[quote:FlashMob:MV8yMTE0Nzg0XzM1NjcxNjk2XzIyNUJGM0E1] How does anyone know that this is not true? When the constitution was written slavery was alive and well. Segregation was also in abundance. They never considered blacks as men, humans, etc. They treated them as property. What Danny Glover say has some validity to it. From, Right Wing White male with College Degree in Psychology who will NEVER give up MY RIGHT to Bear Arms. [/quote]
Original Message
“I don’t know if you know the genesis of the right to bear arms,” he said. “The Second Amendment comes from the right to protect themselves from slave revolts, and from uprisings by Native Americans.”
“A revolt from people who were stolen from their land or revolt from people whose land was stolen from, that’s what the genesis of the second amendment is,” he continued.
