What were our Founding Fathers thinking when they wrote the Second Amendment?
Well, they were not engaged in narrow partisan politics. They were not posturing for Fox News or trying to “make nice to soccer moms.”
These were serious men who came fresh from the white-hot forge of revolution. A war had just been fought to overthrow the yoke of an oppressive and unresponsive Government that invaded homes without warrant and which exposed the populace to "dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within."
This is as fine and concise a read as I have ever come across. While I don't quite get how someone who would give a constructionist interpretation to the Second Amendment could embrace (non-Jeffersonian) "liberal" ideology when it comes to other things we expect, demand or allow government to do to us, I think you'll enjoy it from a pure 2A perspective. If you do, share it with your friends.
