Paul Nehlen DESTROYS GOP Party Traitor Paul Ryan on Gun Rights

Paul Nehlen, the all-American successful businessman who is fighting to take down The Speaker of the House, is running a successful insurgent campaign to restore American borders and American jobs.

His approach is bold, strong, and 100 percent America-centric. That means he is fighting for you and your interests, not the needs and wants of big money globalists and open border billionaires.

Mr. Nehlen beats Paul Ryan on every issue – from jobs, borders, refugees, illegals, and the second amendment.

In this powerful piece that strikes at the heart of our American heritage, Mr. Nehlen harkens back to the very spirit with which our founders built this great country, and he reminds us of how fragile those rights truly are at a time in America when government overreach has become the norm.

          THE 2ND AMENDMENT

Who gets to determine the value of your life?

It’s the most important question that you can ask.

All Individuals Are Created Equal

The Founders asserted that we were all created equal by God in our individual right to be free.

If we agree with them, then, as law-abiding citizens, we shouldn’t have to ask permission from government to defend the things that make us free individuals—our unalienable rights to life, liberty, and any other property we might honestly acquire.

So, in order to access valuable tools that enable you to protect and defend your rights, you shouldn’t need anything more than the 2nd Amendment, regardless of what state you live in. In fact, the 2nd Amendment is crystal clear: “[T]he right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

That doesn’t mean “do not infringe in a few states.” That means do not infringe anywhere within the boundaries of the United States.

Government Continually Infringes Anyway

For decades, the Feds have eroded our 2nd Amendment rights. The National Firearms Act of 1934, the Gun Control Act of 1968, the government’s current regulatory war on lead—these are just three of many prominent avenues by which government has worked to restrict your access to tools that allow you to protect the most important things you have—again, your life, your liberty, and your property.

Elitists in Washington continually muddy the issue. They talk about whether it’s safe to allow citizens to own firearms, which citizens should or should not have firearms, and where firearms should and shouldn’t be allowed.

But Remember that Central Question…

Who gets to determine the value of your life?

You and God…? Or government?

Are there other questions worth considering? Sure.

For example, what happens when you need help and the police are 10 or 30 or more minutes away? A criminal can take seconds to change your life forever or just extinguish it completely.

But to be very clear, the 2nd Amendment is, first and foremost, about containing the totalitarian impulses of government.

Because Government Is Ultimately Force, Not Your Friend

Government’s tendency to exercise excessive power over the lives of individuals is the rule, not the exception. More than one modern society has unwittingly made the mistake of giving government too much authority, only to watch citizens be silenced, disarmed, persecuted, wrongly imprisoned, and even killed en masse. The former U.S.S.R., Cambodia, Nazi Germany, North Korea, China, Cuba, Chile under Pinochet, Turkey’s slaughter of Armenians—the list is virtually endless.

Think it can’t happen here? It can, and it has. John Adams’ imprisonment of citizens under the Sedition Act, the Fugitive Slave Act, Woodrow Wilson’s goon squads, FDR’s Japanese internment camps, and current mass surveillance of law-abiding citizens—these are just a few instances in which the U.S. government has turned on its own citizens—and those it should have been treating as citizens but didn’t.

The more government insists on ‘protecting’ you by restricting your access to firearms, the more likely it is to rob you of your rights, downgrade the value of your life, compromise your liberty, and leave you vulnerable to its often dangerous and unconstitutional whims.

Not if I have anything to say about it.

We can and should take solid practical steps

Restoring and strengthening our 2nd Amendment rights starts by continually returning to that central question and making sure that the government is increasingly in pursuance of the Constitution on these matters, not in violation of it.

For example, there are current efforts by some in Washington to ensure that if you have a concealed-carry permit in one state, it would be valid in any state. I support those efforts. We also need to chip away at existing, unconstitutional laws that infringe on the 2nd Amendment—laws that should never have gone on the books in the first place, a handful of which I’ve already mentioned.

We won’t get back to where we need to be overnight. But the 2nd Amendment is a matter on which I refuse to compromise.
