Re-election of Obama would bring gun owners to a maximum level of vigilance and readiness. Possibly also a 2nd Revolution due to a gun confiscation attempt or to economic crash. The time for delay, for putting up with baloney-slicing our liberty, is over.<br /><br />I see three reasonable courses: 1) vote for Gary Johnson for obvious reasons, 2) vote for Obama to bring the issue to a head, or 3) Don't vote at all, refusing any mandate. I'm taking the third course.

Obviously Dr. Clawson never read the Constitution. Or if he has, he neglected Article 5 describing the amendment process. So I’ll describe it for him. Briefly: Amendments require a TWO THIRDS vote of the Legislators of THREE FOURTHS of the States. 38 States are therefore required for approval. So; from which states are we likely to get 2/3 of the Assembly to vote for repeal the 2nd Amd? Definites = MA, RI, CT, NJ, NY, MD, DL, IL, CA & HI. “Possibles” = OR, & WA. “Wobblers” = WI & MN. So, for sake of argument, I’ll concede all 14, leaving 24 States needed. So how do you propose convincing TWO THIRDS of the Legislators of ANY of the remaining States, ex, ( NV, KS, ID, MO), or any of 24 Very Pro gun / Pro 2nd Amd. states to vote for this proposal? And remember, you need ALL 24. <br /> Dr. Clawson needs to sharpen his reading & math skills. The only way this will happen is in his Delusional Wet Dreams or those of his fellow Gun Phobic Liberals. Once you overcome this obstacle, please let us know. Till then …. LOTSA luck, “doctor”.
