My son had a student teacher one day this week to teach his high school Civics class. As for the Second Amendment, the student teacher's comment was (paraphrasing but very close to verbatim), "When the Constitution was written, guns were necessary to fight the British, but in today's society, the Second Amendment is no longer needed." As soon as the student teacher said this, half of the class raised their hands (apparently to challenge this statement), but sadly the teacher was out of time and couldn't take any questions.
My son is an excellent shot and a strong believer in RKBA so he was completely unfazed by this, and the good news is that a good number of friends also felt that this 2A comment was spawned from pure ignorance and political indoctrination. I am not sure what these college students are being taught nowadays, but rest assured that the anti-gun agenda is alive and well in America's universities.
I took my son to the range that night and we fired 100 40S&W rounds to help even the scales. It was a fun way to laugh off this silly crap.
