12. "RKBA may be a right but buying a gun isn't."

By the same logic:

Voting may be a right but having access to a ballot or polling place isn't.

Having an attorney present during an interrogation may be a right be being able to contact one isn't.

The freedom of speech may be a right but having that speech actually heard isn't.


No one here supports straw purchases, obviously, but that last line is absolute nonsense.
