"There's no reason for ever to have an AK-47 or AR-15. There's just no reason. You cant give me a reason the populous [sic] needs one," Campbell said.
Simple. Per U.S. v. Miller (1939) the people have a right to keep and bear arms suitable for militia use. Rights aren't justified by 'need', they just ARE. But in case you are so stupid you don't understand the reason the Framers enshrined the people's right to arms in the Bill of Rights, let me clue you in: In the event that the people 'need' to exercise their Declaration of Independence right to alter or abolish a tyrannical government, they 'need' to have arms.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
