As a reminder, the Second Amendment isn’t for deer hunting or trap shooting. It exists to protect individuals from their government—and, as I never tire of reminding people, nothing is more dangerous than a government that turns on its people.

"The Democrats have made it plenty clear over the years that they don’t like the Constitution as written. They hate free speech, a free press, religion that is free from government intervention and, most of all, the Second Amendment and its clear recognition of every citizen’s inherent right to bear arms. Unable to change these principles, they opt for imaginary rights (e.g., abortion, same-sex marriage) and dream of packing the Supreme Court to circumvent the intentionally cumbersome amendment process. But they always pay lip service to the Constitution. That is, until Rep. David Cicilline (D. R.I.) spoke openly about his contempt. He is to be praised for his honesty.
"The occasion for Cicilline’s outburst was, of course, debate about the Democrats’ latest effort to use ordinary legislation (as opposed to the amendment process) to curtail Americans’ Second Amendment rights. More specifically, Cicilline was outraged that anybody would think there was a constitutional problem with proposed federal red flag laws." . . .
