Would you agree to allowing a politician that had never written a book, never penned an article, never written a single paragraph in their entire life or a sentence to regulate the printing press, the internet and free speech?

I don't think that person could be elected.

Would you fight using force to preserve your free speech rights if that person said they intended to remove the internet...ok if they only intended to remove 75% of the website, every single website that allowed say anonymity, a dangerous tool of terrorists that has no place on our city internet streets.

I think drawing parallels to other Amendments in the Bill of Rights is creating a bit of a false dichotomy - they each need to stand on their own merits. I think there's a lot of ways that the 1st Amendment can be interpreted, just like the 2nd - the Constitution is a living document designed to be adaptable to the future needs of the country. The 2nd Amendment doesn't say anything at all about pistol grips, magazine sizes, or grenade launchers, you know? In the Heller decision it was ruled that "the right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose," and that's from the most pro-gun ruling we've had in almost a century.

That is like allowing a person like Bernie Sanders, who as far as I know has never owned a gun and exercised his second amendment rights in his entire life nor even ever fired a firearm, to dictate and regulate the right to keep and bear arms to the 100 million gun owners of this nation.

I don't really see how firing a weapon or not validates an opinion on the matter - do you need to have soldiers quartered in your house during peacetime to have an opinion on the 3rd Amendment? - but, regardless, the President isn't a king. Even if some form of gun control were to pass through Congress it would still have to pass through the courts and end in a lengthy and very challenging Supreme Court hearing. Sanders' opinion on assault weapons is pretty much the same as Obama's, who, you might recall, had the same fears about gun confiscation levied at him while nothing actually happened.

Personally, I think the 2nd Amendment is a fundamental element to our country that it has been bastardized by the NRA to turn it into 'the right to buy guns at retail' instead of actually working toward modernizing keeping and bearing arms for the security of a free state.
