What is the purpose of having an AR-15 gun if you can’t fire it anywhere?
If you fire it wildly in an open parking lot this is not freedom of expression or it is ? What do you need it for then if it’s not ?
Where is it freedom of expression ? What if you can’t afford a property big enough to enjoy shooting it? What places can you fire it freely ? If any
I want people to abide by the law while enjoying their 2nd amendment and 1st amendment
But how do you enjoy freedom of expression in a public park if you can’t shoot

There is no purpose. Period.
@ cybermystpage: the AR-15 can be converted to fully automatic using $15 worth of parts. Also, while most gun crimes were not committed with AR-15, it nevertheless is true that most MASS SHOOTINGS -- which are not the majority of gun related crimes -- are committed using AR-15 and similar weapons.

There is NO "freedom of expression" first of all.
Firing a gun isn't about "expression".
Firing ranges exist.
The point of the second amendment was to allow citizens to form a militia (NOT the military!) to protect themselves from government tyranny.
The point of an AR-15 is NOT to shoot it anywhere you want, but to have it in the event that you have it if you need to join a militia to defend yourself.

it isn't about "free of expression" -- your proposed action endangers bystanders. A semi-automatic rifle is about being able to stand off 1/2 squad of soldiers bent on suppressing the people's liberty in favor of some dictatorship

You can fire them at a range or on your land. An AR-15 is not a super-powerful weapon. You can also use it for protection if someone breaks in. This is no different than any rifle that you might own.
No idea why the ledt is so infatuated with AR-15s like they are something special.
