Is it true that no “Right” is absolute?

Joe Biden has said over and over that no “Right” is absolute!                  Our forefathers did not believe that!

 

Thomas Jefferson said the Constitution of most states (and the United States) asserts that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.” June 5, 1824

 

George Washington, who led America to victory in the war for independence said, “A free people ought not only be armed, but disciplined…”  January 8, 1790

 

Sam Adams, who was a leader of the Sons of Liberty, said, “The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from their own arms.” 1788

 

“This may be considered as the true palladium of Liberty…The right of self-defense is the first law of nature.”  St. George Tucker 1803

James Madison, the Father of the Constitution, said, “The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and the most natural defense of a free country.”

 

The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution is one of the Bill of Rights which secures for every American the “Right” to bear arms. States do not have rights, they have power. Only individuals have rights. This right of the people shall not be infringed!
