2nd and the 7th Amendment

It can be frustrating when you listen to politicians talk about the United States  Constitution.  Because , some of them seem to read only parts.   To me , the Constitution is a almost sacred document that takes care of so many things in how to run our Country.

This week President Trump signed a executive order the was meant to protect the gun rights granted in the 2nd Amendment.

Purpose:  The Second Amendment is an indispensable safeguard of security and liberty.  It has preserved the right of the American people to protect ourselves, our families, and our freedoms since the founding of our great Nation.  Because it is foundational to maintaining all other rights held by Americans, the right to keep and bear arms must not be infringed.

The language of the Second Amendment:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Now let’s look at the 7th :

In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.

Personally have always thought the 7th was clearer or at least on equal footing.   The problem is tort reformers and pro big business interests just seem to stop reading.  The right to a jury trial is regularly under attack.  Read the whole document and protect it as the foundation of American citizens rights and privileges.

If you, your family, or someone you know is in an injured through no fault of their own, it is worth taking the time to sit down and talk to an experienced law firm with success in helping people who are injured through no fault of their own. The consultations are free and it allows you to figure out what rights you have after an injury.
