I really don't think liberals have any idea what kind of deadly havoc would ensue if SCOTUS was to repeal the 2nd Amendment.

You think 1865 was a bloody year for America?

[Uncle Miltie]

There aren’t enough Secret Service employees to defend a decision like that.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[basil]

Isn’t National Review a libtard publication? Or do I have them mixed up with somebody else?

"You think 1865 was a bloody year for America?"

Not nearly as bloody as 1862, 63, and 64.

Based on Drudge’s comments about a looming SCOTUS ruling on fair use, so isn’t the First Amendment.

Technically, the only way to repeal the 2nd Amendment is to get a new Amendment into the Constitution--that's how they repealed the 18th Amendment in 1933. Given how hard it is to ratify a new Amendment to the Constitution (look at the failure of the Equal Rights Amendment), good luck trying to repeal the 2nd Amendment through the Amendment process.

Perhaps I'm a bit thick this morning, but the last time I looked at the Constitution I didn't see where the Supreme Court had the authority to unilaterally repeal any part of it.

Or is this just National Review trying to be relevant?

The Supreme Court cannot repeal an inalienable Constitutional right.

The moonbats on the court might think they can, but they can’t.

[American in Israel]

I suspect the repeal of that decision is one firing squad away also.

Liberals understand incremental politics. They boil the frog slowly, they would do it case by case over time as they have other issues. They would chip away at it, they know it they cant do it in one sudden repeal, but they know they can do it over time.

Rock n’ hard place time for constitutionalists. Assassination of “those giving the orders” to overturn our founding document will be preemptive self-defense. But most of us do not savor the feeling of evil that comes over us when we are forced to kill.

[Blue Jays]

My feeling is that it would be impossible to enforce.
Even if they managed a handful of "takedowns" people would notice.
It would soon become disastrous for the gungrabbers.

Scalia and Kennedy are both turning 80 next month. Thomas will be in his 70s during the next Presidential term. If Hillary gets to replace any one of them then a far left wing oligarchy of Supreme Court Justices will be dictating every aspect of our lives for the next 30 years.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Hillary: Hey, I’ll Totally Bypass Congress On Gun Control If Necessary

I know we use Townhall a lot, but how reliable are they?

And it will be Revolutionary War 2 all over again.

[Truth29]

Such a decision might be called the Supreme Court Vacancies Act or, if the people would rather watch Dancing With The Stars, the Obama Enabling Act. Which will it be?

[Don Corleone]

They claim its impossible to deport 11 million illegals yet they think they can scoop up 325 million firearms.

[Popman]

And right now there are clearly four Supreme Court justices who are committed to the absurd view that the operative clause of the Second Amendment

"clearly" ?

I follow the SCOTUS court ruling, not as close as I should, but I don't think it's "clear" at all...

That's a pretty big step for SCOTUS to make, stripping an actual amendment from the Bills of Rights, considering they don't want to be the cause of CWII and the death of many government goons and americans...

[Menthops]

This article makes me very pessimistic.

The only thing standing between the right to bear assault weapons and tyranny is the health of the current conservative justices.

The only two Republican candidates capable of beating the Democratic nominee (Donald Trump and Ted Cruz) are getting attacked on a daily basis by the GOPe. And, as we know, there is no way a GOPe Senate (if they are somehow able to keep a majority in 2016) is going to reject a Democratic President’s Supreme Court nominees. In fact, I could easily see a 7-2 liberal majority by 2020.

[Slambat]

“You think 1865 was a bloody year for America?”

You are right. The next civil war will be another world war on
American soil. You’ll have a coalition of limeys from
Canada led by the British and merry ol england invading
from the north, latinoid hispandecos from south America led
by the Mexicans and allied with the Chinese and
Euro/socialist trash from the east.

All ready to carve America up and all with the help of the
liberal left and their spineless accomplices on the republican side.
