View MoreWhat if we could get into the minds and conversations of a group of men back in the 1790’s. Then we could find out just what they meant when they wrote a 26-word sentence, with its three commas and weird sentence structure. Then we could put this entire debate to bed. How cool would that be if we ever got to hear what was going through their minds? Turns out we can. Numerous men, who were a part of that effort and were in government at that time, told us what the 2nd Amendment really meant. Fresh off his “give me liberty or give me death” speech, Patrick Henry discussed the ratification of the Amendments in Virgina. “The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able may have a gun.” Turns out, Samuel Adams makes more than just a really good lager. He also makes a valid point. “That the said Constitution shall never be construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press or the rights of conscience [religion]; or to prevent the people of the United states who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms.” Trenche Cox was a Pennsylvania delegate to the Continental Congress. In February 1788, he wrote in the Pennsylvania Gazette: “Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American. The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state government, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people.” Yes, he referred to swords, but he also said, “every other terrible implement of the soldier,” meaning that Americans should have access to the same things our military has access to. Thomas Jefferson himself said: “No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.” Noah Webster, who made a living defining things, discussed the reality of the 2nd Amendment as it pertained to tyranny. Before a standing Army can rule, the people must be disarmed, as they are in almost every country in Europe. The supreme power [government] in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops.” James Madison wrote the following in the Federalist Papers (#46): “Besides the advantages of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of.” Huh…it is almost as though the Democrats leading the charge on infringing on the uninfringeable right didn’t know that they had access to this information. It could be that their researchers are spending too much time trying to do feasibility studies on men using women’s restrooms or whether to legalize pedophilia as a sexual orientation.
