The Second Amendment: No First Without The Second

The Bill of Rights was introduced by James Madison, the Father of the Constitution and Fourth President of the United States, in 1789 to the First United States Congress and were put into effect as constitutional amendments on December 15, 1791 when they were ratified by the states of the Union at that time. Originally Madison wanted this to be included in the original constitution but those were struck down by the Founders at that time.

The Bill of Rights is just that, rights! Something that is guaranteed that cannot be taken away. Many people now days do not think of them as rights but they are. They are not privileges, they are rights!

The Second Amendment is probably the most heated of them all, literally and figuratively. It reads:

"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."

Many have thought that the word "Militia" means "military" when in fact at the time of the Bill of Rights "militia" meant "the people" (Norton, page 206). That is right, "the people" have the right to keep and bear arms. If you have ever seen the movie The Patriot starring Mel Gibson you will understand this concept even more. I recommend you go and watch it.

"The first legislation on the subject was The Militia Act of 1792 which provided, in part:
"That each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia, ... every citizen, so enrolled and notified, shall, within six months thereafter, provide himself with a good musket or firelock...."
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militia_Act_of_1792)

This was replaced by The Militia Act of 1903 that established the "organized militia" and "reserved" or "unorganized militia". The Organized Militia is now the National Guard, maintained by each state. The Unorganized Militia is the people.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militia_Act_of_1903)

The Second Amendment is what protects the rest of the Amendments regarding the freedoms of speech, religion, voting, and others.

In "Utah Gun Law" by Mitch Vilos he gave three (3) reasons for the Second Amendment:

1) It is a vital "check" on government tyranny.
Here are some unknown facts about when the "right to keep and bear arms" were taken away from other nations:

* In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. This doesn't include the 30 million 'Uncle Joe' starved to death in the Ukraine.

* In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, leaving a populace unable to defend itself against the Gestapo and SS. Hundreds of thousands died as a result.

* China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. The total dead are said to be 2-3 million

* Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, 1-2 million 'educated' people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million at a bare minimum.

You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.

Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.

Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late.

The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind him of this history lesson.

With Guns...........We Are "Citizens".
Without Them........We Are "Subjects".

It just shows you that gun control doesn't work! The Second Amendment protects the citizens!

2) It in an important deterrent to foreign invasion.

During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED.

Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack on Pearl Harbor had attended Harvard University 1919-1921 & was Naval Attaché to the U. S. 1925-28. Most of our Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor and our Army had been deprived of funding and was ill prepared to defend the country.

It was reported that when asked why Japan did not follow up the Pearl Harbor attack with an invasion of the U. S. Mainland, his reply was that he had lived in the U. S. and knew that almost all households had guns.

3) It allows free citizens to defend themselves from violent criminal attack.

* Gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results:

Australia-wide, homicides went up 3.2 percent

Australia-wide, assaults went up 8.6 percent

Australia-wide, armed robberies went up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)

In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns.

It will never happen here? I bet the Aussies said that too.

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady DECREASE in armed robbery with firearms, that changed drastically upward in the first year after gun confiscation...since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.

There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.

(Vilos, page 1).

So, there we have it. The three (3) big reasons for the Second Amendment. There are no other rights without the Second Amendment. It protects us and our community, our nation, our very way of life.

Say "No To Gun Control!" Say "No To Anti-Gun Laws!" Say "No To Liberal Politicians Wanting To Disarm America!"

More coming soon as we look to see how the Obama Administration treats the Second Amendment.
