If the second amendment guarantees a right to bear arms (and to buy them, presumably, and the fourteenth amendment says that -all persons born. in the United States are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the rights. of citizens of the United States. -, isn't it technically unconstitutional for there to be an age requirement for purchasing a gun? If someone under 21 can't purchase a handgun and someone under 18 can't purchase a long gun, aren't their rights as citizens of the United States being abridged? Regardless of what the courts have said, I believe that the right to bear arms (just like the right to free speech) applies to all citizens, regardless of age.

I wish this would have mentioned the Freedom of Association which is the most controversial part of the 14th. It's bizarre to me that you can purport to teach about the amendments but fail to mention a huge clashing aspect of the 14th against the 11th. This is the most important part of our constitution; explaining why we let certain amendments override others.

-ability to pass laws that favor them- is not a justification for discrimination based or race or ethnicity - THE ABILITY TO ADVOCATE to our fellow citizens to change the laws to favor the minority is the correct path.

Thank you so much! Currently preparing for the Bar exam as a foreign-educated student (UK) and these crash courses are so helpful in getting my head around a completely different judicial system!

The US Constitution was not meant to protect minorities from the majority. It was enacted to protect the majority from a very specific minority -- the ruling elites.

The thing I hate about crash course, they speak a little too fast. I can't even understand what he is saying. Thanks for giving me a 0% on my 27 Amendments Test

The constitution doesn't mean anything - the government is out to screw everyone over and take more power for itself and less rights for citizens.
