And not to be a doomsayer, but once they can knock one part of the Bill of Rights down, then clearly they can see about knocking down other parts, as well. All they need is some kind of an emergency (real or imagined), and they'll be all over it.

These are serious concerns. They're just in the wrong thread, that's all.
They should be in a thread with a title mentioning Bush, Cheney, Patriot Act, and the last 12 years.
Warrantless wire-tapping? Detention without trial? "Enhanced interrogation"?
If you seriously think your gun rights are effectively protecting all your other rights, you haven't been paying attention for the last 12 years.
