Newsom Goes Full Orwell with 28th Amendment to Gut 2nd

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% :The Second Amendment doesn't "grant" rights, either, as anyone but an ignoramus or a liar would know.
54% : The Second amendment declares that it shall not be infringed ..."While Newson's 28 Amendment may not appear as draconian on the surface as Moore's, his, too, includes the provision for unlimited expansion:"Additionally, the 28th Amendment will affirm Congress, states, and local governments can enact additional common-sense gun safety regulations that save lives."
52% : "While leaving the 2nd Amendment unchanged and respecting America's gun-owning tradition, the Governor's proposal guarantees common sense constitutional protections and gun safety measures that Democrats, Republicans, independent voters, and gun owners overwhelmingly support - including universal background checks, raising the firearm purchase age to 21, instituting a firearm purchase waiting period, and barring the civilian purchase of assault weapons."
50% : This Amendment thus repeals and replaces the Second Amendment."
50% : As two different Supreme Courts have acknowledged:"The very text of the Second Amendment implicitly recognizes the pre-existence of the right and declares only that it "shall not be infringed."
48% : The bottom line is Newsom is lying through his teeth using the old Democrat ploy that "We can still respect the Second Amendment while infringing the hell out of it, and turning it into revokable privileges we can withhold at will."
42% : Perhaps pointing out that Newsom is weaponizing it to gut the Second Amendment may diminish their influence among people still on the fence.
41% : And he includes an ultimatum at the end, aptly and ironically titled "Section 8":"Persons already owning any of the above banned firearms, and who do not fall into the legal groups of restricted firearms owners, will have one month from the ratification of this Amendment to turn in their firearms for destruction by local law enforcement."
