“Old times gone but not forgotten”...
Slavery was not an Amendment.
Use em or lose em ......smoke em if ya got em .....etc etc ..
“The Supreme Court cannot repeal any part of the Constitution, they can make interpretations, but they cannot repeal any of it. “
You’re obviously new to this.
Let me explain: The US Supreme Court doesn’t strike down clauses in the Constitution, it merely concludes they mean something different.
A revolution.
The constitution is not a guarantor, it is a delineation of our god-given rights.
According to polls, the majority of Hispanics are in favor of gun control. So importing millions more Hispanics wouldn’t have anything to do with an anti-gun agenda, now would it?
I’m sick of people posting their blogs, their vanities, etc. Ever since this campaign started, we’ve had no discussion of anything outside of Trump, and I feel our collective IQ has dropped. Now any FReeper who wants to do anything but lick Trump’s toes or talk about something that has no connection with him is stone out of luck.
That said, repealing an amendment is not easy and was used only once (to repeal Prohibition, an amendment which was in itself a little shaky).
I think we can take a deep breath and forget about this.
as Henry said, after the first one... the rest are free.
Where in the Constitution of the United States does it say that any of the first 10 amendments to the Constitution cannot be further amended or out right repealed.
And your conclusion is sir? Cause the constitution IS dead.
As I have been saying on this forum for over 15 years now....
It is either war or the camps. This next election will fix nothing.
Hope I’m wrong.
To those saying “too long & complicated to repeal”:
Two words: intermediate scrutiny.
A left leaning court can and will practically repeal by simply declaring semiautomatics, and later all guns above muskets, too dangerous for the public welfare. Done.
Festivities ensure, possibly before the Obama leaves office.
Anyone who can read on a fourth grade level or above can easily understand what the Second Amendment says.
I am a law-abiding gun owner, and I do not sit around “downing shots of whiskey”. You are presenting gun owners as the illiterate backwoods thugs the left wants to show us as. If anybody attempts to confiscate my guns, they will find me stone sober and willing to resist by any means necessary.
I didn't say the constitution was, I said the second amendment is the grantor of our rights against a tyrannical government.
The 2nd Amendment is a God Given right, it is what the Framers wanted, the arms to protect them....without those means to do so, we have no rights at all.
Yes....agreed.
The second is the guarantor of all of our other rights. Without it we are no better than serfs.
I doubt it could be repealed, but gutted.....likely.
