The Democrats have been chipping away at the 2nd Amendment for a long time. It is part of the Communist Agenda to disarm citizens.
The Second Amendment: Why is it controversial?
Prohibition and the 1930s
“We can never be free from the menace of promiscuous killings until the possession of firearms
is everywhere restricted to persons of known character…To this end I shall press my bill for
passage through the United States Senate.” – New York Sen. Royal Copeland, 1932
“In the absence of any evidence tending to show that possession or use of a "shotgun having a
barrel of less than eighteen inches in length" at this time has some reasonable relationship to
the preservation or efficiency of a well-regulated militia, we cannot say that the Second
Amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear such an instrument. Certainly, it is not
within judicial notice that this weapon is any part of the ordinary military equipment, or that its
use could contribute to the common defense.” – Justice James McReynolds, United States v.
Miller, 1939
Assassinations in the 1960s
“If guns are to be kept out of the hands of the criminal, out of the hands of the insane, and out
of the hands of the irresponsible, then we must have licensing…The voices that blocked these
safeguards were not the voices of an aroused nation. They were the voices of a powerful lobby,
a gun lobby.” – President Lyndon Johnson, 1968
Supreme Court Cases
“The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with
service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense
within the home.” – Justice Antonin Scalia, District of Columbia v. Heller, 2008
“It is clear that the Framers and ratifiers of the Fourteenth Amendment counted the right to
keep and bear arms among those fundamental rights necessary to our system of ordered liberty
Justice” – Justice Samuel Alito, McDonald v. Chicago, 2010
