We^ generally assume that without 2A there isn’t 1A. But without 1A there won’t be any 2A. The order in the Bill of Rights truly matters. The degradation of 1A in America, however, is terrifying, especially the freedom of speech and the right to assemble. They are wholly diminished in all aspects of personal and social life. We^ need more 2A supporters to understand the crucial need of 1A and be much more vocal about 1A—a lot more.

^ freedom-lovers, common-sense people.
