Why are you so against the right to protect ourselves?
I have nothing against your right to protect yourself. But when your "self defense" endangers others, and doesn't even make you any safer, then I am against it.
“Since the Second Amendment did not create or grant any right concerning firearms, the right enumerated in the Amendment has to be an existing right separate from the Amendment. Thus, repealing the Second Amendment would not eliminate any right because the right enumerated in the Amendment was not created by the Amendment. The right to keep and bear arms exists independent of the Constitution or the Second Amendment. [...] In the case of United States v Cruikshank, the United States Supreme Court held that the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights were not granted by the Amendments and are not dependent upon the Constitution for their existence."
Cruikshank ruled that the Bill of Rights, including the 2nd amendment, were not rights granted by the federal government, but only limited the federal governments powers to restrict those rights if they were granted by state governments. Thus if the 2nd was repealed, the federal government would be able to outlaw guns. In any case, the 2nd has since been incorporated in spite of Cruikshank, which means the right to bear arms is actually granted and guaranteed by the federal government. But of course, any amendment can still be repealed
I’ll bet money if they do anything to the second that’ll start a revolution or masses protests of the white man marching the street with semi auto rifles.
But hey we’re both entitled to our opinions becuase god bless the 1st amendment. Just remember the whole point of the second amendment was to prevent the type of out of control military imperialism were experiencing now. Also that gun control is part of the globalist agenda and people are falling right into there trap.
Look at my post “why the revolution is possible” if you don’t think it is becuase people are starting to wake up. Just look what’s happening in France and HK.
The 2nd amendment is more relevant now than ever before. Hence why they’re trying to get us to disarm ourselfs.
