I’m sorry but isn’t the right famous for attacking potential voters? As for you being a potential voter, it was clear with your question that you wouldn’t be keen to vote for me.

There is a court to decide what can take away a persons freedoms. If that court decides that someone saying they were so tired of the world and wanted to load up and end things was enough to put a red flag on them and not allow the purchase of firearms then that would be common sense. If they decided that, just like vehicles, you had to report any firearm purchase so be it. I’m not talking about taking guns away from responsible owners. I’m talking about keeping them from people who are struggling with mental issues at the time or have history of disturbing acts.

As for the purpose of 2A, it was originally written to protect the right of self defense and oppression. As other amendments from the Bill of Rights have had amendments to correct them, there is nothing in the constitution that says the right to bear arms cannot be clarified.

"I’m sorry but isn’t the right famous for attacking potential voters?" what!? I think crazy is as crazy does and doesn't really have a partisan affiliation... But if we really wanna go down that route I'd be more than happy to stack up the damage and loss of life with your January 6th argument against the Chaz/Chop, BLM "mostly peaceful protests" any day of the week to isolate who tends to be more violent on the political spectrum but I digress...

Now in regards to your central argument that there is a hypothetical court that determines who has a valid stand on retaining or having their 2A rights restricted OUTSIDE of committing and being found guilty of an act like a felony or domestic violence that would preclude them from owning a firearm (something we both probably agree is a good thing for at least a period of time) Can you, and this is an honest question, can you fathom any situation or circumstance where this could be abused or bastardised and result in a law abiding citizen being stripped of their ability to defend themselves until a committee of likely unelected bureaucratic officials deem it safe? Could that system be weaponized?

If you agree so, is that just collateral damage you're willing to accept for the greater good?

if not, do you then hold the position that such a court would be somehow foolproof in ensuring NO ONE EVER lost their 2nd amendment rights unjustly?

This is a tired, old line of bullshit.

Could you, and this is an honest question, possibly fathom any way to be more pedantic and overly prolix?

Ah yes, the ol' "How long has it been since you last beat your wife, and do you think spousal abuse is wrong?"

Your whole schtick is like a big old grab bag of intellectual dishonesty.
