I just renewed our NRA subscriptions. They are fighting crap like this and could use our help. Afterall they are fighting for US.

[dinodino]

Bet those asshats at the Chicago Tribune wouldn’t like it much if someone proposed repealing the First Amendment...not that repealing it matters, as the Bill of Rights doesn’t confer rights, it merely enumerates them.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Well, gosh ...the Chicago Trbune ..now the definer of our constitutional Rights. I feel so much more secure knowing that this rag of a paper going out of business can not even keep itself afloat in a city that NEEDS a troop surge is telling us What the constitution means. HA!

these editors would have gone the way of Benedict Arnold back in the day...ha.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I’d prefer we repeal that Commie rag some call the Chicago Tribune. Introducing Communism into a country is tough when the populace is armed.

[BobL]

Actually I admire the Tribune for wanting to play by the rules. If they feel that the right to keep and bear arms is obsolete, then, by all means, delete it from the Constitution. Obviously, this will be a difficult process (to say the least), but that is our system and I will certainly support the results, either way.

JUST STOP USING JUDGES TO CIRCUMVENT THE CONSTITUTION!!!

[PubliusMM]

This is absolutely astonishing. While the US Constitution outlines provisions for its amendment, we should tread very lightly on the ground around repeal of ANY rights granted by this timeless document.
The second amendment recognized an individual right; it has always recognized that individual right.
Just because the gun-grabbers want to extend their control to the rest of us, and SCOTUS has hammered them, they want to immediately jump to amending the US Constitution?
Absolutely ridiculous. Scary, too. These people must be stopped.

[Roccus]

Someone should inform the editors that one of the reasons we even have a First Amendment is the Second Amendment.

[Man50D]

That's worth a few more cancelled Trib subscriptions.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

So the Chicago Tribune knows what’s better for Americans than James Madison?

[ken21]

hopefully the chicago tribune and los angeles times will go broke.

[An Old Man]

Hummm. Can you imagine what those people will say when the reality of Heller sets in? I’m going to stay out of town for awhile.

[P-Marlowe]

The Second Amendment does not grant people the right to bear arms, it merely guarantees that the right to bear arms shall not be infringed.

The right to bear arms is an unalienable right. Repealing the second amendement would not change the fact that it is a right belonging to the people that is inviolate.

The right to bear arms is necessary to the security of a free people. Even if there never was a second amendment, it would still be an unalienable right.

[B Knotts]

We need a national boycott of the Tribune, its parent company, and all its holdings. This is anti-American, traitorous tripe.

[TLI]

LINK to treason.

And for everyone here that ever made fun of WND... This summer may see first ice-free North Pole

[BenLurkin]

Without the Second Amendment, the First doesn’t mean squat.

[monkeycard]

Anyone know who owns the chicago tribune?

[Lurker]

not that repealing it matters, as the Bill of Rights doesn’t confer rights, it merely enumerates them.

DING DING DING!!!! No more calls, folks. We have a winner.

Let's repeal the First Amendment. We don't need freedom of speech and the press any more. I'm sure the Chicago Tribune editors will endorse the proposal in the spirit its offered.
