Title II Of The 1964 Civil Rights Act - This Is What Rand Paul (R) Opposes

(a)All persons shall be entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, and accommodations of any place of public accommodation, as defined in this section, without discrimination on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin.

The Second Amendment was not enacted by our Founding Fathers to allow people to hunt, or to be party of any government force. Rather, it was put in place to allow individuals to own and possess firearms to protect life, liberty and property.

The Supreme Court started down the path of reaffirming the individual right to gun ownership in America in it’s landmark District of Columbia v. Heller decision. The limitation of this case, however, is that it only applied to so-called ‘federal enclaves’ and not to the individual states.

First, let me state that it is a sure sign of how far our country has gone off track that we even have to consider whether or not states can limit our Second Amendment rights. Liberty, the very foundation of our country, has been slowly eroded out from under us, and this is a prime example.

It’s why I’m running for Senate this year. It’s time defenders of Liberty and the Constitution fought back.

Today, the Supreme Court hears a case that can strike a blow for freedom and the Second amendment rights of all Americans as they hear oral arguments in McDonald v. Chicago.

This case would make clear that states may not abridge the Second Amendment rights of their citizens. I applaud those who have fought for this case, as well as all of those who fight daily for our gun rights.

I am a gun owner and defender of Second Amendment rights. I’m an outspoken opponent of gun control, will fight all attempts at gun control in the U.S. Senate, and my candidacy has been endorsed by the Gun Owners of America.

Many candidates only pay lip service to our gun rights, but I pledge to the people of Kentucky to truly fight for them.
