Well exactly what other amendments to the constitution would you suggest throwing out, that nonsense one about religious freedom ( I have certainly known more than a few who think the US is a one flavor or no flavor only faith based or NON faith
nation) which neither is true.

I know lots of people that want to toss out that pesky freedom of speech. It should not apply to Liberals, or conservatives, or hate peddlers or used car salesmen..

Now does the government have the right to pass laws that regulate freedom, you bet it does but not toss out the constitution. Like it or not it is there. And for those who enjoy their legal rights to own firearms, we are neither bullies or half wits as people here so like to portray . Most are highly educated probably much more than you could know and have probably done one hell of a lot more for society as you or anyone else (as in your bad citizen quote)
