For many Second Amendment enthusiasts, the Constitution is the holiest of documents. A measly law barring terrorists from owning guns or students from carrying guns on school campuses is akin to throwing the entire document into a furnace.
...
If Second Amendment enthusiasts want to protect the Constitution, they need to start with the Sixth Amendment. It is far more frayed today than the Second Amendment.
Those whose Sixth Amendment rights are violated are disproportionately poor minorities. The GOP-dominated NRA usually does not see such Americans as a priority. A pity.
Ed.: While nearly all amendments are in sorry shape today, including the Sixth, so too is the Second. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
