The right to self-defense is one of man’s most basic natural rights. The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution says no law shall be made to infringe on the “right to bear arms”. Four States currently allow law-abiding citizens to carry concealed weapons without a permit; these are called “Constitutional Carry” states. These States allow citizens to protect themselves and their families from criminals by not restricting their right to self-defense.

The Federal Government has instituted a new educational program called Common Core while attaching Federal Education dollars to those states who implement it. This program is based upon “teaching to the test” and indoctrinating students rather than teaching the skill of critical thinking and the importance of self government. Not only does it “dumb down” our educational system, but it unconstitutionally takes educational responsibility away from the State and County School System and most importantly the Parents.
