I’m ashamed to admit that I had no idea that the man behind the landmark case was black. Furthermore, while his contribution to gun rights is commendable, I think it’s a shame that the rest of his accomplishments detailed in this article most likely go unappreciated by a vast majority of people. This is the American history they need to teach in schools.

Those who lived in states with restrictive gun laws, laws that were changed because of the McDonald decision owe Mr McDonald a great deal. I am fortunate enough to live in a state that doesn’t have that ridiculous over-reach, Idaho. I sometimes travel to California, a state that still have extremely restrictive laws. I thank the Lord that I have never had a serious problem there, because, as a law-abiding citizen, I do not carry there. Maybe some day, a Californian as brave as Otis will bring that state into line.

Great article. I especially liked his comparison to the slave codes, and how African Americans were disarmed by those that did not want us to be able to protect ourselves. We can never let our guards down.
