Original Note:
The 2nd Amendment has never been found to protect the ownership of assault weapons. Columbia v. Heller recognized that 2nd Amendment protections are not absolute, and the decision has been used by lower courts to uphold assault weapons bans. https://www.halunenlaw.com/the-second-amendment-does-not-protect-assault-weapons/ https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/554/570/
