You Clearly Did Not Read It

Democrat candidate for The US Sentate, Doug Jones says, "he's a second amendment guy," BUT, "he loves to hunt but still believes in “smart” gun laws." Because other amendments have limitations on them or something.

Now that we have digital transcripts of The Constitution, we can search for words.

Hunt does not appear even once. Not a single instance of hunt, hunter or hunting.

He's also ignorant that the primary purpose of The Bill of Rights was to LIMIT the power of the Federal Government, as was the Constitution they amended, and not meant as an impediment to the rights of the citizens.

He's right that every right bears the limitations of responsibilities.

Where he's wrong is that putting prior restraint on rights is an effective means of assigning those responsibilities.
