Teeth of the Constitution

"A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed."

The Second Amendment is arguably the most important: it is the "teeth" of our Constitution.

As Thomas Jefferson said, "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

    Paul Bucher for Wisconsin Attorney General

    H/T to Boots and Sabers for this post about Paul Bucher who recently announced that he will run for Wisconsin Attorney Geberal.

    Bucher stated that "The problems aren’t the guns, it’s the guns in the wrong hands." adding “We need to put more guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens...". Read more at Boots & Sabers.

    He hits the nail right on the head - at least get the law abiding citizens on an even playing field with the common criminal. Maybe then the bad guys will think twice before preying on the "defenseless" ordinary citizen (who may not be that defenseless after all!).
