Word Research Needed Immediately

Court's Interpretation of the Second Amendment is at Stake

November 3, 2003

KeepAndBearArms.com -- The words of the Second Amendment are likely to be considered by the U.S. Supreme Court soon. We are doing important research to that end and are asking for immediate help.

What we need:

1) Scanned images from old dictionaries -- 1750 to 1825 -- of certain definitions.

2) Dictionaries from 1750 to 1825 donated to us for use in this research.

If a nearby library has very old dictionaries, we need your help! Please scan the FRONT COVER, TITLE PAGE (and any other page with publication date) and the PAGE WITH THE DEFINITION of the words below. The definitions we need are listed below in order of importance; the first two are the most important:

regulated
infringed
keep
bear
militia
necessary
security
right
people
arms

We'd prefer to have them all but will take what we can get and be grateful. Scanned images should be 240dpi or better if possible.

If you can donate any old dictionaries, please mail them to:

KeepAndBearArms.com
1109 S. Plaza Way, #136
Flagstaff, Arizona  86001

If you either (A) own old dictionaries you are willing to donate or (B) are willing to do some research as described above, please contact Angel Shamaya directly at Shamaya@KeepAndBearArms.com or (928) 522-8833 with details on what you will be doing to help. If you're just dropping a dictionary or two in the mail, please send an email about the book(s) -- name, publication date, etc. -- so we know what's on the way.

Thanks!
