Actually, dumba$$, if "Shall not be infringed" were restored to being the "Supreme Law of the Land", it'd take another Amendment passed by 3/4 of the State legislatures and 2/3's of both Houses of Congress to ratify a repeal of the Second to change it.

Much harder to do than these idiotic incremental laws your scenario allows. It also destroys the equal protection of Laws from State to State.

Still a little fuzzy on the concepts regarding the whole Constitution thingie aren't you?

Or a Ruth Bader Ginsberg style court to obliterate state laws protecting concealed carry in favor of your dream of nationalized gun laws.
