“The men who wrote the second amendment did not just finish a hunting trip…”

“The men who wrote the second amendment did not just finish a hunting trip. They just finished liberating a nation” is a saying that has been printed on many images. The is, the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution—the right to bear arms—wasn’t intended to protect gun ownership for hunting animals.
         
“Just read this.  The men who wrote The Second Amendment did not just finish a hunting trip. They just finished liberating a nation” was posted on Twitter by Danny Coulson on December 5, 2018. “THE MEN WHO WROTE
THE SECOND AMENDMENT DID NOT JUST FINISH A HUNTING TRIP. THEY JUST FINISHED LIBERATING A NATION” (shown on an image) was posted on Facebook by Being Libertarian on December 9, 2018. It’s not known who originated the saying.
 
   
Wikipedia: Second Amendment to the United States Constitution
The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution protects the right to keep and bear arms. It was ratified on December 15, 1791, along with nine other articles of the Bill of Rights. In District of Columbia v. Heller (2008), the Supreme Court affirmed for the first time that the right belongs to individuals, for self-defense in the home, while also including, as dicta, that the right is not unlimited and does not preclude the existence of certain long-standing prohibitions such as those forbidding “the possession of firearms by felons and the mentally ill” or restrictions on “the carrying of dangerous and unusual weapons”. In McDonald v. City of Chicago (2010) the Supreme Court ruled that state and local governments are limited to the same extent as the federal government from infringing upon this right. New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen (2022) assured the right to carry weapons in public spaces with reasonable exceptions.
