Repealing the Second Amendment Is Easier than You Think:

() In Tuesday’s New York Times, former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens calls for a repeal of the Second Amendment, calling it a “relic of the 18th century.”

In response, many commentators have focused on what would be involved in repealing the amendment, noting that the formal amendment process is very costly and difficult. Amending the Constitution requires securing two-thirds majorities in both the House and the Senate — and then three-fourths of the states would have to ratify the amendment.

My Commentary: Although Supreme Court judges are duty-bound to uphold the Constitution, they see no issue in using their ultra-minority-based “decisions” to completely modify its original terms.

It’s no coincidence that yesterday’s New York Times article about repealing the Second Amendment was written by a retired Supreme Court judge…

“Jake Flores, @feraljokes
‘I’m starting to think that this is the last season of America and the writers are just going nuts.’ 2/13/16, 3:11 PM”

Jason L.: I’d say ratification of the Constitution, but that’s just me.

Matthew A.: KA-BOOM!

Nickie A.: Give that man a trophy!

Rayn: Indeed, Jason! Since 2003, I always say: “Ever since the institution of the Constitution, revolution’s been the only solution to fight the mind-pollution.”

Matthew A.: Rayn, LOL! (Click Here to Continue Reading This Post) →

"Listen UP TROGLODYTES!!! When your so-called 'founding fathers' gave you the 'right' to 'freely travel,' this is what they had in mind, not these DEATH MACHINES!

BAN CARS NOW!!! - Paid for by Womyn for Ominipotent Government"

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “Vast Majority of American Public Can’t Name Three Branches of Government“…

The Constitution of the United States

Rayn: Only 36 Percent of Americans Can Name the Three Branches of Government:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/govbeat/wp/2014/09/18/only-36-percent-of-americans-can-name-the-three-branches-of-government/

And, yet, here the ignorant majority stand – trying hard to convince me that I should blindly trust the government, just like their sorry asses do! Meanwhile, they haven’t even bothered to understand the American government’s “checks and balances,” which were put in place PRECISELY because the State cannot be trusted with authority! LOL!

Jason R.: This is very sad situation about the American people. More people want to know what’s going on in pop culture in mainstream society instead. Though, there’s also a major issue with the public school system in this country through High School as well.
