text: There they go again as liberals know no shame. When the federalists gave Patrick Henry a congressional chair to draft the constitution he turned down this power stating: "I SMELL A RAT!" When the federalists penned a constitution that omitted a Bill of Rights we saw the rats Henry smelled. it was Henry who drafted 40 amendments in the form of a Bill of Rights, rallied the antifederalists, and in the end Henry won us 25 of the 40. Henry, the author of the 2nd amendment, warned us that the tyrannical scum amongst us will come after each of these rights, and they will all stand on their own merits save one, the 2nd amendment. Henry warned if these rats got the one they get them all, and warned us to guard the 2nd amendment as if our lives depended on it.  Leo Quirk op-ed letter is pure deluded drivel, and one of the rats Patrick Henry smelled.
