Second Amendment protects our rights

With the left’s anti-everything movement working overtime, Americans are left with one very important decision, whether or not to arm themselves. We’ve seen the damage left-wing Democrats have done to this country, and it’s foolish to ignore the fact that now, more than ever, there’s a genuine need for law-abiding citizens to arm themselves, in public, and at home.

Thanks to Obama’s “keep teens out of jail” program, the very same program that prevented the Broward County Sheriff’s Department from acting on 45 complaints filed against Nikolas Cruz, the lives of 17 people at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, came to an abrupt end. There’s no way of knowing how many sheriff’s departments participated in Obama’s lives for dollars program.

It’s frustrating to see the same people in the local newspaper under indictment again for the same crimes committed a short time ago. I’m not sure what happened to the “three strikes and you’re out law,” but it needs to be reinstated and enforced without impunity. As long as there’s a single breath of life left in liberalism, there will never be sensible law enforcement or jurisprudence within our judicial system.

The incident at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school was not a failure of the NICS, but rather a failure of a handful of people who failed to do their job protecting public safety. Had the FBI and the Broward County Sheriff’s Department done their job, the 17 people murdered by Nikolas Cruz would still be alive today. We can’t blame the NRA, the National Instant Check System, or private citizens who own AR-15’s.

Trump is working to right the many wrongs created by left-wing Democrats who have worked day and night to destroy the Constitution. The easily understood and most misrepresented amendment in the Constitution is the Second Amendment. It reads: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a Free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

Our only security resides in the Second Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms. Destroy the Second Amendment, and you destroy the entire Constitution, for it’s the guardian of all other amendments. Without guns, we are a defenseless society of sheep subject to the whims of a rouge government. Is that really were you’d like to be? I urge you to support the Second Amendment and the NRA.

Protect your constitutional right to keep and bear arms. May God richly bless and watch over the United States of America.
