The 2nd Amendment There was a time in our nation where our government was ruled by a tyrant. Where the laws were unlawful and unjust. We had taxes implemented on us without us voting or even having a say in it. Us as a nation grew up and revolted against our government, we revolted because we knew there was a better way to govern the people where everyone is free and had a say in what they wanted. The revolutionary war was our salvation from the British rule. We put our petty differences aside and came together. Many men fought and died to gain our freedom from Great Britain.
