Freedom from Fear: Why the 1st Amendment Trumps the 2nd Amendment

Freedom from Fear:

David Sirota (of Openleft.com fame) lays out the case against firearms at political rallies. Very insightful. Mentions the order of the amendments as well as the purpose behind the 1st Amendment--to protect citizens from fear of tyranny. My favorite quote: "the gun has been transformed from a sport and self-defense device into a tool of mass bullying".
