See how they make it so only citizens who have a gun permit in certain states can excersise the 2nd amendment right.
They could legally ban any magazine over 3 rounds, or any gun barrel as those are not legally considered a gun under legal definition. This is how they restrict your rights. They add clauses and rules so only those who can afford the hoop jumping can comply.
Imagine if we recognised how because words and rhetoric can be inflammatory, a state decided that you need a license to excersise your 1st amendment right.
States have limited sovereignity but what they have is required for a federal Republic like ours to work.
