JEB BRADLEY COMMENTS ON SUPREME COURT RULING REGARDING THE 2ND AMENDMENT

Wolfeboro, NH  “The Supreme Court Ruling today solidifies what most Americans already knew…that our founders, in creating the Constitution and the foundation for this nation, believed in individual rights, including the right to protect oneself. The 2nd Amendment of the Constitution is clear: law abiding Americans have the right to keep and bear arms. In their wisdom, our founders understood that government, if left with too much control, would remove the rights of the individual. Therefore the 2nd Amendment protects individual liberties from being infringed upon. Today’s ruling by the Supreme Court confirms our rights as Americans guaranteed by our Constitution.
