Breaking News from The Birmingham News: Agents in raids find 130 grenades, 2,500 rounds of ammo
Apparently this group called itself a “free militia”. Oh boy. They also had an IED, a homemade rocket launcher, and a machine gun. They’ve been charged with “conspiracy to make a firearm”, which insinuates that there’s a right to bear arms but not a right to make them. Seems odd.

Imagine that, a raid on right wing extremists.

Thank you for the link! I’ve agonized over this point for years: When does a collection become an armory?
There are some very competent lawyers that post to Mac’s sites. I’d appreciate anyone who could give me a good example of when the right to bear arms comes in conflict with a community’s responsibilty to protect its citizens.
