Library books are not covered by the 2nd amendment,

Only The first. Why is the second more important than the first?

"Only The first. Why is the second more important than the first?"

Actually, library books are not even mentioned in the first amendment, and from where our society has advanced to, provide no real function. Almost everything is on line or available at Barns and Nobel. If they were not publicly financed, they would all shut down.

The 2nd amendment however does speak specifically to firearms, and many of us believe that this was included to assure that our republic stayed together.

Think of it as "checks and balances" on government...
