Um, repealing amendments didn't used to work that way if I remember correctly. But hey, they don't care. I liked the supremes better when they sang Baby Love.

Really?! I thought that the first 10 amendments are “cannot be touched”.

Really? I'm thinking more along the lines of the Supreme Court may be just one more vote away from getting themselves repealed.

The Supreme Court doesn’t have the power to change the Constitution.

Repeal by redefinition. It’s the soviet way.

The first amendment will be tested sometime in the near future — religious freedom.

That is when the “clingers” will need the second.

That would be the last decision the court would ever make.

The 2nd amendment is non-repealable.

The founding fathers made it clear the 2nd is a God given right, and therefore non-negotiable. They said they just wanted to be absolutely specific about it, so they listed it in the Bill of Rights.

SCOTUS won’t repeal the second, they will just find a new right in the constitution for people to live in a gun free society except for of course our armed rulers.
/sarcasm too close to reality off

Yep, it will be a “de facto” repeal by re-definition or re-interpretation. It’ll be another Roe v. Wade type decision.
