Wikiquotes Founding Father's pro-gun quotes

Here the page for the unusually named Tench Coxe, a delegate for Pennsylvania to the Continental Congress, who wrote many pro-gun articles to the Pennsylvania Gazette. My favorite:

Whereas civil rulers, not having their duty to the people duly before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms.
