The Right To Keep And Bear Arms
Author : Wendy Moyer
The second amendment to the United States Constitution was adopted on December 15, 1791 and is part of the United States Bill of Rights. It protects your right to keep and bear arms.
The initial proposed passage that related to arms was penned by James Madison and brought to the floor of the House of Representatives during the first session of Congress, on June 8, 1789. This is how it read:
"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed; a well armed and well regulated militia being the best security of a free country but no person religiously scrupulous of bearing arms shall be compelled to render military service in person."
It went through a number of iterations and on September 21, 1789 the House voted to accept changes made by the Senate. When the amendment was ultimately entered into the House journal it read as:
"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."
Today millions of people own guns. Along with the ownership comes responsibility. Because they are potentially deadly weapons, guns must be safely and responsibly stored. There are a number of ways to secure firearms in order to prevent their theft or misuse by children.
The best option, bar none, would be to buy and store your firearms in a gun safe. Because every city or state might impose their own specific gun liability and storage laws, all gun owners should make it their responsibility to know, understand, and follow those laws.
With that being said, the best option a gun owner could take in order to prevent unauthorized access and theft is to buy and use a large gun safe. That's because large gun safes, which can weigh five hundred pounds or more, are anchored to the floor and are designed to stop both common burglars as well as skilled safe crackers from breaking into them.
Large gun safes can often accommodate twenty or more long guns along with several dozen hand guns, accessories, and ammunition. These fire resistant safes often offer up to two hours of protection should there be a fire, even if it's 1,300 degrees or more.
And a variety of locks, which range from biometric (fingerprint) locks to keys and/or high quality combination locks, are available.
If you are looking for a gun safe, probably the best advice would be to buy a bigger gun safe than you think that you need. That's because you probably are going to want to acquire more guns in the future. And you can also use the extra space to keep your passports, jewelry, and other important papers safe and sound.
