Former Justice Stevens: Change 2nd Amendment to Improve Constitution

[Billybob]

Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens has released a new book focused, in part, on "improving" the Constitution through amending the Second Amendment--by making the rights protected therein applicable only to a militia instead of the citizenry at large.

Stevens' book is titled Six Amendments: How and Why We Should Change the Constitution...(continued)

Some are saying worse than that in the comments section.

I think he should push for that change. Then I think he should let us know how that worked out for him.

 

[Billybob]

Wonder if any of his personal opinions effected any of his decisions?

So...wouldn't that mean he acknowledges that the 2 nd does in fact protect an individual right.

Through clenched teeth and furrowed brow...yes.

I'm always amazed at how people like this try to explain...and self-interpret... what the intentions of the founding fathers were when they wrote the 2A. The Federalist Papers have always seemed to make the intentions of our founding fathers pretty clear to me.

It really is sad that this scumbag was in a position that he was in with these beliefs. This is one of the reasons why our country is in the shape it is in. Too many politicians not upholding the oath they took to honor the constitution. This guy needs his A kicked.
