Why Do Your Second Amendment Rights End At The State Line?

[Madmallard]

You can travel from wherever you live in the United States to wherever you want in the United States, and your freedom of speech still exists, along with your right to peaceably assemble, petition the government, be secure in your person and property, or have a jury trial if you’re arrested. You take your rights with you no matter where you go, with one very big exception. Your Second Amendment rights typically end at the state line where you live. Cross that border, and your right becomes a privilege, or maybe even a crime.

The Massachusetts Appeals Court today upheld a New Hampshire man’s conviction for illegal gun possession, saying that his spending a night camping in the woods south of the border before walking down I-93 on his way to Michigan did not qualify him for the 60-day waiver of our gun-licensing requirements granted to new residents of the state.

Because your allowed to travel with a musket as long as the ball and powder are in separate cars in separate states. Your rights are not infringed if you have a single choice, at least thats what they tell me.

You cannot vote in a State that is not you own either. Absentee ballots do not count.
