"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

It's worth noting that the founders of our nation failed to protect our fundamental right to bear arms. The 13 new states largely refused to ratify the new constitution and republic until assurances were guaranteed that the matter and other amendments would be added. It is known as our 'Bill of Rights'. Statists have long sought to use the statutes to curtail 2nd amendment rights.
Now the woman risks never being able to lawfully carry her personal arms ever again. |

She said the men left and the victim staggered into a vehicle and was driven away. "I've never done anything like that in my whole life. When I got into the car, I was just shaking, thinking what was that? I started praying, God, what was this about?" she said. She left and police pulled her over a few blocks. She does not have a permit for the gun. Police took her to jail for felony possession of a firearm, and misdemeanors, shooting a firearm in public and reckless handling of a firearm. Her friends have told her she should've just left, but Mary said she was afraid the girl would be dead by the time officers got there. "I thought, 'what if it was my child, I would want someone to take the chance and get involved, then walk away and say, I don't want to be dirtied by this situation,'" she said. Hill said she never intended to hurt anyone. Police say it was still reckless. They said you can't shoot off a gun into the air in your own yard, let alone at a business, in a busy part of town. |
