Historical Quote Of The Week

This week's historical quote comes from relatively recent times. It is by Mickey Kaus who is a journalist and pundit writing for The Daily Caller. In 2010, he was also a Democratic candidate for the US Senate from California opposing Barbara Boxer (D-Ca).

"[I]f liberals interpreted the Second Amendment the way they interpreted the rest of the Bill of Rights, there would be law professors arguing that gun ownership is mandatory."

Kaus, Mickey, qtd. in Kinsley, Michael. "Slicing Up The Second Amendment." The Washington Post 8 Feb. 1990: A25. Print.
