Show Transcript

Oct 27, 2019

In this episode, I answer the question: Does the 2nd Amendment apply to all bearable arms or just muskets?
Many folks today believe the founders could never have imagined an AR-15 and would never support civilian ownership of one. I explore what it would be like if all Constitutional rights were treated this way.
I talk about the success of insugencies against superior fighting power.
Most importantly, I explore the many 18th century "assault weapons" that existed when the 2nd Amendment was written.
