Every American has the right to keep and bear arms. We affirm our support for the second amendment of the US Constitution.
All people, regardless of position in the public or private sector, should be held equally accountable under the law.
The *only* litmus test for Supreme Court or other judges should be their determination to accurately interpret, not amend, the Constitution. Judges have *no* authority to make new law.
