While referring to the first Ten Amendments as the Bill of Rights, some scholars rightfully claim these to be “brakes” on the power of the Federal Government.
I think that at the start of ww2 there may have been a desire to violate the third amendment. (But then, If you gave a company a pile of raw materials they could mostly build a barracks themselves. )
I’ve read that the average age of a draftee was 26, which makes sense as 26 is the average of 18 and 34. In a group of 130 or so draftees you would have guys with years of experience in construction and other trades, so I think that’s how they solved the housing crisis. But at the start they had so many coming in it must have seemed like a real problem. Incidentally, the European resistance groups had many
Skilled trades in them, allowing them to do things like installing large pipes as weapons and ammo storage in the basements of buildings, hiding things in woodwork and etc. Sort of off topic. Fake drains were another one. I think the US military was over 10 million in ww2, a lot of housing.
How Blue States Work Around SCOTUS to Restrict Gun Rights
“Know that you will be arrested, there will be charges filed against you, it doesn't matter if you did it in self-defense or not. This is the state we live in,” Mr. Edelman said.
The 2A is a protection against government, so if you give them the power to control weapons it's letting the fox guard the hen house. It's important for individuals as well as the state's National Guard. The feds have been chipping away at the protection of the National Guard for some time, partly by seeing that the Guards have only sufficient ammo for target practice. The 2A is something that either hits you at a gut level, or not.
Sounds like an idea. After firearms knives are next. But they would just keep going down the line. Once you’re a dictator you can’t stop trying to shore up your position. Have you seen my essay Things Not Taught in School?
That was a detailed easily understandable explanation of the Bill of Rights and its origins. Well done Frederick!

Interesting comment. Would like to hear more.

They want to eliminate the right of self defense entirely. It would make people easier to control.
There are so many ways other than firearms to defend oneself. Martial arts come to mind. Will that be next on the hit list?

Yes, it is mind boggling!
Sent your essay to older grand daughter who is doing a school assignment on the Bill of Rights.
It is an honor!
It’s a nice synopsis and I thought it would help with her homework.
