In Search of the Second Amendment – They say in war, the truth is often the first casualty. In the decades-long political war against your Constitutionally protected rights, this has certainly been the case. Also in a political war, one must have at least the illusion of credibility in order to be taken seriously by a majority of people. This documentary strips all illusion of credibility from the anti-rights activists. Using language directly from those who wrote and ratified our Constitution, well foot-noted, it could go a long way toward achieving a peaceful resolution to this issue, and by the only means that has ever worked – disgracing the anti-freedom forces with solid, irrefutable evidence while showing the positive results that come from the protection of basic rights. We’re all for compromise, you understand, so long as the anti-gun, anti self defense, anti-freedom activists are compromising in favor of Liberty and specifically in favor of the Bill of Rights at every turn, thereby showing us how mature, how magnanimous they are, and how well they can get along with their fellow Americans.
