I have had more than 1 liberal say just that to me.
I have too. She said the Constitution was made at a different time when people mostly hunted for food and had to fear Indian raids.
She went on a diatribe about how we need to ban all guns. I told her, I don’t agree. I then said, if you feel that strongly about this, you should get an amendment movement going to repeal the 2nd amendment. Her response was, that will never happen so we just need to keep passing stricter and stricter gun laws.
The simple comeback is that if the Constitution is locked in 1791, then the high speed printing press, television news, and and the Internet is not protected by the 1st Amendment because the founding fathers could never have envisioned them.
