I totally agree - But a typical debate will have gun rights' advocates claiming the Constitution is unambiguous about an individual's "right to bear arms". Logically though, it must be open to some interpretation if we're also saying that a permit is needed and only certain guns, etc. Therefore if, via interpretation, we say permits are acceptable (i.e., we can ban "bearing arms" at certain times and places) then we can't also claim that an outright ban is unconstitutional. Personally I'm for well-regulated gun ownership regardless of what the Constitution says. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:262922 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
