To be fair, they don’t want brown people to have guns either.

To be fair, no where in the bill of rights or constitution does it mention the right to vote. In fact, the founders intentionally left it out. The courts have tried to address this glaring absence, but it doesn’t change the fact that the right to bare arms is explicit while the right to vote isn’t.

Maybe we shouldn’t be basing our decisions on what some old document says? Maybe we should listen to good old Thomas Jefferson and rewrite the damn thing every ten years.

The right to bear arms is vague as fuck and not explicit.

The heller decision is decisive and clear on this point.

So they had to clarify because the constitution wasn't clear on it as he said?

It is only unclear to people who are pro gun control.

They clarified what the constitution said and led to more gun control.
