The only reason that we have a 1st Amendment is because we have a @nd Amendment to back it up. The day that US citizens are no longer have a 2nd Amendment right to keep and maintain their own weapons is the day that all of the other Amendments as well as the Constitution are no longer protected.

The Second Amendment needs to be Modified????
One of the Founding Fathers Gifts was our Constitution which was written in a rigid form with the ability to add Amendments is agreed to by Congress and the States. Since the creation of this country, this rigidity and difficulty in adding amendments has not only kept us from having leaders assume complete control of our lives, but has also prevented fringe groups from changing it using the popular culture of today.
The whole problem today is the Federal Court system was in the hands of liberals so long that they failed to do their constitutional duty, which is to declare a law unconstitutional when it infringes on the Constitution as written.
