Description
The 2nd Amendment was written when America was young. It was mostly unchartered and hostile with no law enforcement officers people had to defend themselves from wild animals, bandits, hostile natives, the British. They had to fend for themselves, hunt for food and protect their families. I don't think the authors of the constitution intended for mentally unstable teenagers to be allowed to get their hands on assault rifles and shoot at school children.
I wanted my painting to convey the feeling that buying a gun was as easy as picking up the groceries, hence the shop front full of supermarket style 'offers'. The items on the ground represent slang words for various pieces of ordnance: Shells, slugs, caps, bazooka and pineapple( grenade ).
