A well-schooled electorate, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and read Books, shall not be infringed.

If you have not yet followed the good Sgt’s link, please do so, copy it and forward it to your congressman, governor, senator, and anyone else you know, particularly anti-gunners.
