Then what are you whining about.
Whining??? That's your opinion, but if true, then no more so than yourself.

No, it shows you have the privilege. Break the law, and see how fast that privilege can be revoked.

I own a firearm myself. I simply see it as a privilege that I earned, just as like a drivers license, not some gawd given right
Driving is a privilege, owning firearms is a right as enumerated in the 2nd Amendment. I didn't write "the right to keep and bear arms.." Madison did in the amendment. But we can go round and round, as we have done before.

No bother, hopefully SCOTUS will sort it out once and for all. Then, we won't need armchair constitutional experts arguing over the meanings of rights and privileges in the Constitution's 2nd amendment.
