The Second Amendment is one that guarantees the right for every American to keep and bear arms to protect themselves from foreign invasion and even from the government itself. This 2nd Amendment 1789 Skull Patch Small reflects this right. The exact wording of the amendment is as follows: 'A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed'. This is what was ratified into the Constitution when the United States was founded in 1789. This amendment is important to help make sure that the people always have the right to defend themselves.
This Gun Rights Patch itself is a four inch circular design made from plain black twill with silver embroidered edges. In bold silver letters across the top of the circle are the words '2ND AMENDMENT'. On either side of this are silver stars, and then at the bottom is the phrase 'American's Original Homeland Security', also in silver (although not as thick). In the dead center of the patch is a skeleton with two guns crossing in his mouth. The year that the second amendment was ratified '1789' is between these two guns underneath the skull. It makes a very clear statement.
The patch is coated with a special adhesive that melts when heated, which means that if you want to put it on many different clothing or fabric items, all you need is an iron. However, if you plan to attach it to leather, you will want to sew it on instead. The reason for this is that the heat can cause the leather to pucker or get discolored. However, it is easy to attach the patch by sewing it on. Just be sure to go around the edges.
