I think all semi automatic weapons should be banned...Go back to the days when your second amendment was written and only allow what weapons were available then....Single shot muskets.
Single shot muskets IS the modern deal semi automatic weapons. Back them, many soldiers still fought with knife.
Just imagine, if the British banned gun in general, there would not be an United States. You probably wouldn't exist. There will be no Internet.

Using your logic the first amendment only applies to quill pens and rudimentary printing presses.

And only white, male property owners got to vote.
And come to think of it, it might be cheaper to just buy a couple of illegal Mexicans to keep up the yard and the house cleaned. Paying them cash every week takes away from my time at the bar.
Oh, next time you want to spread your message of hate I suggest you get out a quill and paper. There was no Internet or even a typewriter.
Confiscation and "mandatory sales to the state". It appears some are going to push all the way. But dear liberals think all those "kooks" and "bloodthirsty redneck gun lovers" are all crazy for clearing the shelves off. Don't blink or you may wake up with the SS on your porch.
"Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that all options, including confiscation and “mandatory sales to the state,” would be on the table next month when the New York State Legislature debates new gun control measures. The comments were specifically aimed at what might happen should stricter rules be imposed on “assault” weapons and high-capacity magazines.
The governor said he plans on proposing a package of gun legislation in his State of the State address on Jan. 9. “There’s a big difference of opinion on these issues,” Gov. Cuomo said today during a radio interview with Albany’s WGDJ-AM."

Yes, the original intent of the amendment has been so bastardized that it's hardly recognizable between the intent and the reality of guns in this country.
Correct, the left has done a horrible job butchering most of the Constitution, not just the 2nd.
From the Court's opinion in DC v Heller: "Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose."
Maybe we should only use what communication options were around back then too and ride horses around and ground the airlines and oil tankers etc. etc. etc.??
Well, heck yeah! You guys like to say the constitution is not a living document, and that you can divine what was in the framers' heads.
Good you need to set the standard and turn off your PC. See ya.
