240 Years ago today on June 12th 1776 while the Virginia State Convention was assembled in Williamsburg, it unanimously adopted George Mason's declaration of rights.

George Mason, one of our greatest founding fathers and thinkers put forth a 16 section declaration that would later inspire the text of our country's Declaration of Independence (penned less than a month later by T. Jefferson also from Virginia) and our County's Bill of Rights (penned a few years later by James Madison also from Virginia).

It is important for American Gun Owners to know about George Mason's declaration even though it was only for Virginia because of what he wrote in section 13...

"That a well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state; that standing armies, in time of peace, should be avoided as dangerous to liberty; and that in all cases the military should be under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power."

Our own 2nd Amendment written by Madison was inspired in part by this section of the Virginia Declaration of rights. Madison really took it one step farther when he added the individual's right to keep and bear arms.

I'm grateful for a founding generation that understood so personally what it meant to put off a tyrannical government and preserve liberty...

I hope you enjoy your Sabbath day remembering the many sacrifices that have been made to make and keep America Great!

Cheers,

Jacob Paulsen

Remember the past and claim your rights whenever they are threatened by the PTB.

James Madison was the father of the U.S. Constitution. And when a majority of the delegates at the Constitutional Convention refused to sign without a Bill of Rights, the first ten Amendments were added.

Excellent, thanks.

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken

Yes, Woodrow Wilson gave us the Federal Reserve, the Creature from Jekyll Island. And this country has never been the same since. ;)
