Commie libs would love to see the entire Bill of Rights “go”.

Yep. And there are two ways to make them "go". One is to outright repeal the Bill of Rights. That's not going to happen anytime soon.

Here's the second way. Have the courts interpret these amendments to have them refer to the rights of the government, and not to individuals. That's where the danger is.

Exactly. That’s the problem with having a “dumbed down” America like we now have. The idiots go to the government to ask them to “interpret” the Bill of Rights for them and tell them what they mean. The Bill of Rights is a contract between the government and the people. It’s the peoples’ job to tell the government what the Bill of Rights mean. If the government continues to violate the Bill of Rights, it’s our job to make the government comply with the Bill of Rights. If it fails to do so, it’s our job to replace that government.

The Supreme Court in the most recent Obamacare decision explicitly said “We don’t care what the law says; we’ll rule it says what we want it to say”.
