Rewrite the 2nd Amendment

Created by I.W. on January 17, 2013

Repeal the 2nd Amendment as an archaic, vaguely worded, and dangerous relic of the 18th century, and replace it with a new amendment permitting restricted ownership by U.S. citizens of a range of low-power firearms appropriate to sporting and home defense needs, excluding high-capacity and military-grade weaponry for anyone not currently serving in a law-enforcement, military, or other security-related capacity, and subject in all cases to strict licensing requirements including, but not limited to, both written and field testing requiring renewal on a regular basis, and thorough background checks for all gun purchases without exception.
