"[A]t one point or another in our history, 'whatever the people wanted' included such things as segregation, subjugation of women, and slavery. Even today, it includes the War on Drugs, the War on Guns, and the War on Private Property. Democracy was something that our Founding Fathers opposed. That is why they established a system of government where representatives are elected by the people to use their own judgment in creating laws, and that men would be governed by the rule of law." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
To prohibit a citizen from wearing or carrying a war arm . . . is an unwarranted restriction upon the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege. [Wilson v. State, 33 Ark. 557, at 560, 34 Am. Rep. 52, at 54 (1878)] |
