I thought the 2nd is part of the original bill of rights and cannot be repealed.
An alteration is an alteration. The courts already have invalidated the Constitution because they don’t base decisions in law anymore.
Faggotry and abortion, for example.
I’m fairly certain that the 2nd could theoretically be repealed. The amendment process in the Constitution makes no distinction between the amendments contained in the Bill of Rights and the subsequent ones. (Practically speaking, though, its repeal will always be a leftist’s wet dream.)
The Bill of Rights are just the first ten amendments, and so they can be repealed or modified, just like any other amendment.
So the 2nd amendment is vulnerable. But for now the anti-2nd folks have nowhere near the support to repeal it.
For what it's worth, I think that's what the anti-2nd folks should be trying to do. Instead of just unconstitutionally chipping away at the 2nd, they should try to get it repealed. That's their right to try. Go to the states, and try to get the 2nd repealed.
And when they get a big fat NO, end of story, leave the 2nd alone. That's the way the system works.
The Second Amendment can be repealed.
Doing so, however, would not mean we do not retain the right to effectively defend ourselves against those more numerous, more powerful and less principled than ourselves.
