Power abhors a vacuum. Since nobody is pushing back against gun control, there will be more of it.
Exactly. We are past the point where even if every Republican was pro-gun (they're not), there simply are not enough of them to make a change. Democrats need to see #2A as their constituency.

How about another for people who don't want to be able to say "no" when asked to quarter some troops ?
Excellent idea. I vote for calling it the “bill of rights.” Name sounds trendy. Hopefully it sticks.
Why would anyone need to waive their right, unless someone is going to compel them to do so?
Just don't utilize it.
That's like you don't need to waive 1A just because you have nothing to say at any given moment.
That would single handedly rescue our country in one fell swoop.Are you a land owner, if not no vote for you.
Not really. It would disbar citizens from their voting rights. Not in favor of that at all. Rights as a citizen shouldn't tied to "owning" land.That would single handedly rescue our country in one fell swoop.
Not sure voting should be a right. Maybe it should be an earned privilege.Not really. It would disbar citizens from their voting rights. Not in favor of that at all. Rights as a citizen shouldn't tied to "owning" land.

I've become quite disillusioned with democracy lately.
