The United States Constitution was written after the American Revolutionary War of Independence from Great Britain (April 19, 1775 – September 3, 1783). In 1787, generally and collectively speaking, authors of the United States Constitution were James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, Gouverneur Morris, William Samuel Johnson, James Wilson and Rufus King, et al.
The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, September 25, 1789: Ratified December 15, 1791 protects the individual right to possess, keep and bear arms. Bill of Rights 1791: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
Initially, Amendment II was crafted to allow American citizens to own and bear arms for the sole purpose of defending themselves against the British army if there was a return to continue the war or an invasion from other countries. However, sadly and more deadly today in modern times, many U. S. citizens and political leaders believe that having the right to own and use a military war weapon is protected by their yearly selfish and deliberate misinterpretation of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
