Joy Behar: It’s Time To ‘Tweak’ 1st And 2nd Amendments Because Founding Fathers Didn’t Have AR-15s And Twitter
Daily Wire ^ | 30 Nov 2021 | Virginia Kruta

Posted on 11/30/2021 7:55:23 PM PST by Rummyfan

“The View” co-host Joy Behar said Tuesday that the 1st and 2nd Amendments to the U.S. Constitution needed to be “tweaked a little bit” because the Founding Fathers did not have things like AR-15s and Twitter.

Co-host Whoopi Goldberg began the discussion with the news that Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey had stepped down a day earlier and noted that he had been proactive in policing hate speech — namely because Twitter was first to eject former President Donald Trump from its platform.

“Australia wants to go a step further, drafting a legal process for those feeling they have been defamed, bullied, or harassed, forcing them to hand over the identities of the accused bully to the courts. If we had a legal process like this, would it actually make people think twice about trolling or would people just find a new – a new way to troll?” Goldberg asked, but co-host Sunny Hostin appeared to see the merit of the idea.

“It would be so juicy and good. I mean, think about it,” she said. “Don’t you get those nasty tweets from people with that keyboard courage in their mama’s basement or somewhere else, and they’re hidden behind, like, a cat photo or a private account or a frog photo or a flag photo — in my case, I get a lot of flag photos and they say the nastiest things that they would never say to you face to face. I would love their identifying information.”

The first tweak should be removing her from TV.

The founding fathers also didn’t have National Socialism or Communism.

If they had been able to anticipate these 20th century atrocities, they would have made the first and second amendments even stronger.

and with that Joy, it may be time to tweak why the states adopted a federal government.

Joy Behar is really stupid.

The Constitution is not about guns. It is about human nature and how to create a form of government that can resist the nature of mankind to rule others with an iron fist.

The Bill of Rights is a series of amendments to support the citizens in that effort.

Her statement is as ridiculous as if she said that the Constitution should be tweaked because when they conceived it there were no paved roads and 80,000 lb trucks.

Or coaches will be restricted to no more than four horses.

The press didn’t have TV, radio, or electric printing presses either. Clearly the first amendment only applies to movable type printing presses.

It sounds like she would jump on the convention of states band wagon.

"tweaking" the 1st and 2nd amendments would be on the COS agenda in that order #1 then #2.

Amendments can't be "tweaked" or reworded without first repealing the original.
