When it comes to 2nd Amendment patches, you'll find some very interesting sayings. One of these is on the Tried by 12 Carried By 6 Patch. It states that "I would rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6". At first, this is a somewhat confusing statement, and you may have to explain it to people who see this patch. Once you make it clear what it means, though, they'll get it.
So what does it mean? This patch is saying that you'd rather be tried by a jury of 12 after shooting someone than being carried by six pallbearers at your funeral. Shooting someone in self-defense may mean you have to go in front of a jury of your peers, but the chances of you being found guilty is fairly low, especially if you can show that you acted to protect your home. The next time someone asks you why you support the Second Amendment and want to carry a gun, just explain this to them. If they'd rather be carried by six than tried by 12, well, just let them know you'll be at their funeral.
This patch features two white guns on either side of white text. It measures 3.25 by 1.75 inches, so it's actually not that large. The patch is embroidered and can be sewn or ironed on. If you want to resell patches or are looking to buy multiples of this patch as a gift, it's also available as a wholesale patch.
