Guns keep us free

Amendment 2 - Right to Bear Arms. Ratified 12/15/1791. Note

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."


Shall not be infringed, I think that is my favorite part of the 2ND. Amendment. The founding fathers knew that unless they did something to keep Gov. in check, we would quickly end up as we were in England. That just did not set well with them.


The Right to bare arms guaranties all the other rights. The right to free speech. the right to privacy. The right to your own faith. The right to protect your self, etc.


If we give up this fundamental right, we give them all up. Remember, it was armed citizens that made us free and it will be armed citizens that keep us free.


Semper Fi.
