    I’d really prefer we stay hung up on the Constitution. Lotta good stuff in there about not trampling your citizens and such…

      The Constitution isn’t the ultimate authority in the universe it’s just what people 200 years ago thought would make a good country.

      It’s extremely amperable but it has basically nothing to do with her current world. It’s extremely amarable but also utterly ridiculous to apply its principles to the current political system.

        HOW DARE YOU!? The constitution is perfect as it is and should never be amend… No let’s never change it (again)!

      “2A proponents” already don’t give a fuck about the “well-regulated militia” clause in the very amendment they’re supposedly so adamant about.

        Some do, some don’t. Some just interpret the phrase differently. Some would say guns are already one of the most regulated products so they’re already “well-regulated.” Also the Supreme Court ruled in Heller that despite it saying “militia” the phrase really means individual people, meaning individual people have the fundamental right to possess firearms, etc. So, I think most of these people are not disregarding it, they’re interpreting it a different way. It’s the SCOTUS official interpretation, so it’s not like it’s a crackpot idea even if it’s ultimately wrong. I know I disagree with SCOTUS on a ton of stuff.
