How much longer can we survive with a corrupt press monopoly?

There is a reason that the founders put the freedom of the press Number 1 on the list of amendments. And what is happening now is the reason that they put the right to bear arms at Number 2.

Well, no. Kinda.

The Founders didn’t “put” the amendments in the order they are; the states did. Amendment #2 (RKBA) was merely adopted after the states adopted #1.

Nonetheless, it still shows the high importance they placed on #2. ;)
