Do you have any idea how difficult and exhaustive a process it is to repeal an amendment? I do. And I don't see that happening anytime soon.
it has happened in the past....

:laughing: Yeah, and for damn good reason too. Repealing the 2nd A would take a hell of a lot more steam than this country has for that cause right now-a hell of a lot more.it has happened in the past....
Repeal of one of the Articles in the Bill of Rights would be like editing the Ten Commandments.
It ain't gonna happen.
Yeah, and for damn good reason too.
and you don't think the anti movement thinks they have a damn good reason? You don't think they're actively working to get more and more people to agree with their "damn good" reasons?
I don't think the anti's are doing a good job of getting 'more and more' support for their cause.

If you don't mind me asking, why is it you think that?

I suppose they could be doing better - but how much?
It is sad but true, the anti's want you and me to have to depend on the gub'ment for EVERYTHING. They was total and complete control of the populace.
The anti's are louder and louder every year, but when you see the rush on guns and ammo like you have since O's election, it shows how strong gun ownership/values are in this country.
You said it twice yourself, so clearly your read correctly. Yes, Childish.
It IS childish arguing what the words in the 2nd amendment mean, because if they do not mean what is inscribed on our constitution, they would be written using different words.
If gun values were as prevalent as you say, then a majority of Americans would not have voted for a politician who is in favor of a total ban on handguns.
you can go ahead and fashion a new argument, because that one is completely invalid. This country has some 300 million residents, and the popular vote count was some 68 1/2 million to 59 1/2 million. 68 million is NO WHERE NEAR a majority of 300 million people. Sorry, but it just ain't so.then a majority of Americans would not have voted

I don't think the founders though in terms of a living document, I think they thought in terms of truth that transcends time and culture.
