The Second Amendment needs to be Modified????
One of the Founding Fathers Gifts was our Constitution which was written in a rigid form with the ability to add Amendments is agreed to by Congress and the States. Since the creation of this country, this rigidity and difficulty in adding amendments has not only kept us from having leaders assume complete control of our lives, but has also prevented fringe groups from changing it using the popular culture of today.
The whole problem today is the Federal Court system was in the hands of liberals so long that they failed to do their constitutional duty, which is to declare a law unconstitutional when it infringes on the Constitution as written.

Amen. The 2nd Amendment _needs_ to be modified about as much as the Star Spangled Banner. Any attempt to amend the 2nd Amendment should be viewed as an assault on the soverignty of the people of the United States and dealt with accordingly.

I mean if the 2nd Amendment was not that important to the founders than wouldn't it have been something like number 9 or 10? But its not, its the 2nd Amendment - right after the guarantee of the right of the people to worship how they please and speak as the wish.

I honestly believe that the movements afoot to modify the 2nd Amendment is so that they can alos modify the 1st Amendment to do away with the right of the people to believe in God.

Be wary of anyone who wishes to Amend the Constitution and its amendments unless it is to expand freedoms.

Exactly, and I don't want to see the Constitution with a bunch of amendments, because that bunch of traitors in DC would take advantage of their ability to modify it when they needed it to their advantage. There is; however, one thing that I would endorse seeing modified, and that's to put term limits on the Justices that have life time appointments. That way when we had Justices in office that were legislating from the bench, we could get rid of them. IF it were changed today, we would be able to get rid of most of those Justices.
