The Birthplace of The Second Amendment? [View All]

[hexola]

Wondering what folks might think of this??

This started out as an effort to save a historic building that is tied to the early stages of the American Revolution. (think James Smith and The Black Boys)

But the group factioned, and now has this sub-group spinning (IMO) this "birthplace of the 2nd Amendment" notion.

I maintain that its just not logical to cast these events as a "defining moment" in the formation of the 2nd Amendment. It has a relation, but thats as far as I can take it.

The "birthplace" was the constitutional convention in 1787. (and even then they didnt add the Bill of Rights until 1790)

And, apparently, the English Bill of Rights contains similar language.

Birthplace?...more like glory seeking blowhards, IMO.

I think these poor folks have fallen for all froth and fever of the 2nd amendment "supporters"

Even worse, the notion drips of cynicism toward our rural population...(they cling to their guns) - not a great way to gain the locals support...a bit obvious.

And - appreciate anyone who could cross-post this site to FreeRepublic...I would actually be interested in their take on it.
