The Supreme Court has ruled that the 2nd protects an individual right, subject to reasonable regulation. I have no problem with reasonable regulation, but we aren't going to get it with "ban all guns" as the platform. And since an individual right has been recognized, the proper way to end that right is to repeal the 2nd. How far will we get wanting to repeal one of the Bill of Rights? It will ensure that we only win elections in urban areas and never win the EC.
