Question for my 2nd amendment friends. If you believe that the second amendment gives you the right to keep and bear arms without governmental infringement, which is the essence of the phrase, what governmental infringements on arms do you believe are Constitutionally acceptable? You cannot get a CCW license in Florida without a class, with a few narrow exceptions. How is that legal. Where in the Constitution does it say bear arms after taking a class? How about bazookas or Sherman tanks? What is the interpretation of the amendment that says limit A, magazine size or AR-16, is an unconstitutional infringement, but limit B on nuclear weapons and ricin and machine guns is not an infringement? Is this all just about where the line should be drawn or do you believe somehow that the framers had specific arms in mind when they wrote that phrase?
