But when black people were no longer slaves and considered property by law, isn't it gospel that the first "gun control" laws were written in the south as part of Jim Crow? That has always been my understanding. In fact, I have read that while the laws were written generally to apply to all people (wink, wink, nudge, nudge), they were only enforced against black people.JP171 wrote:actually both of those schools of thought are incorrect. The second ammendment was written as an affirmation of a right that superceded any government (god given for those that believe) The laws written that coverd other things such as slaves ( black or white) were not considered free men and therefore property and property cannot own property. so see where this is going?
