"What, Sir, is the use of a militia?  It is to prevent the establishment of  a standing army, the bane of liberty.... Whenever Governments mean to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they  always attempt to destroy the  militia,  in  order to raise an army upon their ruins."
-- Rep.  Elbridge  Gerry  of Massachusetts,  spoken during floor  debate  over  the Second  Amendment  [I Annals of Congress at 750 {August 17, 1789}]
