Gun rights advocates are fond of accusing gun control advocates of blatant disregard for the Constitution.
This exact claim is not often discussed on the national news, and I think it should be. In fact, I think someone should create a court case that can be brought before the Supreme Court.
The 2nd Amendment begins, “A well-regulated militia...”
Obviously, all these mentally unstable gun owners do not constitute “a well-regulated militia.” The framers were VERY CLEAR that gun ownership, and the TYPE of guns available, must be well-regulated.
This point should be clarified for all time. I do not believe the NRA’s interpretation of it is defensible.
Retired SCOTUS justice John Paul Stevens says the Second Amendment should be repealed.
