Ron Paul on the 2nd Amendment
Here is Ron Paul's philosophy regarding the Second Amendment from his speech to CONgress in September 1984 as he was leaving his seat after four terms:Certain individual groups, against the intent of the Constitution and the sentiments of a free society, agitate to make illegal privately owned guns used for self-defense. At the same time, they increase the power of the state whose enforcement occurs with massive increase in government guns – unconstitutionally obtained at the expense of freedom. Taking away the individual's right to own weapons of self-defense and giving unwarranted power to a police state can hardly be considered progress.Read the speech.
