Afterthought

When I was giving my speech at the Statehouse in Hartford, I was talking about the need for gun owners to become more and seriously involved.

"We all have jobs!" someone shouted from the crowd.

That's true, I acknowledged, reminding him that the handful of activists who made the rally possible, and run the grassroots groups, and lobby, and inform, and do all the hard and continuous work to lead in the defense of rights, have jobs, too.

The militia of the whole people is supposed to have jobs.

The farmers at Lexington and Concord had jobs.
