Dear Rep Nader. No one gives a rats rear end what you think about guns. Period.

Personal opinions? Everyone has one. All that matters is the US Constitution. That’s the contract that We the People wrote with the federal government, and the amendment process is quite clear.

If Nadler doesn’t like the 2nd Amendment, he simply needs to convince enough Americans to amend or repeal it. It’s as simple as that, and you’d think a party that wants “every vote counted” would want to go about this democratically by following the amendment process. (Of course, we know they don’t really honor the rule of law, but...)

It was written that way so slight political majorities (and I don’t think Nadler even has that) wouldn’t ride roughshod over a minority. In the amendment process, everyone’s vote really is counted, through the representatives we send to Congress and in each of the state houses.
