i find myself tormented every day with the thought that more assaults on the second amendment and the constitution are inevitable. I look to history for some answers, because humans seem to repeat the same errors over time.
I wonder if some of you civil war historians could tell me if the southern confederacy had embraced the constitution as is, changed it, or drew up a new one. Being from a northern state, I was taught that the south was in the wrong in the war, I feel this is an unjust opinion. States Rights were severely damaged in this war, Democracy (mob rule) beat out the Republic government the founders had envisioned.
If we can keep the subject of slavery out of this, fine. The industrial revolution caused some of the same inhumanities.
I feel we are headed for some rough times, the economy and Mexican problem will be an excuse for a back-door attack on our libertys, not only our rights.
Democracy passes into despotism.-PLATO
