That is an infringment on firearms. There are to no restrictions. Private ciztens bought canons. American citizens are free to manufacture and sell ghost guns.
Right, when they conflict. But there are laws against ghost guns in New York that this person allegedly broke, which is why this is happening.
Just because there are laws against ghost guns doesn’t mean your right to own a gun is being infringed upon. This has been proven.
There’s a difference between “manufacture” and “keep and bear”.

Yeah……no. Sorry, the right to manufacture weapons is not covered in the constitution. The right to keep and bear them, is.
The second amendment is not a blanket free for all when it comes to guns, as much as you may be told by conservative media. It just allows you to own and defend yourself with them.

The Bill of Rights do not mention limits, the Consititutions do not mention limits, there are no limits. People are free to racial slurs, people are free make and sell ghost guns, people are free insult and mock homosexuals.

Sure you can, but you’re not protected to do so and you will face consequences for it.
You can insult and mock whoever you want as long as you’re ready to be accused of a hate crime. It’s your choice in the end. Always was.
This guy in the article chose to make ghost guns even though he lived in a state with laws against that.
The absence of limits in the Bill of Rights is not implied unlimited protection. This has been argued successfully many times over.

Paying close attention to the details of the case will be lost on the people this is meant to engage. “A judge said my rights don’t matter!” Sigh…

Yep it’s all just reactionary. All we can do is point it out.
