Retired (Republican) Justice Stevens argues for repeal of Second Amendment

no, it doesn't. this is a very common misperception by morons who think that the constitution was written to give the government control over we the people. the constitution was written to restrict the government, not empower them. thus, tv, movies, internet, cell phones, etc. all would be completely out of the governments ability to access.

You are right about misperception by morons. Nothing I said has anything to do with the government controlling the people. But it is (almost) universally agreed that those rights restricting government are not absolute and may be restricted.

If internet, movies, tv are beyond the government's ability to access you are claiming they cannot restrict, for example, pictures of child pornography. You are also willing to allow government to violate your 4th amendment search and seizure protections by seizing your cell phone.

Unless you believe all these rights are absolute (like Justice Black), then government can restrict speech, press, religion, and other rights. If you agree there can be limits, then the argument becomes what those limits are and the Constitution certainly does not specify when the government can restrict these rights. Thus, it is up to court interpretation based on the justices' beliefs about intent.

White men wrote the 2nd it's their thoughts and ideas of how things should be.

Everything is Black and white in this country because the white man made it that way.

But now it's time for minorities to take over and put you old tired ass racist to bed.

Yes it is. They misinterpret the fact that everyone has a right to own a gun.

It's the biggest cause and the biggest problem.

No, no authority says everyone has the right to own a gun. That is why state and federal laws set age, criminal history, mental history, type of gun you can own, and hundreds of other regulations.

Any individuals who argue everybody has a right do not make policy so it is just an opinion.

all of this tells me that you're of the belief that people are not fit to govern themselves and therefore must be governed......but if man cannot govern himself, what makes you think that a separate group of men can govern others????

Just about every person in this County thinks they have a right to own a gun. Not sure where you've been but that's a fact.

The NRA, along with a bunch of racist white men have people thinking that way.

Losing?

I said the 2nd needs to change and that's what's going to happen.

Besides, what part of my post was wrong?

because there are MILLIONS of us that will not surrender any portion of our 2nd Amendment. how you lose is that out of those millions, there are people who are black that believe as we do. so your own racism is going to get some of your own people killed. that is how you are wrong.

Guess the old dumbfuck didnt know The 2nd Amendment was ratified as an inseparable part of the Constitution itself and cannot be repealed without repealing the entire Constitution..

Wrong again, dumbshit. How can anyone be so chronically wrong?

Wait. Rhetorical question. We all know.

You're dumb as a fucking rock.
