Do you ever check what they're teaching kids about the Second Amendment these days?
If you have children of your own, you know the best you can hope for is that your kids are learning nothing at all about the Second Amendment in public schools. If not, you can bet our children are being told the Second Amendment is outdated, or that it's about the National Guard, or that it's otherwise meaningless in today's society. And along with that brainwashing comes indoctrination that guns are bad and gun owners are worse.
An anti-gun politician in Maine recently enlisted a group of ten-year-olds to help him draft some gun-control legislation. As you can imagine, these kids were only told one side of the story.
The kids say they spent a year researching the issue of mandatory use of trigger locks, and came to the conclusion that it would be a good thing. But in their year of research, the students never took a gun safety course, and it appears they're basing their arguments on the "research" done by anti-gun groups like Maine Citizens Against Handgun Violence. Were they ever exposed to an argument against their proposal? I doubt it, because the anti-gun side can't risk these kids being exposed to the Constitution and a dose of common sense.
If you want your kids to learn about the freedoms protected by the Second Amendment, you'd better teach them yourself. Otherwise, the anti-gunners will be more than happy to "educate" the next generation on the issue.
