From Heller “This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty .... The right to self defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine the right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction.” District of Columbia et al. v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 606 (2008)
Cites from Supreme court Cases:
“The test that we set forth in Heller and apply today requires courts to assess whether modern firearms regulations are consistent with the Second Amendment's text and historical understanding...
In keeping with Heller, we hold that when the Second Amendment's plain text covers an individual's conduct, the Constitution presumptively protects that conduct. To justify its regulation, the government may not simply posit that the regulation promotes an important interest. Rather, the government must demonstrate that the regulation is consistent with this Nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation. New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v. Bruen, No. 20-843, 14 (U.S. Jun. 23, 2022)

Senators Stevens and Taylor's Amendments on SB 1503, one tries to add Liberty, one denies rights!
Senate Bill 1503 originally allowed the carry of long guns by those who can legally possess them like 42 other states do. Senator Stevens added a Federal Court Agreement Order which resulted from a lawsuit where the Tennessee Attorney General admitted that Tennessee had been guilty of Federal Civil Rights violations with respect to those between the ages of 18 and 21 and their ability to carry firearms for the self-protection. Also, Stevens' amendment would have removed the crime of exercising a right to carry firearms. Senator Taylor and the majority of the Senate Judiciary stripped the intent of Stevens Bill.

Senator Paul Rose cherry picking one sentence out of a paragraph to make an invalid point.
During testimony regarding a restorative piece of firearms legislation, the Senator pulls a portion of the Opinion from the New York State Rifle and Pistol Club v. Bruen case to make it appear the ruling supported infringements on the right to arms when the complete wording of the paragraph entails an entirely different meaning.
