      “See, the second amendment specifically says you have a right to bear arms, and that means any kind of gun I want to buy should be legal.”

      “However, there is no amendment saying you have a right to wear armor. So being protected isn’t a constitutional right”.

      “Oh? This supressor I want to put on my gun? That should be allowed by the second amendment. Wait, what do you mean there is no constitutional right to gun accessories?!”

      It usually goes something like that. I’d like to point out here that there isn’t a constitutional right to wear pants or eat bacon either.
