You may be interested to know that the 2nd amendment confers no rights on the
citizens of the United States. Neither does the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th 6th, 7th, 8th,
ect. When you read any of those mentioned, please realize that they are not
referring to the citizens. Those amendments specifically refer to the
government. They forbid government from passing laws infringing those rights. To
repeal the 2nd simple means that the pre-existing right to keep and bear arms
still exist. All you're removing is the ability of the government to pass laws
infringing those rights. The rights still predate the constitution but you know
how the government has such a problem playing by the rules.
By the way, which one of the next bill of right amendments are you willing to
drop? Free Speech? Freedom of Religion? Do you realize that all of the bill of
rights is resting on the 2nd? No, you say? Name one other country that had it's
weapons removed from the citizens that survived as a Republic, or even a
Democracy.
