Oh, No!
A Trump appointee believes that the founders, who had just finished overthrowing their government, put the 2nd Amendment in the Constitution to preserve their right to...overthrow the government. That can't be right, why would anybody believe they'd want to do THAT? |

This is what I was taught in eighth grade civics. That was in 1962, and it is no longer taught by the liberal educational establishment.
Just because the liberals dismiss this purpose of the second amendment, does not make it any less factual. Any unbiased student of history would come to the same conclusion. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
