George Mason refused to sign the Constitution because it did not include a Bill of Rights, as can be seen at the end of this really good movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Vs5anM_LVU

George Mason refused to sign the Constitution because it did not include a Bill of Rights

So did New York Governor George Clinton, who seems to have fallen through the cracks of history for some reason. I think the Hollywood treatment of the founding generation has neglected the contribution of many important figures.

James Madison insisted that the Second Amendment be in The Bill of Rights.

It’s not that the other Founders were against fire arms ownership, they just felt it was a given.

But Madison insisted it be included so that no one could have ever disputed that fire arms ownership was not a right.

Thank God for “Little Jim’’.
