Abortions don't kill people.
He's right. Fetuses aren't people. If they were, abortion clinics would be the site of genocide.

2) Nuclear weapons were an example. Of course I don't think I can have a nuclear weapon in my backyard. However, since the 2nd amendment itself is vague, it would not be unconstitutional to keep and bear arms. Arms being weapons. Nuclear weapons being, you know, weapons.
I suppose the amendment itself is vague. But having such weapons is unlawful, and if you got it to the Supreme Court, they would determine it to also be not protected by the Constitution.

So the second is really just as vague as every other amendment of the Bill of Rights. What constitutes a peaceable assembly? Local law defines it, and if you challenge that, then the Supreme Court will straighten things out.

Then the 2nd amendment doesn't even serve a purpose, if those rights are not granted.

Right?

There are plenty of other first world countries that ban guns and experience lower crime rates per capita than the United States

Right?
They are granted. It just isn't all-encompassing to all arms.

Those countries also don't have such a financial difference between the average poor and the average rich.

Right?
What are you getting at?

Those with a right to legally own a concealed weapon (a license) has the right to keep one in the house.
I don't see how this is hard. You get a permit for a weapon so you keep it.

Those countries also don't have such a financial difference between the average poor and the average rich.
and first world countries with guns that has lower crimates.

Exactly, so maybe its not the fact that we have guns but the ideals and social structure of that nation that determines violence.

I am still in favor of gun control, however.
