One need only read the letters and papers of the Framers to understand that our founding documents were written to empower individuals, not government. That premise frightens Liberal Progressives right out of their noggins. The raging debate over the Second Amendment is a good example of how unhinged they become when we start talking up the “Bill of Rights”, and (why) it was written. You see, great care was taken over two centuries ago, to vet the myriad of challenges and proposals that swirled around many a secret hideaway during the time of our nation’s founding. In the end, our Declaration of Independence and eventual Constitution, set a bar for government of, by, and for the people, which no nation on earth has yet matched. Nevertheless, it seems that as unique and unprecedented as those documents were, they have been pummeled and buckled over time and under the weight of revisionism and relentless attacks by freedoms enemies.

That very freedom, so eloquently laid out on the parchment of the day, has been continually mischaracterized and even assaulted by many a political and/or judicial academic. “Original intent”, so easily defined with a simple keystroke or a trip to the local library for those of a nostalgic enterprise, has been discarded as outdated and even “imbecilic” by fools who can’t even recognize the hard fought avenue of their free speech.

In my time writing about modern political events, it has occurred to me that those interested in legitimate debate for the purpose of bettering our nation for our children and grandchildren, are actually few and far between. On the other hand, the aforementioned “enemies of liberty” are interested only in “fundamentally transforming America”. Wake up folks! Your country is dying!
