We are doomed, if that logic is applied to the rest of the bill of rights..
For example, the first amendment...
Say good by to the TV, Radio, and Internet...after all, the 1st Amendment, ONLY apples to what was available in the 17th century...
We will be bringing back quill pens and town criers....
Even if you disagree with the 2nd Amendment, you better be careful what arguments you use against it....Because if your argument is successful...it sets a precedent for the rest of the Bill of Rights..
Like the "needs" argument....
You don't NEED a gun like that to hunt with...
Well, apply the "needs" argument to the REST of the bill of rights, after all, you happily applied it to the 2nd Amendment.......
Downright scary anit it...
The Bill or Rights is like a cinder block wall...Strong, and proud...
Until you start knocking blocks out of it, than it will easily crumble.
