It’s time for combat veterans and especially wounded combat vets to speak up at these meetings and the communist attempts to overturn the constitution that they fought for and shed blood for, to uphold their military oath to support and defend the Constitution. These vets actually EARNED these rights and made it possible for every citizen to enjoy the fruits of their sacrifice, especially the ones that gave their lives. Now to have these local tyrants take their earned rights from them should cause these vets to loudly, actively rebel against these officials that also gave oaths of office to protect the constitution. The fact they actively break their oaths and illegally attempt to take rights away is treason and they should be dealt with as traitors historically have been.
We have a right to self defense. This includes defense against ALL threats, not just criminals. Our government, and governments throughout history have proven themselves to be threats to their citizens. The founding fathers knew this and that second amendment is their gift to us in the name of defending ourselves against tyranny. On this basis alone, we have the right to have sufficient fire power to defend ourselves from whatever a government wishes to throw at us. Each encroachment should be viewed as a direct threat to our freedom and dealt with accordingly.
