Two Checks on Tyranny

Jacob Hornberger, "While all of the rights and guarantees enumerated in the Bill of Rights — as well as those that were not enumerated — are critically important to a free society, it is worth noting that two rights — one fundamental and one procedural — are intended to provide the citizenry with a means to resist federal tyranny should such ever befall our land. These two rights are the right to keep and bear arms and the right to trial by jury. The gun right is found in the Second Amendment and the jury right is contained in the Sixth Amendment."
