Idaho Homeschoolers Take Second Amendment Seriously

Fox News just did a piece on two Idaho homeschool students who are doing what it takes to help people remember that an armed, moral society is better than a relatively disarmed, immoral one. One student has a rifle in the back of his pickup. The other packs a pistol. They both know what it means to defend law and order and how an immediate deterrant is more effective than all the gas chambers and electric chairs in the world.

Back in the 80s, I remember a very good slogan, and its logic and honesty helped preserved the US Constitution's Second Amendment. It said, "When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns." Would shootings still happen? Maybe, but because the odds are evened up by an armed populace, a shooting would involve far fewer victims and more citizens protecting themselves. I'm not saying the Second Amendment will save our society. It simply provides a framework that empowers the individual and allows them to do as they see fit.

We have no government armed in power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.

-- John Adams

For America to be truly great once again, this "religious and moral people" needs to return to it's roots and it's religion. Then we will be worthy of our freedoms.
