Mercy Otis Warren

Mercy Otis Warren was born in Barnsbale Massechustets on September 25, 1728. She wrote plays making fun of Americans who stayed loyal to Great Britain during the American Revolution. She also wrote poems and history of the Revolution, though she received no formal schooling. She befreinded the Adams, and even talked to Abigail Adams about women's rights. Mercy Otis Warren wrote the first history of the Revolutionary War. She would know about it of course, because she was there. Mercy got her start before the war officially began because she wanted to do something to reach the common people with revolutionary ideas. John Adams liked her writing. SHe even wrote one play making fun of the British called 'The Blockheads'. She never signed her plays though, in fear of the consequences she would face if they found out about her writing them.



The Second Amendment The second amendment states the right to bear arms. “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.” are the words written in the Constitution. This meaning that we, as American citizens, have the right to have firearms for our protection, safety, and overall well-being, without being persecuted or them being stripped away from us. Without the second amendment we would not be able to protect ourselves from those who try to harm us, our family, property, or homes. If we didn't have firearms, some people may starve. A large amount of our country hunts. 12.48 million people in the US hunt. If the second amendment wasn't in effect, than they would go hungry. Now, sure, guns are dangerous weapons, not toys. And yes, the world may be a safer place, but that's because of the people who misuse them.
