We ran across this quote from Jeb!…

…in a New York Times editorial this morning—addressing a National Rifle Association convention in 2003 he "exuberantly declared [the Times words there]:

“The sound of our guns is the sound of freedom!” 

Meanwhile, this piece from The Atlantic, about the history of the Second Amendment, is well worth reading:

The Misguided Second Amendment Interpretations of Justices Scalia and Thomas - The Atlantic

" The history of the Second Amendment…supports a robust public power to regulate guns for reasons of public safety."
