Practical safeguards to the Second Amendment do not threaten its repeal. In fact, reasonable gun control measures would ensure its continuance, since the current out-of-control trajectory could lead to too extreme counterbalancing.
The right to bear arms and self-defense is what long guns and handguns are for. Assault weapons are not the weapon of choice for self-defense or for hunting. Their only uses are for enjoyment and mass murder. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
