Observations from the past re...

the Supreme Court's decision to allow us to "keep and bear arms":

What I find "interesting" is this:

Patrick Henry - "The great object is that every man be armed..."


Zachariah Johnson - "The people are not to be disarmed of their weapons. They are left in full posession of them." Elliot's Debates, vol. 3 "The Debates in the Several State  Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution."

Thomas Jefferson - "No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms..."
and "The greatest danger to American freedom is a government that ignores the Constitution." Third President of the United States

"… the people are confirmed by the next article in their right to keep and bear their private arms"
Philadelphia Federal Gazette
June 18, 1789, Pg. 2, Col. 2
Article on the Bill of Rights

Alexander Hamilton - "The best we can hop for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed." The Federalist Papers at 184-8

George Washington - "Firearms stand next in importance to the constitution itself..."

Samuel Adams - "The Constitution shall never be construed... to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms." quoted in the Philadelphia Independent
Gazetteer, August 20, 1789.

Therefore:

Four out of Five SCOTUS justices declared the US Constitution (Second Amendment) to be unconstitutional...
