Go to the article and check the comments, that writer is just getting clobbered with the almighty clue bat of logic and critical thinking - -the sworn enemy of liberalism, in other words.

how does one wake up in the morning and decide they are high and mighty enough to repeal an amendment to the US constitution?

I will never, and i repeat never give up my guns. i refuse to become part of a society where the government feels they can run rough-shot over me with zero consequences. sorry, but we were given the right to bear arms for protection from criminals, hunting and to be part of the ultimate checks and balances that are government never becomes too powerful.

They’re just afraid a criminal, maybe even one of their preferred repeat offender or early release class, might be killed by a “people”.
Don’t worry Chicago. They can still vote.

My buddy in Maywood (who just reported to SD MCRD, on June 9), told me who shitty gun laws are under Daley’s iron fist.

That Mateba .357 Magnum looks similar to Deckard’s hand gun in the movie Blade Runner.

The Second Amendment is not just a RIGHT, it is also a responsibility. The amendment was put in place by our founding fathers to ensure that the other rights in the Bill of Rights were not repealed.
Our founders had just succeeded from an over bearing form of government that gave the citizens very little freedom or rights if they were not wealthy. Understanding this, our founders were bright enough to understand that even the best form of government can become corrupted; and the only way that the citizenry would be able to take back their country they would have to be armed.
All of the powers of government were given to the individual states. The only things that they states cannot do is violate our God given Constitutional Rights.

To many people are scared of the responsibility of being armed.

“It is easy to say what could I do?” when you hear your neighbors door get kicked in and screams as shots are fired when you have no firearm.

It is hard to do the right thing, grab your equalizer and go across the street to sort out whatever the fuck is going on. These people would not risk it were there own asses on the line, having the courage to put themselves in harms way for there community and neighbors… Not going to happen.

Instead of being called out as the cowards that they are they would seek to deprive everyone of the right to be self-reliant and good neighbors, simply because they dont have it in them. Selfishness of the highest order.

Nearly all of the people I hear discussing this topic agree with the individual right and some are even BHO supporters. Those that are truely against it are coughing up the ‘fact’ that the 2nd Admendment is ‘Widely’ accepted (in who’s fucking circle) as a ‘Collective Right’.

I really don’t know where these so-called HIGHLY Educated individuals get their intel…..let alone where they have the gall to suggest repealing the 2nd Admendment. If they can repeal the 2nd Admendment then why not the 1st Admendment so we don’t have to look at Male on Male bonding, Gay Parades, Artist whom use shit as an expression of art? Hell why not the entire Bill of Rights?

Let them try…..the result will be a Civil War

This is an example of unbridled arrogance that is so common among main stream media pundits. This silly pathetic little reporter seems to think that he is so brilliant to have correctly read the minds and intents of the founders. The founders feared governments that disarmed societies and the citizenry as England attempted to do during colonial times. His complete unwillingness to accept factual history is breathtaking. He in all likelihood is nothing more than a closet socialist who would like to the state supreme power, we should even skip these silly things called elections. Who needs em, the populace is to stupid anyway.

In my life experiences with rare exception reporters are some of the most ill-educated uninformed stupid people around and all the while masquerading as experts of everything.

Thank God for the internet and talk radio.

My pursuit of happiness included taking the wife and kids out shooting yesterday: archery, shotgun, handgun and rifle.

It was a beautiful day, and I know that my daughter and wife will make an intruder’s day short and unpleasant if one attempts to invade my house the next time I’m deployed.

Liberalites can kiss my Army-issued ass.

Clearly stated, any successful attempt to repeal the 2nd Amendment would result in a new civil war. I would be part of it (on the well-armed side I might add)…
