Most of the people who work in the Mainstream Media have no knowledge of guns. They also lack a clear understanding of the Second Amendment and usually parrot the liberal view on gun control.
Enter reporter Ben Swann of CBS News in Atlanta, who did an amazing report on the issue yesterday.
While explaining the Second Amendment, Swann pointed out the following:
In short, the federalists—including men like John Jay, James Madison and George Washington—wanted the Second Amendment because they believed a strong federal government would be able to control a standing army.
And the anti-federalists wanted it because it would mean every able-bodied man in America would be armed in the event that the federal government or America’s own standing army turned on its own people.
I told you it’s a hard truth. And that is what you need to know.
The Second Amendment is not about hunting, or even just defense of your own home. It was written by men who ultimately believed that governments and armies would turn on their own people.
The Second Amendment was written to guarantee that would never happen.
