[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Americans don't want a little control. The majority of them don't want any control. Sure, they sympathize with the victims, but for most Americans, as long as they're not the ones being shot at or killed, they will defend the constitution and sit back feeling that they are safe, and that they have the right to blow someone's head off if they feel the slightest bit threatened. [/quote]

Show me any credible poll showing a majority of Americans are fine with the status quo of mass shootings and don't want any gun control.  Every poll I have ever seen says a solid majority DOES want gun control.  Instead we're being fed fabrications, fictions, fantasies as gun lobby propaganda.[/quote]\

Who cares what you want?

An amendment must be proposed either by a two-thirds majority vote in both houses of Congress or by a convention called for by two-thirds of state legislatures. The proposed amendment then needs to be ratified by three-fourths of the states (38 out of 50) to become part of the Constitution.

Until then, go away.[/quote]

Not really. The President just needs to re-interpret the Second Amendment and have SCOTUS agree. Going forward, a true Constitutional amendment is not required.[/quote]

Good luck with that.  There is already Supreme Court precedent on the subject, and you would need a liberal court majority to do it. [/quote]

Precedent doesn't matter. SCOTUS has shown that they can twist arguments, language, and reasoning to achieve a desired end. Yes, a more liberal SCOTUS will be required, but an amendment is not required. The Second Amendment is not sacred and can be re-interpreted.[/quote]
