I was at ISC when the TV crew was there. Filmed some shots outside, then came in and filmed inside. Not surprising the whole bias of the story, especially lately.

Glad to see those soccer mom's in favor of supressors. Common sense noise reduction. Now let's get them removed from regulation and available for everyone at the range.

I'd agree that 2A clearly marks out the purpose - a people who are well-practiced in the use of firearms.
We are SO far from that as a national population... Ranges should be protected, and .Gov should be subsidizing them to help maintain a well-practiced citizenry.
A man can dream.

Sent from Proxima Centauri B through the ether using FTP transmission technology, Honey Encryption, and Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwiches That has nothing to do with the second amendment. It is personal property rights. Same reason someone can ban you from their personal place of business or home. Noise ordinances are 100% not a second amendment issue, conflating the things is not helpful to our cause. Even bringing it up in court is a bad idea as it could lead to a poor ruling against the second in the end. There is ZERO counter argument here from a 2nd issue, as it is not impeding your Second Amendment rights. You can shoot your gun elsewhere, if someone chooses not to sell you a firearm is that infringing on your 2nd Amendment rights?

A man can dream. I mean, technically they do with the DNR ranges? Some states take that a step further and have actual maintained places. That said, I would never shoot at one as I prefer the current count of holes in my body as I have now.

Sent from Proxima Centauri B through the ether using FTP transmission technology, Honey Encryption, and Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwiches You can buy land, you can go elsewhere to shoot. It is false to bring this up as a 2A issue. This is a full stop personal property issue, there were established things in the area that people full well knew about. It is on them. and as for strawman? Not at all. If a place of business chooses to NOT sell you a firearm... You can go elsewhere to buy said firearm. If a place is shut down from you shooting... You go someplace else to go shooting. A simile is NOT always a strawman, such as this case.

But root, in this example it would be like the govt saying that you can’t buy a gun at that store anymore, not the store itself saying it.
But as to the main point. A property issue would be a much better play.
