The Right to Bear Arms



In a campaign comment last year, candidate Barack Obama, lamented his limited ability to win over working class voters claiming they are inwardly bitter about declining circumstances and cling to their guns and bibles. It was one of many disparaging comments aimed at white American citizens.

In Obama's utopian worldview of America, certainly the guns would not exist and it seems most if not all of the Bibles would disappear also.

Fortunately for Americans, the First Ammendment to the Constitution still protects our rights to worship despite ruinous Supreme Court decisions to water down that Ammendment.

And the Second Ammendment protects our rights to bear arms to defend ourselves, again, despite the efforts of anti-constitutionalists to remove that right.

But remember: rights not exercised and defended are rights lost.
