Although I sympathize with Osiris-ODS and his desire to hunt hogs, I don't believe the intention of the 2nd was to give him the right to hunt hogs with an AR15.
I don't believe that unless he has committed a crime and was convicted, that what he hunts with is no one's business but his.
I find that very hard to argue with but if they end up banning AR15's, I won't be worried about my right to bear arms being infringed. If they decide to take my handgun - and your rifles - then I'd worry.
An AR-15 is just a semi automatic rifle like all your others, except it resembles a military rifle COSMETICALLY. They want to ban ALL semi-autos first, then they will ban the rest. Bolt action, lever action, pump, revolvers, etc.
"then they will ban the rest" - there's a huge difference between banning a specific type of gun (semi automatics) and banning ALL guns.
The states where there are strong rest ructions on "assault weapons" also have pretty oppressive laws against other fire arms.
For instance the SAFE Act was passed in New York as "sensible gun control".
Two weeks after it was passed a decorated veteran was arrested for having an empty 30 rd AR magazine in his trunk. No AR, just an empty magazine. No crime, just possession.
A few months later a man went to see his doctor because of mind insomnia. Under the SAFE Act the doctor reported him to the authorities and the jackbooted thugs came to his home and confiscated his guns. For the mental health problem of a little insomnia.
A little later a woman from Texas was passing through NY on the way to Maine. She had her young daughter with her and carried a pistol for self protection. The police arrested her for having the pistol although her only "crime" was possession.
There are other examples. Liberals do not understand what "common sense" means so we can't trust them with our Constitutional rights.
If we give an inch they will take a mile.
