The Founding Fathers were sitting around a table sometime in 1776, working on the constitution. It had been a long day. Father1: Whew! It's getting rather warm in here, isn't it? Father2: Shall I open the window? Father1: No, that's alright. I'll just take off my jacket, and roll up my sleeves. Father2: Hey, that's a good idea. Why don't we include that in the constitution? Father1: What? That we're allowed to take our jackets off and roll up our sleeves while at work? Father2: Yeah, but that doesn't sound very smooth. How about, "Everyone shall have the right to bare arms?" |
