re: #86 Aunty Entity Dragon

The constitutional means of getting rid of the 2nd amendment (or most any other part of the bill of rights outsde the 3rd and 4th…which has been gutted already) would be dire enough to start another civil war in my view. I just don’t see the government surviving that kind of thing. Our polity has not been that fractured or combative since the last civil war.

There is no guarentee that America as we know it will survive this century…and I don’t think it woud survive a constitutional amendment process or convention as described in order to get rid of the 2nd amendment, no matter how archaic the language seems today.

The 2nd amendment is fine just as it is. The courts just need to stop ignoring the first four words of it.
