Special Guest Blogger: Thomas Jefferson

The bulk of the Declaration of Independence was written by me but the part about the second amendment, the right to bear arms, was written by James Madison and although i was initially against it, i was persuaded that no harm would come of it so left it in, nice one James, you dolt.
As well as being the third President of the United States, i was also a diplomat, lawyer, architect, philosopher and Founding Father and urged the American colonists to break from the Kingdom of Great Britain and form a new nation and set about producing formative documents showing what an America independent of Britain could do such as take back control of our laws, borders, money and not have to drink their pissy weak tea anymore. 
I also organised the Louisiana Purchase which almost doubled the country's territory, striking a bargain with the French that in return for a fifteen million dollar cheque, the United States would acquire a total of 828,000 sq mi (2,140,000 km2 or 530,000,000 acres) of prime arable land.
That France only controlled a small fraction of this area, with most of it settled by Native Americans, wasn't really a problem as we just grabbed our muskets and forcibly removed them somewhere else.
One of my famous quotes was that 'all men are created equal' all men apart from the slaves that worked on my plantation obviously although i did see slave women as equals, especially one little cutey in particular, Sally Hemings, with who i fathered at least one child so what a happy coincidence that i also hastily wrote the fifth amendment into the Constitution so nobody knew, God Bless America.

Liber - Latin for "The Free One" said...

The Declaration of Independence is totally separate from the Bill of Rights (which includes the second amendment).

The Bill of Rights is an extension of the Constitution (which is a 1790 redo of the original governing law - the Continental Congress).

Very little of the Louisianan Purchase area was inhabited by Native Americans:
- the Natives claimed huge swaths of territory, but 99% of the land was vacant with no sign of humans, and that was before the Spanish arrived...
- the Spanish pushed most of the tribes out of the area now called Texas before the Louisiana Purchase
- the German settlers arrived in Texas circa 1850, they wrote about establishing homesteads including: building homes, building fences, plowing fields, etc. without ever seeing a Comanche or Apache for years, then having them show up one day to claim the area Comanche or Apache territory... didn't go over so well...

So, just another typical snarky, uninformed, non-humorous, leftist attack

James Madison’s post is even more snarky, uninformed and non- humorous. Gun weirdos will love it!
