No Pollyanna here, but a Constitutional amendment cannot be revoked with a mere stroke of Obama’s pen. It can only be repealed by the same long, cumbersome & difficult process by which amendments are passed in the first place, by a two thirds majority in Congress, then ratified by three fourths (that’s 38) of the states. As the Founders intended.
A majority of the states have CCW & Republican governors. The only Amendment ever repealed was the 18th (Prohibition) & that was wildly popular when it happened.
If Obama wants to behave like a dictator, he’ll be cutting a lot of Democrats’ throats in the Congress. Think 2014.
Checks & balances. Separation of powers. Tenth Amendment. Things of beauty, all of them.
I understand, but what he is doing is pushing the AWB and trying to classify certain kinds of guns with certain characteristics illegal to own.
They use the term “regulated” as a way to “Refuse” and “Restrict” and “revoke” an Amendment they know they’d never be able to overturn.
It is an end run around it and they’ve been allowed to get away with it forever.
