It is good that they are moving the battle lines and letting their readers know their true agenda, and that is Cosmoline's second point - undo the republic itself. There is a far left movement out there that occassonally calls for a new constitutional convention. Do we really want that? That, folks is the next battle, if they are willing to concede the power of the 2A.

1--It's almost impossible to amend.
2--It may actually be impossible to eliminate a portion of the BOR without undoing the republic itself.
3--By arguing that the Second must be destroyed, they concede that the Second has power. A far more dangerous and successful attack has been to say the Second is simply dead letter.
