ROS sends us a link to The Blaze<\/a> which reports that John Paul Stevens, who is retired from the Supreme Court, has decided that there aren’t enough words in the Second Amendment and he wants to add five more so that the Amendment reads;<\/p>\n

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms when serving in the militia<\/strong> shall not be infringed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, that doesn’t change the intent of the Bill of Rights authors at all, does it? As Andy at Ace of Spades<\/a> writes;<\/p>\n

I’m sure the left is oohing and ahhing over this, but Stevens’ suggestion is pretty funny when you bump it up against the existing U.S. code.<\/p>\n

(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.<\/p>\n

(b) The classes of the militia are\u2014
\n (1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
\n (2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Looks like John Paul Stevens wants to disarm women who aren’t in the National Guard, transgendered folk and oldsters to me. Teh H8R!!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So those retired LEOs running around with their side arms have no right to do that, according to Justice Stephens. Especially if they’re women or over the age of 60 years. it doesn’t look like he thought his editing through. But, I’m sure glad that he’s not on the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
