I live in a state where the legislature *and* the courts have an unapologetic contempt for the 2nd Amendment.In fact,SCOTUS recently struck down a Massachusetts law restricting these rights by a 9-0 vote.
OTOH,this Arizona court has violated someone's First Amendment rights.
Those amendments are pointed directly and exclusively at the feds and nowhere else.
The Constitution does NOT forbid the people of each state to decide for themselves about these matters. Again, marriage and sodomy are constitutionally state, not federal, issues.
And may I remind you that since the feds have unconstitutionally taken it upon themselves to enforce on the states their own exclusive constitutional prohibitions, they have perpetrated a parade of horribles including forbidding prayer and the Bible in schools, forcing quotas and affirmative action, overturned state anti-abortion laws, forcing the gay agenda in the name of “civil rights”, threatening to snuff out the 2nd amendment and on and on.
The feds are NOT your friend. If you don’t keep the feds chained up tight with the Constitution the feds will destroy you, me, our freedoms, our lives, and America.
