NYT: Opinion | John Paul Stevens: Repeal the Second Amendment
This weekend’s marches make it clear: To enact real gun control, we need to change the Constitution.
Retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens tells demonstrators to demand a repeal of the Second Amendment, saying it’s a relic and it will do far more to weaken the N.R.A.’s ability to block gun control legislation than anything else. He says overturning the decision District of Columbia v. Heller (he was one of the four dissenters) via a constitutional amendment is better than any other available option.
