Saying they know the second amendment is giving undue credit.

Their only interpretation of the 2nd is “the constitution says I get to have an arsenal and nobody can do anything about it.”
If you get a “smart one” they start spouting off supreme court and other rulings that went in their favor, and if faced with the argument that the Founding Fathers could not and would not ever have conceived of millions of guns in private hands with people having arsenals of weapons capable of modern day destruction - and especially if the Founders had been faced with school, workplace, or other random massacres - they would not have so vaguely worded the 2nd Amendment. Then they just say “well the constitution says I can, so eat it.”
They’re perfectly happy to let society pay for their hobby.

Yep I see that a lot in my town. But usually it will say “we the people” and then they will add “have had enough!” I see lot of pledge of allegiance and a few 10 commandments too. It’s also funny because there is someone who lives on my street with political opinions on there truck dick riding Donny then they have “kill all pedos” sticker.
