Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Second Amendment

When we no longer need people to keep muskets in their home, then the Second Amendment has no function, its function is to enable the young nation to have people who will fight for it to have weapons that those soldiers will own.  So I view the Second Amendment as rooted in the time totally allied to the need to support a militia.  So...the Second Amendment is outdated in the sense that its function has become obsolete.

Lew Rockwell on Roth Bader Ginsburg and the right to bear arms

We should support our basic right to self-defense. This is guaranteed by the Second Amendment, but our rights don’t depend on the State and its Constitution. By the way, the recently sainted Ruth Bader Ginsburg wanted to end the individual right to keep and bear arms. Our rights come from natural law, and only the free market can enforce them and protect us.
