    Well I actually agree with this post.

    However, doesn't the left do the same thing with "white supremacists" and the right?

    implications are irrelevant in this case; the expression covers all.

    Begs the question, why do some people want so badly to take property away from other people without thoes individuals having committed any crime.

    Funny that they are in general the same people that want to use the government to take property from the rich.

    Yup the rights of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed so that they might be available to help provide security of the free state. Such as fighting against the government when they comes to take your arms.

    I certainly don't consider all Republicans to be white supremacists. And I've not read any lefty on this board supporting this idea. Labeling one who has different politics than oneself as part of a radical group is generally a radical themselves.

    Well I suppose that's one way to get the country into a civil war. Is it your belief that if the government repealed 2A that there would be an armed uprising? Would it matter which party is was?

    The comment I made is that I don't believe all Republican supporters are white supremacists. Have you been called white supremacist?

    You certainly have the right to criticize what you choose. And if someone sees your reasonings as being racist, I think they have the right to suggest as much. But that is a looooong way from labeling all on the right as white supremacists.

    The 2nd ammendment is part of the constitution. A document that our elected and law enforcement people are sworn to protect. Any politician who passes such a repeal is in violation of their oath required to hold their position and should be stripped of their postition because they hold it fraudulently.
    Any law officer is constitutionally required to refuse to enforce a repeal of any of the ammendments hsving to do with the rights of the people. Thus if the 2nd was repealed i would expect every policeman, ever sherriff, every member of the fbi and every member of the armed forces to refuse to enforce it it is their constitutional duty .

    It wouldn't matter which party introduced such unconstitutional law.

    How would you feel if we were talking about thr first ammendment?

    Just because it is part of the constitution does not mean that it will not be repealed...the 18th Amendment was repealed - at the time, it was thought that prohibition led to criminality. Anti gun groups are suggesting that an armed population leads to criminality.

    Except the anti gun groups are liars. The science proves them wrong. They know it but they do not care.

    We could solve most problems by putting the US military in charge of the media.

    Well you might solve some problems but would likely create some others.

    No discussion of the point you proposed, then? The repealing of amendments?
    I'm afraid I find it difficult to continue discussions when a group is labeled as 'liars' and accused of not caring.

    Yeah. Without a nearly total lock on national discourse, leftists would have a meltdown.

    So what is the battle plan here for this civil war? Start shooting cops? Shoot soldiers? Shoot liberal people?

    Simple fact, the amount of gun ownership is in no way related to gun related crime. Any organization claiming it is is flat out lying thus making them liars and not a valuable component of the discussion.

    I believe there are all kinds of laws about where and when you can shoot targets, aren't there?

    The entire purpose of the right to bear arms is to form a well regulated militia, not to shoot targets.

    Spread disinformation, lies and divisive demagoguery among poorly educated, paranoid people, encourage them to violence and work to turn them all against each other.

    The truth is they seem to think that there is progressivism and racist corporate types who want to exploit people and kill the environment. Totally binary thinking.

    That's an opinion and a dishonest one at that.

    A repeal of an Amendment is an arduous and CONSTITUTIONAL process.

    Were it to happen you would have no choice but to accept it
