Damn, hatesaltrat really just let an opportunity to use a Luke Skywalker meme just fly by.
Anyway lady(?), did you really just use the old tech argument to support an assault weapons ban? Have I been sent back to the 90's?

Well, you used a tired old argument, so I'll use the tired old refutation.
Constitutional Rights are not, and never have been tied to technological advancement.
The logic of your argument falls apart in two ways:
First, by your logic the First Amendment would only apply to speech that could be transmitted in ways available to the Founders. Since the Founders probably didn't anticipate Tumblr, nothing said on this site (or the rest of the Internet) would be protected by your Right to Free Speech. Have fun setting the type for your manifesto on a printing press and try not to mix too much grey soot into your home-made ink. The tech argument either applies to the whole Constitution, or none of it. The Second Amendment doesn't exist in a vacuum.
Second, according to the Founders themselves, the whole point of 2A is to enable the citizenry to defend themselves from a tyrannical government. Thus it follows that those citizens should be armed with commiserate weapons. Yes, even tanks and jets.
Now, please tell me that you're a college student and that you're collecting data points for a research paper, because I don't know why else you keep going like this.
Here's an Example as to why Donald Trump is fascist
Donald Trump wants Concealed Carry Reciprocity.
What is that?
In the United States, it is not automatically legal to carry a firearm in a concealed manner just because one has a firearms license. One needs to obtain a special additional permission to do so. Like most things in the United States, Concealed Carry is decided on a state-by-state basis, meaning a person's permission for Concealed Carry only applies in the state it in which it was issued.
Concealed Carry Reciprocity is the legal concept that a permission for Concealed Carry, issued in any state, applies in all states. So, if a gun owner was permitted to Concealed Carry in Oklahoma, he can currently only do so in Oklahoma. Doing it in any other state is a crime. Under Concealed Carry Reciprocity, it would not be.
What does Donald Trump intend with this?
Donald Trump knows that his most loyal followers live in deep red states, which also have the highest concentrations of gun owners. Due to the high concentrations and due to Republicans being generally against gun control, it is likelier that more gun owners in red states have Concealed Carry permission. Donald Trump wants to allow people to Concealed Carry in any state if they've received permission in one, because he knows that most people who will take advantage of this will be his most loyal followers.
Donald Trump plans to lay the groundwork for his version of Mussolini's Blackshirts and Hitler's Brownshirts, his own paramilitary force of loyal followers who are ready to attack and murder fellow citizens in open daylight for their political positions that oppose their idol. Concealed Carry Reciprocity makes it easier for them to do this.
This is fascism.

You don’t keep your rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness without a gun backing up your beliefs.

Well-regulated is another way of saying background checks and red flag laws.
It's in the Constitution.

America doesn’t simply have a gun problem, it has a problem with gun owners who are just itching for the opportunity to murder. For non-life threatening “crimes” like knocking on doors, accidentally opening the wrong car door, entering the wrong driveway by mistake, and apparently even fishing.
These alleged adults, who are afraid of their own shadow, are desperate to live out their Wild West fantasies. Anything that frightens them, startles them or makes them feel uncomfortable is fair game, as long as they get to tell their stories about how they “bravely” “defended” themselves from an unarmed person in a a non-dangerous situation.
We need to overturn all Stand Your Ground laws and take the Castle doctrine back indoors where it belongs.

btw luigi mangione is probably legitimately the only American to use the second amendment correctly in a very long time.
the whole point of the second amendment is to give us as working-class Americans the right to fight back against corruption and oppressors. in our constitution we are given the right to fight back against an unjust state, but for some strange reason the politicians that are out there crying, "second amendment rights!", every time children are being shot and killed inside of schools are the same people to demonize working-class Americans who choose to use their second amendment rights to fight against tyranny (think luigi mangione, civil rights movement, etc).
so what is it? do politicians actually care about protecting the second amendment, or do they just care about protecting the billionaires and multi-billion dollar industries that line their pockets and continue to kill their constituents?
tldr; free my man luigi, he didn't do anything wrong, he's just exercising his second amendment rights. people who shoot children in schools are NOT exercising their second amendment rights and are just evil.

Kamala is a gestpo lunatic, this video of was in 2019. She admits sending law enforcement to people’s houses to confiscate their guns when she was Attorney General.
