    Second Amendment Essay
    I have to write a paper on the original intent of the second amendment. Once I get going on a paper, I'm usually pretty good. But I have no idea where to start. What time should I start looking into the history of the firearms issue? Are there any specific events I should be sure to include? Are there any history buffs or teachers on here that can give me tips on where I should start? Please and thank you!
