"Why do you need an AR15?"

[montana]

Oh, jeez. You said:

Your prefatory statement was wrong. Drillboss was not inferring what he thought my opinion was on the AR15. Noting that your comment was erroneous is hardly side stepping.

I quote Drillboss:

The original question was "Why do you need an AR-15?" The most common answer seems to be "because the Constitution (2nd amendment) gives me the right to defend myself".
I think Stan is correct in saying the 2A doesn't give you that right.

Erroneous you say!

I insinuated nothing.

That is why I asked.

Jefferson's "stipulations" do not have the force of law. The Militia Act of 1903 defines the militia (both organized and unorganized) as being only able-bodied, adult males 18-45, not "all of the people."

If true then why didn't the District of Columbia v. Heller decision limit the age on firearm ownership?

LOL.

"We" don't need to own an AR15. "We" want to own an AR15. Don't conflate the two.

Yes, I guess a person could make an argument for a need or want to own a better firearm for militia duty.
