Do you need a doctrine about "black letter language"? I think that...


...nonsense is what led to the original Roe decision to begin with.

If a law or the Constitution specifically refers to something, it's ipso facto reasonable to use that language as part of a decision-making process. In this case, the 2A flat out states that people have the right to keep and bear arms in big, bold, beautiful black letters. No one should need a "doctrine" to understand that.

On abortion, I've explained this multiple times now. The people in this country -- not unelected judges -- have the right and the power to decide policy for themselves through their democratic process reflecting their own values. In Roe, the court majority substituted its own personal values for the people's and imposed those values on everyone in the country with the force of law. That is definitionally tyranny -- i.e., unreasonable and arbitrary use of power or control. And, to answer your last question on this point, the right to life of the being living inside the mother's womb is being violated by abortion.

On prayer, how did the government establish religion in this instance? That is ridiculous. An individual said a prayer on his own time, forcing no one to participate. He was then punished BY THE GOVERNMENT for doing so. That is an obvious 1A violation of his individual rights.
