I tell the to start with the Constitution 101. I mean how many times did all of us raise the right hand but really had no idea what it says.

The 2A is the long pole in the tent and the Constitution is in the way of those who wish to change this country.

We have to win the political war at the local level to win the overall war. So lets arm ourselves correctly.
Good sources given that I question what (if any) Civics is taught in schools today.

The Federalist Papers are also a must read in order to place the issues associated with the content of the Constitution into the context of the period. It becomes much easier to understand the why, and also to understand the current day relevance and applicability.
