Glover claims the 2nd amendment was instituted to protect slavery. Ben Swann disagrees.
I think Swann gives a nice solid refutation of Glover's unfounded and unsupported take on history. For more on the subject of minorities and the Right to arms, might I suggest watching No Guns For Negroes from the fine folks over at JPFO, as well as No Guns For Jews. I'll embed them in the extended entry for your convenience.
And while you're at it, you might as well read (or re-read) Jew Without A Gun by Robert Avrech and Laws Designed to Disarm Slaves, Freed-men and African-Americans and Richard Poe's The Disarming of Black America.
