The 28th Amendment, as drafted, will implement a series of common sense gun laws and implement new revenue streams for Americans. The 12 provisions below will work to make America a more safe place by eliminating the obviously failed experiment that is the second amendment.
1.The second amendment of the Constitution of the United States, being no longer necessary to a secure state is hereby nullified.
2.The production and sale of new firearms, being defined as a rifle, pistol, or other gun, will be disallowed until a time in which the number of firearms in circulation is equal to 50% of the population as determined by the Census.
3.No gun may reside in the same building as anyone who has failed a mental health evaluation, as performed by a medical professional, as approved by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare).
4.A mental health examination, as performed by a medical professional approved by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) must be passed in order to receive a firearms license.
5.An income tax equal to 4% of an individual’s income will be assessed upon all gun owners. In states which were at any point in time a part of the Confederate States of America, this tax shall be equal to 10% of an individual’s income. Taxes levied under this amendment shall be appropriated in equal portions to programs to expand Affirmative Action programs and begin to pay reparations to the descendants of African slaves.
6.Any person making the choice to own a firearm must carry $250,000 worth of liability insurance for each weapon owned. This insurance must be provided by a publicly owned insurance company to be established.
7.All firearms must be retrofitted with both a global positioning transmitter as well as a fingerprint activated locking mechanism. Failure to comply with this provision will result in a fine, prison time, and forfeiture of the privilege of firearm ownership.
8.The National Rifle Association, Michigan Militia, and other “gun rights” groups shall be considered terrorist operations.
9.United States Marshals will be randomly placed at various “sporting venues,” where a firearm could be otherwise legally discharged. This could include publicly or privately owned venues where the following (but not limited to) take place: hunting areas, shooting ranges.
10.In a calendar year, no person may buy more than 100 rounds of ammunition.
11.Assault rifles, semi-automatic, and automatic weapons, as well as those not fitted with GPS and trigger locking devices will be immediately seized by the government. The owner will be compensated fair market value of the weapon, minus the cost of the seizure operation.
12.President Obama will establish a Secretary of Firearm management. This office will have final say over future gun regulation to prevent against rampant innovation that was not forseen by the second amendment.

Gonna’ NEED down jackets in hell....
This guy must be an idiot.
He thinks that an Amendment that penalizes eleven states more than other states has a chance of being ratified?
He must place a lot of stock in Whiteman’s guilt.
“We must pass it to find out what’s in it!”
He must think that gun nuts are not just as smart as people that populate groups like ACORN and would not just change their name to avoid their inclusion in such an Amendment by name. (Okay I am giving members of ACORN too much credit for intelligence just to make my point)
Again the guy is a simpleton.
Satire/hoax of course, but I would have no problem at all with someone promoting this amendment for passage.
The promotion of any amendment at all, including one invalidating the (rest of) Constitution and appointing our Dear Leader as Dictator for Life, is entirely constitutional.
If they can get it passed and ratified.
You may note that our present problems have little (not nothing) to do with poorly judged amendments, and everything to do with ignoring and/or twisting the Constitution’s wording and intent.
It is always the Lincoln Loving Butt boys that have no trouble with the bastardization of the Constitution.
In your case you are on record as saying the 16th and 17th amendments have done no harm? What?
Please work on your reading comprehension.
“little (not nothing)”
Do you seriously contend we’d be in the mess we are if the Constitution (as written) had been scrupulously followed, including the arguably poor choices of the 16th and 17th?
In any case, a true lover of the Constitution must support all amendments, since the provision for amending the Constitution is fully part of the original Constitution.
Or rather, he must support those amendments until he can get them repealed.
FYI, I sent the message below to the Moderator:
I have no idea what your policy is on this issue, but I do get tired of this gentleman’s unprovoked personal insults. It also seems inappropriate for a site dedicated to conservatism, which IMO should include a certain decree of courtesy and decorum.
That wasn’t direct at you personally.
I accept your claim, though it is a little vague.
May I politely suggest that you consider avoiding insulting even groups of people simply because they disagree with you?
Most of those you insult here on a regular basis are happy to stand with you in opposing the ongoing destruction of our society, so why constantly insult them because they sincerely disagree on the interpretation of events that were over almost 150 years ago? How does that help your (presumed) cause today?
The South was drug back into this unholy union at the point of a gun and now subjected to the progressivism that infects all. You wouldn’t understand....
