So were the parts about freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right
to
a trial and so on. Do you figure all the Bill of Rights is out of date?


let's see.... virtually all free countries guarantee those. no country
has the bizarre non sequitur of gun ownership in its constituion. it's
like the right to wear spats.


You appeared to be saying that the 2nd Amendment should not count because it
was "written 200 years ago"--rather than because other countries don't have
a similar law. If you actually meant to say something else, then perhaps
you shouldn't have written what you did.

The Constitution contains a formula for amending it, so if you don't like
it
as written, start a campaign to get it changed. In the meantime it is the
law, and you don't get to just ignore it the way the Bush administration
figured it could.


just because it's still in the constitution doesnt mean it's not
outdated.


cant grasp the concept, can you?


The Constitution is the supreme law of the nation, it can be changed, but it
cannot be ignored. What part of that concept is escaping you?

BTW, is your Shift key broken?
