Have you ever read something, and at the end you think it hit the nail on the head? Well, that’s how we feel about this opinion piece by Judge Andrew Napolitano.
We’re not going to write much on this because we feel you need to read the opinion yourself.
If you feel strongly about personal liberty, our country’s founding principles, and how it applies to the current debates on both gun control and free speech – you must read Napolitano’s opinion piece.
Here’s a teaser:
The Federalists thought the Bill of Rights was superfluous because they argued that no American government would knowingly restrict freedom. The Anti-Federalists thought constitutional restraints were vital to the preservation of personal liberty because no government can be trusted to preserve personal liberty.
Judge Andrew Napolitano for Fox News, August 15, 2019
If that bored you, that was just a lead into why that’s relevant to things going on in Washington. Politicians on both sides of the aisle want to take away our God-given rights with Red Flag laws.
This lays out why we have our rights, as opposed to the messaging from politicians around the county. Remember, it’s WE THE PEOPLE, not “We the Government.”

ANY PERSON, regardless of position, that makes any effort to DENY THE RIGHTS of any other Citizen, deserve NO RIGHTS in their own name.
ANY vote, or effort/action to DENY the RIGHTS would be an AUTOMATIC ADMISSION OF GUILT.
There can be no “Gee, I didn’t know…” or any other excuse.
COMMON SENSE requires Common Sense.
Common Sense was Written into the Bill of Rights.
IF a politician decides he/she has the RIGHT to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, then COMMON SENSE tells us Every other person carries the SAME RIGHTS!
