Trump on Clinton and the 2nd amendment


They have already twisted the constitution to grant the Fed gun regulation powers through the commerse clause where the constitution is quite clear, gun regulation is NOT an enumerated power.
 
 
 
Trump is a lying SOS, and like all conspiracy theorists, he uses the same BS vague language.

But the rabble are just too ignorant to see how they are being played. They always are...that is why there are con artists.
That's rich coming from a Hillary supporter. :lamo
 
 

the opinion of his that was reversed in McDonald?
 
1. You do realize that the repeal of a Constitutional amendment requires another Constitutional amendment, which takes more than "Congressional votes" to pass, don't you?
2. I try not to argue in hypotheticals.

She doesn't want to go through the bother of repealing it.

She simply wants Heller reversed, so that it becomes meaningless and effectively protects nothing.

She's said this quite a few times.

You can effectively make an amendment worthless by just a court ruling or two. I see no reason to repeal an amendment when all you need is a court that sides with you on what an amendment means.
 
Both Hillary and Obama have a list of guns they want banned and a list of people they don't want to have guns.
 

Yeah, this is absurd. You shouldn't need to tell a major presidential candidate that it's not okay to insinuate --and not really insinuate, more directly request-- that they should shoot his political rival. There's a term for that, it's called being a totalitarian dictator. Normally this is hyperbole, but with Trump, it sadly isn't. This guy is absolutely crazy, and there's no bounds of reason with him.
 

I have read that before and I note that Posner's reputation is a guy who is bright but not consistent and who seems pissed off he never was on the supreme court, but people he thinks are not as smart as he is, are. The people who pretend that the second amendment does not recognize an individual right never are able to tell us why the commerce clause was a valid vehicle to create power that even they have to admit the founders never intended. And I sort of dismiss the article when it has this in it

The preamble implies that the Second Amendment (which creates a right “to keep and bear arms”
 

It would seem that a large degree of idiocy is required to get from "maybe there is something" (they can do) to shooting. How did you do it? Care to explain? Are second amendment people known for shooting anything including politicians?

This looks like propaganda to me by mangling the truth and extending it way out into the realm of pure hyperbole.
