3 Amendments

 I propose the following amendments:

The Right to Privacy Amendment
Congress shall make no law violating a citizen's right to privacy.

The Freedom to Love Amendment
Congress shall make no law restricting the right of consenting adults in private to love as they will, if it harm none.

The Second Amendment Repair Act
1. The right of the people to keep and bear arms in a well-regulated State militia shall not be infringed.
2. Well-regulated militias shall not arm those under adult age, nor arm those found guilty of treason as defined by the Constitution.
3. States have the right to enforce additional regulation of their militias.


Comments:

The Privacy Rights amendment is evidently necessary now, given that many long-established rights depend upon the right to privacy, yet destructive pseudo-conservatives lust to expand State power. This baffles me: pseudo-conservatives are allegedly propertarians, but how can there be private property unless there is privacy?

The Free Love Amendment can also be called the MYOB Amendment (for Mind Your Own Business), and the Wiccan Rede Amendment. ("If it harm none, love as you will.") The first nine words sound 18th-century, the next four words sound square-American 60s, and the last nine words sound counter-cultural America 60s. Right on! This one explicitly cites the right to privacy.

The Second Amendment Repair Act can be enacted as an act of Congress. It will be challenged, but it cannot be overturned without overturning the Second Amendment itself. SARA restates the Second Amendment with proper grammar, in a single clause, with weapons rights explicitly balanced by weapons responsibilities. This repairs the damage caused by Scalia's judicial activism in "DC vs Heller". For decades we have labored under a 2nd Amendment half repealed, to malign effect now self-evident to all but idiots, ideologues, insurrectionists, and organized crime. Clause 2 emphasizes that a well-regulated militia does not arm ill-regulated persons such as teenagers and traitors. Clause 3 emphasizes gun control as part of state's rights.
