John Paul Stevens: Repeal The Second Amendment
link
Heller was right, and there really can't be any reasonable doubt about it. The Second Amendment recognizes the right of individuals to keep and bear firearms. Alternate readings of the amendment are sheer fantasy.
Stevens is right, at least, in one respect: thwarting the individual right would require repealing the Second Amendment.
And if you think you can do it--and think you can enforce it--then, well, molon labe.
The left seems to split its time pretty equally between Oh, no, we don't want to take your guns! and Give us your guns!

In fairness, that's how they advocate for every issue. You can't fault consistent inconsistency.
On the other side of the coin, the NRA is *not* pro-second amendment. They like quoting it with ellipses representing the "well-regulated" part of it, as they have done above the door to their headquarters. This leads to perverse results like the FBI using paper records and phone calls in their 3-day background checks. Use of computers is forbidden.
