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.
What no one seems to realize here is the second amendment can be removed from the constitution with only a pen and a cell phone.
Who is going to stop him?
