It is April 19, 1775 when Lexington and Concord happened. On this day a certain Major was ordered to take away the weapons which most likely be rifles from the the Massachusetts residents associated with a rebellious militia. They the rebels had the most technologically advanced weapon of that day to defend themselves against what nobody thought would happen oh maybe a few conspiracy theorist like the crazy Adams Brothers you know the ones Samuel and John Adams they were in your history books. It did happen and that day the rebel Militia and I call them The Rebel Militia and the reason why was that there had always been Militias you know who fought against Natives that would attack the forts and towns and this did happen regardless what history want you believe that Native American tribes were just hippies when in truth some were just mean who hated the white man over here. They the Native Americans were under Tribal laws and some liked the White man and some well hated the White man different tribes different folks and they were still a little bitter from that time that Some Native American Tribes joined with the French in the French and the Indian war and you better be glad we won that one or we might have been praying to the Pope or worse be like French Canada I am just Joking I love Celine Dion really I do. The point is there were evil Native Americans that would attack the colonist and there were Militias designed to handle that. The Militia was fully under the Massachusetts Governor Gage now because of the Massachusetts Government Act of May 1774 and you better believe that was a slap in the face of King George. So now that Massachusetts had given itself more power, anything the British Royal Forces would do would seem like an Invasion. Imagine a division of The United States military arresting someone without a local Judge's warrant just coming to your state trumping the laws of your state like a I guess lets Call them the Department Of Homeland Security. Well this Militia stopped those DHS oh I Mean British royal Army guys from arresting and usurping the authority the Massachusetts state had given themselves. Now this battle was important because it led to why our founders wanted the second Amendment. I am sure the founders loved hunting that is not the case for the second Amendment. It was not just for the fact that they needed to fight foreign wars and I am sure that was a good thing. It was because in the case of all the Militias that King George could have enabled against the colonist it was so that regular guys like you and me could defend ourselves against an evil Militia because they just showed in the battle of Lexington and the Battle of Concord that it could happen and the Conspiracy Theorist Like Adams were right. It did not give the man the right to own a gun no the 2nd Amendment just said yes we agree it is your God given right for you to have one and to be able to own a gun because we cannot see in the future and you need the best because we had access to the best and we fought and died so you could owned the best. 7,200 Americans died in battle during the Revolution another 10,000 died from disease or exposure and about 8,500 died in British prisons that is a lot of people who sacrificed so we could have a gun in case of tyranny.
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.
I think Thomas Jefferson said it best
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manureIf you think these guys did not want us the the common man to have access to the best weapon out there just read your history and come back to me.
