No, because amending the Constitution requires the approval of 2/3 of the states, and that process was part of the original Constitution those states agreed to.
If Hillary simply declares the Second Amendment “null and void” that is a different matter entirely, and would result in court action before secession.
Uh, amending the Constitution requires a 2/3rds majority in Congress and ratification by 3/4ths of the states.
Look at the history of the 21st Amendment, which repealed the 18th (Prohibition). It was a long & difficult process even though the movement to do so was wildly popular.
The Second Amendment will never be repealed. And if the government announces, “Citizens, you can’t have guns anymore. You must forfeit them to the State”, there will be civil war.
Mrs. bill won’t make such declaration until she has that 5th communist on the Court which will then ratify whatever she declares. If she says the 2amd means that only the President may determine who may keep and bear arms that Court will agree. And a 5th Communist will finish turning Roberts and there will be 6 with Kennedy no longer a swing vote, there may well be 7.
Why would it require court action before a secession vote?
Do you agree that the only 'justification' for the North attacking the South was the South attacked Federal forces on Ft Sumner first on 12 April 1861 at 4:30 am?
I find nothing in either The Declaration of independence or the US Constitution that would prohibit secession until after a court battle.
But I would like to hear your rational for court first.
Almost right.
Remember, the Second Amendment is not a grant of power to citizens from the federal government. The unalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness comes from the Creator.
The natural right of man to defend himself trumps even the constitution of the United States - and especially the contemplated bastardized version stripped of the second amendment.
If the federal government ever announces it will no longer ensure second amendment rights, people will have to self-ensure.
The problem, as Voltaire noted: it is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.
If she does this then that will be the time to invoke the Second Amendment and to remove her by force, if needed.
