Back in 1776.
The Founding Fathers were sitting around a table sometime in 1776, working on the constitution.
It had been a long day.
Father 1: Whew! It's getting rather warm in here, isn't it?
Father 2: Shall I open the window?
Father 1: No, that's alright. I'll just take off my jacket, and roll up my sleeves.
Father 2: Hey, that's a good idea. Why don't we include that in the constitution?
Father 1: What? That we're allowed to take our jackets off and roll up our
sleeves while at work?
Father 2: Yeah, but that doesn't sound very smooth.
How about "Everyone shall have the right to bare arms?"

Sounds better than BEAR arms!

Having bear arms would make nail clipping a real bugger.
