Former SCOTUS Justice wants to rewrite 2nd Amendment, among others

Another gun-grabbing elitist speaks out. You know, there's a reason federal judges should have term limits imposed on them...and here's just one example why:

CNSNews: Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, in his new book, recommends six rewrites to the U.S. Constitution. He would restrict gun ownership to militia members; ban the death penalty; and allow government to set "reasonable limits" on campaign financing, among other things.

But Stevens says he's no radical:

"I think every one of my proposals is a moderate proposal," Stevens told ABC's George Stephanopoulos in an interview that aired Sunday on ABC's "This Week."

One of Steven's proposals would add five words to the Second Amendment, which would then read: "...the right of the people to keep and bear arms, when serving in the militia, shall not be infringed."



Stevens agreed that adding those five words would allow legislatures and Congress, rather than the courts, to "do what they think is in the best public interest."

Stevens says America's Founding Fathers never intended the Second Amendment to be an individual right: He said the framers feared that the "federal government would be so strong they might destroy the state militias."

Stephanopoulos followed up: "But to be clear, if Congress passed a national ban on individual gun ownership, that would be constitutional under your amendment."

"I think that's right," Stevens said.

For more ammunition towards term limiting federal judges, just pick up a copy of Mark Levin's first book, Men in Black, and read the 10-page preface entitled Men, Not Gods. Stevens fits right in.

What this idiot fails to realize is that he's actually inciting revolution when he promotes bigger government over individual liberties (the latter of which the Framers intended, Mr. Stevens).
