into consideration, you are a danger to yourself and those you live with and are far more likely to make that one mistake.

WE are NOT one bit calling for a ban on every single firearm. We are addressing your flawed perception. It only takes one mistake with a gun. You have not demonstrated in this thread that you take guns seriously. "I have the right" is not the argument we are making.

Your utopia thinking will get you hurt. Your lack of pragmatism will get you hurt.
