Article V.
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.

Yes they can, what do you think the infamous "Amendments" are ? Although strictly speaking this is not really a _change_ to the original Constitution but a _clarification_, normally decided by the judiciary.

An example was in Article IV Section 2 that permitted runaway slaves to be returned even if they crossed a state line, as per the rules for criminals, this was later overridden by 13th Amendment (1865) that outlawed slavery.

In most cases these _clarifications_ are applied without the need to change the actual wording of the Constitution, this is known as an "informal amendment", but it amounts to the same thing.

The case in this thread concerns the 2nd Amendment or "right to bear arms", there have been several attempts to raise an Amendment that either clarifies this one or overrules it.

aye. but teh gun lobby has some serious players.

only with clinton has it really become an issue.

unfortunatley it all comes down to self control. I love going down the range and popping off a few rounds. maybe at the odd animal but thats it.


bad things happen when the bad sadistic mothers.. start using them *case in point above*


human natrue is tempermental and can never be reliable. guns cant be gotten rid of because the believe that its their god given right
