I didn't really comment on if it was enforceable, just that in a logical manner there is a path for amendments to be removed, added or changed. Doing minimal research on prohibition since I had no context into what triggered it: "Prohibition also united progressives and revivalists. The temperance movement had popularized the belief that alcohol was the major cause of most personal and social problems and prohibition was seen as the solution to the nation's poverty, crime, violence, and other ills." [0] You could replace alcohol with firearms and the part about removing them being "solution to the nation's poverty, crime, violence, and other ills". I bet there are a lot of people that would believe that prohibiting firearms would help solve those issues. Just because laws are not easy to enforce doesn't mean they can't happen. There are still counties in some states that are 'dry'. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibition_in_the_United_Stat... |
