Would be nice if this could be taken by “conservative” naysayers to a Convention of States, who argue it would lead to removal of the second amendment.
In reality, the 2A is being eroded in every way OTHER than a new amendment by leftists... I have no problem with them TRYING to remove it by Constitutional means, but they don’t. With the former, they’d have no chance.
It's also amazing how many think the solution is to just enforce the Constitution we have.
Believing our Constitution can magically enforce itself and secure our freedoms reflects a naiveté if not ignorance of American history, and the nature of government and man.
The Constitution acts directly on both the people and the states. The people are represented twice, and the states not at all. The 17th has done more damage than the horrible 16th, for the 17th set the stage for democratic tyranny. We can thank the 17th for the New Deal, Great Society, and Obamunism.
