the Rodents want the 2nd Amendment repealed, but they won’t come right and say it.

Actually, quite a few are now saying it. Which is refreshing. Every American has the right to push for changes in the Constitution via the amendment process. As do other Americans to oppose those changes.

It's only when judges ignore the Constitution and write their own policy preferences into it that we get into trouble.

I’m curious as to which `rats are actually proposing repeal of the 2nd, in that that position has proved to be a “third rail” for politicians, like Social Security reform.
They try to nibble away at it through “gun control”, certainly, but even if they would like to see it repealed, I doubt that anyone would be able to supply any cites of politicians, even `rats, saying, “The 2nd Amendment should be repealed,” just as they never say they favor abortion: it’s always they support “a woman’s right to choose”.
Semantics is a weapon or tool, and we shouldn’t cede it to them.
