This is rather chilling...

My guess is the very fact hunting weapons have a requirement of how many rounds can legally be loaded in magazines.

Ten being the maximum in the USA.

That caring for the life for non human prey matter more when it comes assault weapons.....

As I have said both teams are culpable. But there is a difference between protest that turns violent and planned violence.

Yes. In many cases demonstrator violence came after police attacked them. And did you ever see the video of the "Umbrella Man" who reportedly started the destruction and violence in St. Louis by methodically breaking the windows of an Autozone store, then leaving? Did not look like a neighborhood resident....

You're only allowed 3 rounds when hunting migratory game birds (ducks, geese, doves) and a flying dove is much harder to hit than a human being.

If abortion is unconstitutional, why is it legal in California?

Two things:
1. An assault weapon is, literally, anything you use as a weapon to assault someone. Frying pans are used effectively in the movie Tangled.
2. The constitution does not grant rights to the citizen. Rather, it calls out what specific "god given" rights the government can not infringe. The right to keep nd bear arms is one of those rights.

Regarding "conceal carry", it may explain why in some states you can open carry without a license, but need a license to conceal carry. Open carry lets everyone know that if they attack you, it could cost them, so they think twice about it. It's one of those, "an armed society is a polite society" things.

My country, Kentucky, just went to conceal carry without a permit. I still got a permit because it allows me to conceal carry in other countries that have reciprocity with Kentucky, like Montana, Indiana, Tennessee, etc. If I did not have a permit, I could not conceal carry in those states. And my wife and I drive all over the country, so it matters. This issue is similar to same sex marriage licenses issued in one country, like California, being valid in all other member countries of the US republic.

You forgot to say 'countries' in the last sentence.

I wonder why that is? Why do we entertain the discussion on gun ownership anyway? The group that says owning any and every gun & rifles they want is their God given U.S. constitutional right will never see things any other way. As long as they can be led to believe buy the NRA fueled Congressional members that any restrictions will lead to all their guns being taken away leaving them helpless against the marauding hoards or the tyrannical government out to get them and take away all their freedums the restrictions will be fought against tooth and nail the will of the people be damned.
Abortion, it may not not unconstitutional but the woman behind the case that led to overturning Roe V. Wade is being warmly welcomed by the Republican Party and is on a mission to make abortion illegal in all 50 states.

Just to be clear, whenever a person reading the constitution sees the phrase, "the people", they need to mentally insert their own name there, because that is actually what it means. "The people", literally means each and every person, individually.

Except when the amendment is a kludged-up compromise with language in it to please two different factions, each of whom figured they would be able to enforce it their way.

Was using the max allowable in hunting according to a search when typing response.

Not a hunter for close to fifty years and could not remember what the law was here. Three or four, could be six due to a pistol season.

Anyway the search stated the max in the USA was for 10 rounds.

Woke up to the fabulous news that I’m a freakin’ four-time EMMY NOMINEE! With our official submission being my “SAY GAY” video, this year’s nomination is perhaps the most meaningful yet. Thank you Television Academy (and Ron DeSantis ) for this honor.

Yeah, but I'm not talking about the ninth amendment.
