Hanes Gray Sweatshirt Size Large with Thomas Jefferson on Virginia Constitution

I don't throw that word around, btw. This Hanes tag is from the mid-1990's, you can research it yourself if you'd like (I've lost 20 minutes of my life learning the history of Hanes tags.) However, this shirt looks completely unworn. I suspect it was found after someone's passing and donated. But the inside isn't even pilled yet, which happens pretty much immediately. Here's the skinny on the quote from one source, although the controversy over who should get credit for the quote is pretty interesting. At any rate, if you're a believer in the right to bear arms, this is a great way to show it. This sentence comes from Thomas Jefferson's three drafts of the Virginia Constitution. The text varies slightly from the first draft to the subsequent drafts: First Draft: "No freeman shall ever be debarred the use of arms."[1] Second Draft: "No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms [within his own lands or tenements]."[2] Third Draft: "No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms [within his own lands or tenements]"[3] This sentence does not appear in the Virginia Constitution as adopted. Note: This sentence "No freeman shall ever be debarred..." is often seen paired with the following: "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." The latter sentence does not appear in the Virginia Constitution drafts or text as adopted, nor in any other known Jefferson writings.
