Re. Guns, it's not a different topic at all. The constitution is the reason why no American government is able to ban guns. No American government will, while the second Amendment holds.

So yes it is fundamental to the gun debate.

The constitutional stasis is cause death after death after death of the citizens it is meant to protect.

To anyone new reading:

Heresy? Am I offending you?

How Holy are you regarding words made by politicians and soldiers of the past?

If you're offended my case gains further proof.
As far as words changing the words of the Constitution are the rules of this country. They are the rules we play by. Do you play poker? Would you allow me to 'interperate' the rules of poker as we play? I can think of an interpertation of where my 2 pair beats your full house.[/QUOTE]Well the anti gun lobby has all but given up trying to get the second amendment reinterpreted. It can't be done.
