How does the second amendment make the country more democratic?

History
1 answer:
andrew-mc [135]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Firstly, the 2nd Amendment was originally designed for the people to defend themselves against a possible dictatorship where the citizens could possibly overthrow the govt.

Secondly, a democracy shows that the power is held within the people..they elect their officials and such

So, if you put the two together, the second amendment makes the country more democratic because the power is held by the people because they can overthrow the govt with their arms

Which one of the following methods was used only once to ratify an amendment?
sergiy2304 [10]
The correct answer is <span>A. By approval of conventions in three-fourths of the states

The most common way is the third one, three-fourths of state legislatures and a supermajority of the congress approves it, however, only once the first method was used. It is a legitimate option outlined in the constitution. The congress can call for national conventions which can pass the amendment but this doesn't happen often.</span>
