Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 Former Justice John Paul Stevens retired in 2010. Not soon enough! Former Supreme Court Justice wants Second Amendment Repealed Yeesh...!
Tex Jones, SASS 2263 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 He hasn't changed. He was in the minority on the Heller decision. His "simple" fix is not so simple, and he knows it.
Blackwater 53393 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 1D10T!!! He is what happens when we fail to elect sensible officials!!
Tell Sackett SASS 18436 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 He WASN'T elected! He was appointed.
Rye Miles #13621 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 Life appointments for the SCOTUS is a bad idea! Term limits should be set, maybe 10 years??
Dantankerous Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 What does it take to repeal an amendment? 2/3 approval in the House and 2/3 approval in the Senate and 3/4 approval by the all 50 states? Ain't never going to happen in our lifetimes. Certainly shows how out of touch with reality even the Supreme Court Justice can be.

He wasn’t elected, but the IDIOTS who nominated him and approved that nomination WERE elected!! Another example of EXACTLY what I said!!! How we vote and how many of our like minded compatriots vote WILL make a difference!!! How do you suppose those two most recent liberal nitwits, Sotomayor and Kagan got to be Supreme Court justices??
Rye Miles #13621 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 He outta sit on his porch and smoke a cigar and enjoy the rest of his life and LEAVE US THE HECK ALONE!!

Come on now Rye. Now you're talking about changing the Constitution. Isn't that what we are against. The Bill of Rights are part of the Constitution.
J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 The 2nd Amendment grants us nothing-nada, no rights whatsoever. It restricts the Government from interfering with our preexisting right to keep and bear arms. The right precedes the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment. The language of the Amendment supports this as well "the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" My position is and shall always be that no act which infringes upon my right is legal, no matter what laws, or amendments are passed.
