Capacity =/= banning weapons.
No one anywhere has ever disputed this. I also said that banning certain magazines wouldn't touch the Bill of Rights, because I said doing a lot of things wouldn't touch the Bill of Rights, because there are lots of versions of Constitutional gun control. Anyone whose go-to response to gun control legislation is to shriek about the Second Amendment is wasting your time.
Like I said AR-15s are just a style. Think of it like someone being emo, they dress the part and wear some eyeshadow but they are still human underneath. That is why I said to focus on magazine capacity.
What you said was that people were trying to take something out of the Bill of Rights, that's all I've been talking about. I really have no idea why you're harping on a point on which nobody has disagreed.

Until we are talking about banning guns all together.
And if enough people agree, that will be Constitutional too. That's how this works. Government of the people, by the people, for the people.

We already have regulations on free speech that everyone agrees with; for example, you don't think people should be allowed to shout fire in a crowded theater.
