      Basically Henry was the Trump of his time. A complete A-hole, used defamatory language to describe everyone - except himself of course, and everyone was anti-American but himself. He would've fit in quite well at Fox or as a Republican today as a talking head.

    I’m Canadian. So I went and read the second amendment. It’s SO clear that it is designed to allow states to have their own police forces and militias. It says NOTHING about an individual having the right to bear arms. “The people” doesn’t ever refer to an individual, it is the collective. I’m no constitutional scholar, but it’s not hard to figure that out.

      There is an official .gov link to the film from the US National Archives. It has been public since 1990.
