Touché. Fortunately ammunition isn’t a right.

I forgot someone else wrote about this:

The idea that ammunition isn't included is laughable. There are a number of court cases that should be decided this year that will shed some more light on this topic

Why would ammunition be a right? Not mentioned at all. I fear you will be disappointed with the results of those court cases.

The right to keep and bear arms is not just about guns. It also includes knives & other implements useful for self defense. In Caetano v Massachusetts, stun guns were deemed to be protected by the 2nd. Claiming that the people can own arms but not the means to make them useful is a 'too clever by half' interpretation.

Another article full of likely. But no decision.

If it's so obvious then, why hasn't any state passed legislation banning ammunition? I don't think it's even been proposed.
