Is there any movement to repeal the second ammendment?

42. Are you just repeating this from some gun nut site?

Because it doesn't appear as if you understand what the Stevens dissent means. You would help yourself by reading all of it. Stevens listed two state (commonwealth) documents that included language for self defense which supported his argument that self-defense was specifically excluded from the 2A. That doesn't mean he "acknowledged" that right as it applies to the 2nd Amendment or any other. He simply cited factual information in historical documents which support his argument just like any other judge does. Certainly VA and PA could include a civilian right to bear arms just like any other state can in their own constitution. Stevens never challenged this because that's NOT the argument Scalia made.

Here is the wiki article on the 9th Amendment. The only reference to what you are saying is this:

[font color=red size=2]Gun rights activists[/font] in recent decades have sometimes argued for a fundamental natural right to keep and bear arms that both predates the U.S. Constitution and is covered by the Constitution's Ninth Amendment; according to this viewpoint, the Second Amendment only enumerates a pre-existing right to keep and bear arms.[15]

The reference provided by wiki is a gun nut site.

I'm not going to entertain gun nut arguments written by gun nuts for the consumption of gun nuts. My only interest is discussing what the SCOTUS decision actually argued and actually said, not some tangential fantasy argument from some gun nut web site. Scalia didn't even go there and I damn sure ain't. If you want to, be my guest, but I'm not going there with you. If you want to have that discussion, the gungeon is the perfect place for it. You won't find me in there. Just sayin'
