Agreed. They are already tracking who we are, where we are at, when we logged in and what we've written. And like a camera, this is captured in perpetuity.

...because a lot of the people who claim to support the Second Amendment are "real big 2A guys, but..." Fudds who are happy to accept infringement if it's something they don't care about.

Why wouldn’t limitations on the Second Amendment be subject to the same analysis as the limitations placed on the First Amendment? Both contain absolute textual prohibitions on infringement of the rights described in them.

I’ve already stated it in this thread. “Congress shall make no law” and “shall not be infringed” are equally restrictive from a textual standpoint on legislation limiting enumerated rights.

OK, so you agree with the OP.

That was easy.

OP doesn’t even make a point that I could agree or disagree with. And to the extent he does, my post on the first page directly addresses that by raising the question that you yet again are dodging.

I’m assuming you once again aren’t going to answer my question? If you’re a textual absolutist in all statutory interpretation, why wouldn’t you just say so?

Sure he does. You just cherry-picked his post to make your Fudd point.

You’ve become one of the worst posters on here the last couple of years.

I didn’t cherry pick anything. I raised the question of why the second amendment is or should be treated differently than the first when both contain textual prohibitions on limiting rights. I’m going to keep asking that question in every “shall not be infringed” thread until someone actually answers it.

It’s bizarre that you won’t simply discuss the issue you clearly care about on a political discussion board.

This means nothing to me coming from someone like you.

You did, and now you're trying to pivot from what I responded to in order to further whatever bullshite point you're trying to make.

I'm not interested, and you're free to frick off.

I'll discuss it. I'm just not discussing it on your terms.

Answering a basic question isn’t “on my terms”. It’s a legitimate question in the context of this conversation.

Im not trying to make a point. I’m asking how you—or anyone else who feels that the second amendment is absolute based on the plain text—would answer the question on how that view extends to the first amendment.

Are you that cynical that you can’t even have an intellectual discussion on that point? Or have you not thought about it?

It would be far easier to just post a thoughtful answer than waste posts on emojis.

Your question was irrelevant to what I posted.

It took me about 30 seconds to convince you to answer it yourself.

That's why I ignored it.

If you want a discussion, read my post and ask a relevant question.

I don’t care about your first post. I just know you’re a strong 2A poster and wanted your answer to my question. Fine, you for whatever reason refuse.

Absolutely nothing I’ve posted answered how you or anyone else would respond to my question.

Which amendment is that right enumerated in?


the 9th and hundreds more fall under the 9th. Obviously its not a car but we do have a right to move unrestricted by the government.

Then don't fricking reply to me. I don't know why you find this so difficult to get...I don't care about whatever conversation you're trying to have. I posted what I posted. We can discuss that, or I'll keep fricking with you when you try to pivot.
