Repeal the 2nd Amendment.....

[Originalist]

The repeal of the Second Amendment would not grant the Federal Government any new powers to regulate guns. It would simply mean the States have total control over the issue.

Funny how the courts don't seem to object to the restrictive gun laws many "liberal" areas implement. So if the States completely took over this issue, things would stay pretty much as they are now.

Therefore I say let's repeal the 2nd Amendment before the SCOTUS can interpret it to mean something it doesn't. If it's not in the Constitution, they can't rule on it, right?

Oh wait, marriage was not in the Constitution either, was it?

In a way. It is true that a repeal of the second amendment would not grant the Federal Government any new powers in this issue. But the way the Constitution is ignored now, that probably would not matter.
