No majority has a right to deprive them of - Second Amendment

 The “free” press might remember that when they write about issues such as gun control.

Founders’ Quote Daily

“The whole of that Bill [of Rights] is a declaration of the
right of the people at large or considered as individuals…[I]t
establishes some rights of the individual as unalienable and
which consequently, no majority has a right to deprive them of.”

– Albert Gallatin (letter to Alexander Addison, 7 October 1789)
