FreepU John Paul Stevens!! We have not yet begun to fight!!
I have a better idea for amending amendments, how about adding one based on Thomas Jefferson’s quote. Talk about freedom and liberty forever.
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots
and tyrants.”
It has long been my belief that the “militia phrase” in the Second Amendment is not a limitation on who should bear arms but rather a *MANDATE* that all able bodied citizens *MUST* bear arms and be ready to use them in a militia action.
Military style weapons are therefore not something to be banned but rather encouraged.
