If the 2nd amendment means gun ownership is a right, how is requiring background checks and ID consistent with recent court rulings regarding voting rights? Just yesterday, courts ruled that ID is an infringement on the right to vote and is impermissible. How is it not so when dealing with guns. The radicals have also decided that healthcare is a right, yet your doctor requires photo ID when they deliver care. How is that not infringing on the new "right?"

Apparently, anything that interferes with the left's obsessive propagation of election fraud is to be stopped, while all other rights are to be subjugated to the whims of radical jurists.

Voting is a waste of time to most since nothing will change in most cases. Owning a gun? Well of course the govt should control every aspect of that. NOT! We should also eliminate all IQ tests prior to casing votes. Oh, wait, that’s already in place.

The Constitution says whatever five out of nine Supreme Court Justices say it says.

Currently, five out of nine Justices say that the 2nd Amendment is an individual right. Of the five, Scalia and Kennedy will both turn 80 in 2016. Thomas will turn 70 in 2018. The next President is almost certain to get to replace at least one of these three, probably two, maybe all three.

If Hillary or any other Democrat gets to replace any one of these three, then the 2nd Amendment will be found to protect nothing and gun control will become the law of the land, just like freedom from religion, abortion, sodomy and homosexual marriage were all discovered by the Supreme Court to be constitutional rights.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.
