Correct. This is clearly consistent with the limitations inherent to, say , the right to free speech or the right to assemble. - you do not have the right to assemble a mob in someone's back yard, slander his wife and then incite said mob to burn down the house.My reply was focused on type of arms not on actions with arms.Disagree.
The right to arms inherently does not include a right to commit a crime with a gun.
That sort of thing.
I would say that as a matter of principle that the "right to keep and bear arms" does not include offensive actions like threatening harm or shooting or killing someone without justification. Under those circumstances, laws restricting such illegitimate actions can not be defined as a "restriction on the right" because the right is not implicated.
