Everything but Islamic terrorism is the lead topic in the wake of the Orlando terrorist attack. While the media are focusing on "hate" crimes and reminding everyone that right-wing extremism is just as dangerous as Islamic terrorism, the Obama administration is pushing for a ban on guns -- inanimate objects capable of nothing until an ideology pulls the trigger.

Yet gun control inherently infringes upon our Constitutional rights, so something even more extreme has to be proposed by those who would prefer to see zero guns in the hands of American citizens. And Rolling Stone is one progressive mouthpiece saying it plainly in a recent article, "Why It's Time to Repeal the Second Amendment."

Writer David S. Cohen explains:

I teach the Constitution for a living. I revere the document when it is used to further social justice and make our country a more inclusive one. I admire the Founders for establishing a representative democracy that has survived for over two centuries.

But sometimes we just have to acknowledge that the Founders and the Constitution are wrong. This is one of those times. We need to say loud and clear: The Second Amendment must be repealed.

As much as we have a culture of reverence for the founding generation, it's important to understand that they got it wrong — and got it wrong often," Cohen continues.

Then, listing several amendments that were added to "fix the flaws" in the Constitution, Cohen sets the foundation for why the Second Amendment must be "jettisoned" and "must be done now:"

The Second Amendment needs to be repealed because it is outdated, a threat to liberty and a suicide pact.

Because there was nothing like the oft-labeled evil AR-15 back when the Founders wrote the Second Amendment, Cohen reasons that they "didn't have to weigh the risks of one man killing 49 and injuring 53 all by himself." But now that modern society knows this is a possibility (forget all the bloodshed the Founders witnessed on battlefields from those slightly murderous muskets), "the risk-benefit analysis of 1791 is flatly irrelevant to the risk-benefit analysis of today."

This isn't the first time these sentiments were printed on the pages in Rolling Stone. Last year, writer Amanda Marcotte expressed her utter disdain for the Second Amendment that matches Cohen rant-for-rant (albeit with more colorful language):

Here's a good time to remind everyone that the Second Amendment was written by slaveholders before we had electricity, much less the kind of weaponry that would-be murderers can buy today. But sure, if you think it's that precious, we can compromise: If you love the Second Amendment that much, feel free to live in a powdered wig and shit in a chamberpot while trying to survive off what you can kill with an 18th century musket. In exchange, let those of us living in this century pass some laws so we can feel safe going to class, or the movies, or anywhere without worrying that some maladjusted man will try to get his revenge by raining death on random strangers.

Cohen agrees: "The liberty of some to own guns cannot take precedence over the liberty of everyone to live their lives free from the risk of being easily murdered. It has for too long, and we must now say no more."

In conclusion, Cohen calls for a "mass movement" of people who are frustrated by always being under the outdated ruling of our "long-dead Founders" and upgrade to a new operating system that will delete guns from its code:

At this point, bickering about the niceties of textual interpretation, whether the history of the amendment supports this view or that, and how legislators can solve this problem within the confines of the constitution is useless drivel that will lead to more of the same. We need a mass movement of those who are fed up with the long-dead Founders' view of the world ruling current day politics. A mass movement of those who will stand up and say that our founding document was wrong and needs to be changed. A mass movement of those who will thumb their nose at the NRA, an organization that is nothing more than the political wing of the country's gun manufacturers, and say enough is enough.

The Second Amendment must be repealed, and it is the essence of American democracy to say so.
