Don't pretend to be stupider than you are.
You know it wasn't viewed as unconstitutional until recently and you know that that is a tendentious reading of the amendment.
Should the amendment be repealed? Or at least the rhetoric of repeal resurfaced?
Sure.
I agree.
People hate guns enough now that it is worth saying you want to write a new amendment from scratch.
But the real issue is the Supreme Court.
No law will stand because the court will make up a reason it doesn't want the law to stand.
We saw that last year when Thomas wrote his bullshit opinion that said "it has to be based in history but not if you actually cite historical precedent to do something I don't want done".
So yes, laws is how this will be fought practically.
I do agree that pushing for a new amendment about gun control is a tactic that should be embraced going forward.
They should ban ammunition instead. The 2nd amendment doesn't cover ammunition right?
So they should just ban AR-15, AK-47 and any other rifle caliber bullets in the open market. They should make it so people can buy it only at gun ranges.
They should also ban all sales of loose gun powder, primers, shells etc or at the very least raise taxes on them significantly, so it becomes prohibitively expensive to prevent people self reloading at home.
They should also institute laws on how many rounds of ammunition of what caliber people can buy in the open market. So you cannot buy 1000 rounds in one go.
And they should institute laws that require a person to submit proof of gun use and safety training, write a written test, practical test (just like a driving test), and a psychological evaluation before they are given a license. I mean we do something like that for driving tests anyway.
I dont think any of these will go against the 2nd amendment.
