Longtime liberal radio host Bill Press wrote an op-ed Thursday calling for the Second Amendment to be outright repealed.
"The only effective way to deal with the Second Amendment is to repeal it — and then replace it with something that makes sense in a civilized society," Press wrote for CNN in an article titled "There’s no way to fix the Second Amendment. Let’s just get rid of it."

Press cited Carol Anderson, an academic who "describes the ‘anti-Blackness’ at the heart of the Second Amendment."
He wrote that "the amendment has nothing to do with self-defense or allowing ownership of any kind of gun."
Press criticized Senator Ted Cruz as a "gun worshipper" for supporting the Second Amendment, which he claimed enabled the Uvalde shooter. "We are a sick nation indeed, if we allow that idiocy to stand," he wrote.
"We are condemned to more and more mass killings until we do the right thing: Stop arguing about the Second Amendment — and just get rid of it."

CWII?
They oughtn’t call for that which they would lose.
OK, fine. Put a bill to that effect into Congress, get it passed by 2/3 of both houses and 3/4 of the states. Easy, see? Or shut the hell up.
There’s a constitutional way to “get rid of it”. Go ahead and try and see how far you get.
“which he claimed enabled the Uvalde shooter. “
I thought it was the felon family from Mexico that enabled the shooter.
Go big CNN. Let’s get rid of ALL the amendments and start over.
Go big CNN. Let’s get rid of ALL the amendments and start over.
It says right here that the rambling of morons will find deaf ears.
A leftist wanting to repeal the Bill Of Rights.
Heck, no problem. It should be a snap to repeal an Bill-Of-Rights amendment.
Unbelievable!
Our founding fathers would have just taken these traitors out and hung them.
Bill still hiding from minorities up there on the Northern California coast?
Sure.
We will also dissolve the press, religion, and whatever else those morons put into the Bill of Rights.
Oh yeah..... Statehood.
I cannot type my response to this ——card.
And anyone else who thinks like this.
Bill Press? That liberal moron is still around?
When I lived in Southern California DECADES ago this loon was on the air, spouting his left-wing crap.
And now he’s at the Communist News Network?
He must be drinking the blood of unicorns to be around for so many decades singing the same communist tune.
The left relies on Dishonest and Deceit to buttress their positions.
There is no honesty in their souls.
There is no acknowledgement that God is in control of their lives, but rather, they HATE God and elevate their own desires as the gods of their lives.
They will not be reasoned with, their hearts are completely darkened, they have walked away completely from God’s Merciful leadings.
This will end in armed conflict. There is no other solution. Because if it does not, then they will be in complete control of your lives, and that is what they desire.
If you want to gun control, you really need to get rid or modify second amendment.
However to modify constitution is a huge huddle.
You need 2/3 supermajorities in both houses of congress and ratification by 3/4 of the states.
This just not going to happened.
So yes, if you really desire gun control and you are honest about it, go ahead and try it!
They obviously know they cannot ever get even close, so they are, dishonestly, trying to dismantle it piecemeal way.
No, they would not have. They would have argued against them to prove them wrong. Try to find even one example of our founding fathers arguing that we should execute anyone with ideas we don't like.
The idea that people with different ideas should be killed is the antithesis of the principles on which this country was founded. It is what repressive, totalitarian states do.
