Poll: If the 2nd A was constitutionally repealed…….

[Salty]

To the contrary. Repeal would be unconstitutional.

You do recall that the 18th amendment was repealed by the 21st!
and it took the 21st less than 10 months to pass!
Twenty-first Amendment to the United States Constitution - Wikipedia

Now the 18th took one year and 2 months to pass

I do.

 

[Salty]

I do.

So why did you say that it is not constitutional to rescind an an amendment

 

[BasketFinch]

Well, there weren’t any “Jews” at that time. Judah was his great grandson, as I’m sure your already know.

Abraham had Issac, Isaac had Jacob and Jacob had 12 sons by four different women. Jacob wrestled with God at a creek at night and refused to let Him go unless He blessed him. God changed Jacob’s name to Israel (one who strives with God) and his twelve sons became the 12 tribes of Israel, Judah being one of them. When they came into Canaan each tribe received certain lands to settle.

Fast forward a few hundred years or so and the kingdom of Israel is split in two after Solomons reign with the northern ten tribes and the two southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin.

The northern tribes are carried into Assyrian captivity and disappear from history. Benjamin is very small and is essentially absorbed by Judah in the south. And this “Judah” becomes symbolic of the nation of Israel,

The term “Jew” may have been a shortened version of Hebrews or Judah, depending on who you ask.

There, that’s probably much more than you expected.

Peace to you

Sure. Nothing there conflicts with what I posted.

I didn't say it isn't constitutional to rescind an amendment.

I didn't say it isn't constitutional to rescind an amendment.

In post # 74 (on pg 4) you said "To the contrary. Repeal would be unconstitutional."

Not sure what you are saying?

That's right. I said, "To the contrary. Repeal would be unconstitutional."

I didn't say, "it is not constitutional to rescind an an amendment."

I know the words I use.

That makes no sense to me

How does it make no sense?

You claimed I said something I didn't say.

Explain the difference between “repeal” and “rescind”? Is that the issue?

peace to you

Peace to you all

The point is I was speaking about the 2nd amendment. I said repeal not rescind.

Article 5 insures the 2nd amendment is safe from repeal.
The 2nd A., like unto the 1st , are amendments in the Bill of Rights . The BoR's are not privileges conferred by government.

They are delineations of rights that pre-exist Government.
