For many Second Amendment enthusiasts, the Constitution is the holiest of documents. A measly law barring terrorists from owning guns or students from carrying guns on school campuses is akin to throwing the entire document into a furnace.
...
If Second Amendment enthusiasts want to protect the Constitution, they need to start with the Sixth Amendment. It is far more frayed today than the Second Amendment.
Those whose Sixth Amendment rights are violated are disproportionately poor minorities. The GOP-dominated NRA usually does not see such Americans as a priority. A pity.
Ed.: While nearly all amendments are in sorry shape today, including the Sixth, so too is the Second. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
