Bill of Rights
Amendment II
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Amendment XIV
Section 1.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United
States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
It looks to me that congress and the states are making two very big boo boos!
First and foremost, they (being the states and local governments) are totally VIOLATING the second amendment via the 14th amendments, Privileges and Immunities and Due Process clauses.
Second, they are VIOLATING the 14th amendments equal protection clause, by making additional laws that solely target certain minority groups for added protections, leaving out the majority of these additional Privileged Protection Laws! Why is no one suing the federal Government on the merits of the law, they themselves are violating?
