The Supreme Law of the Land

The supreme law of the land is the Constitution of the United States, along with federal laws made under constitutional authority, and treaties of the United States.

Why then do we have five Supreme Court justices who cannot read the supreme law of the land, "...the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed." and decide that gun control laws are unconstitutional, void and unenforceable? Obviously, because these Supreme Court justices, who should be the brightest and best, have their own agenda, and it ain't the agenda of the people.

Just another reason not to appoint lawyers to the Supreme Court. What we need is not liberal, northeastern university ivy-league lawyers or ex-judges, but we need people at the supreme who have common sense and understand it is their job to determine the CONSTITUTIONALITY of laws and not to make law.

I'm all for a constitutional amendment that limits the terms of Chief Justice and Supreme Court justices to not longer than 10 years or when they reach the age of 79.
