Original Message I found a really cool article today and just had to share. The 3rd amendment is pretty much ignored as completely irrelevant today. It shouldn’t be, because it provides and excellent backdrop for just how far the 2nd amendment was really intended to go. The American British colonists actually had to deal with standing armies roaming the streets that ransacked people’s houses for food, supplies, and shelter. The 2nd amendment was written because of the need to be able to defend your home from that kind of tyranny. A single shot pop gun isn’t going to do the job if the BATFE, the FBI, or the military come knocking. To adequately defend yourself, you need to be at least as well armed as the attacker even if that attacker is modern military.

Here is the article. [link to freedomoutpost.com]
