    5 years ago today, 20 kids and 6 educators were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary. My heart goes out to all whose lives were torn apart by gun violence on December 14, 2012, and on every day since. Congress’ failure to act is shameful. We need to pass lifesaving reform now.

        Repealed, no... Updated to relate to todays environment, possibly.

        William is likely a bot, you can tell from all the #'s in their username. But the 2nd amendment only needs to be enforced as written, WELL REGULATED MILITIA.

        Though I agree that each amendment was written for a significant purpose, there is no escaping the facts that the world has changed a great deal in the past 200+ years. We hold the responsibility of adjusting to these changes or we face being destroyed by our inaction.

        You can have four rifles for every person, but unless we get the right to bear man portable anti air launchers, it just takes a small airstrip, some UCAVs, and a roomful of operators in a bunker to suppress any militia.

        I think your thinking what I'm thinking. The time of man vs man has passed. No musket or blade can fend off the militaries of today's world. The militia has transformed into the US military. We should give thanks that 16 and 60 year olds are not forced to the battlefield.

        People without guns have the same rights, they're just choosing not to exercise them.

        Our 21st Century "Day of Infamy". How it wasn't our turning point is beyond me? I can't help but think of the Sandy Hook Mom screaming "SHAME" at the failed Senate vote and it still brings a tear.

        2nd Amendment should never be repealed but with regulation on purchases and the banning of bump stocks, some of our deadliest massacres could have been avoided

        I agree with you, but you will have to explain your former positions on 2nd Amendment rights. Some would call it evolving, others a flip-flop.

        Some would call it continued adjusting and understanding of the challenges we face in a rapidly changing world. Why would we not want a representative willing to adjust their views based on actively an changing world stage? Even a mountain submits to its changing environment.
