Here’s a thought exercise. Please indulge this idea: if slavery had never taken root in the U.S., would there have been a need for a 2nd Amendment to this nation’s constitution?
Take into consideration Roger Williams University’s Distinguished Research Professor of Law, Carl T. Bogus, whose thought-throttling paper was published in the University of California Davis Law Review. Titled, “The Hidden History of the 2nd Amendment” (2019), the article documents and explores ongoing conversations among a number of contributors to the Constitution (1789), which later led to the framing of the Bill of Rights back in 1791. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
