A Vision For Governance:In the context of today's socio-economic challenges, I propose a series of reforms to redistribute power and responsibility back to the citizens. These reforms aim to empower communities, minimize governmental overreach, and restore power to the people, cultivating a society where responsibility, integrity, and common sense are paramount.Firearms Policy:"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 is self-evident that any law(s) that restrict or prohibit the people's use or choice of firearms is against the United States Constitution. Therefore, I propose:All firearms, including military-grade weapons, should be made and easily accessible for the American citizenry through the purchase of fair market value of the free market without any licensing requirement other than a simple criminal background check of a committed felony.As Americans, we shouldn't be held to ask for government permission to conceal carry, and it should be legal to open carry in all territories and states of the United States of America, since this is technically an infringement of the 2nd Amendment.It is the duty of the citizens of the United States to keep informed and educated in the proper use and handling of their firearms. These serve as an extension to protect Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness for a person's Family and Property.The citizenry are responsible for their own safety and are the first responders to their own well-being should any event take place that jeopardizes their health and safety. Therefore, all owned firearms should be kept at the ready for a minute's notice. This serves as a deterrent: No foreign nation would invade the United States either in times of war or peace, especially if it's an armed society. This would deter most crime or foreign militaries.The only time a citizen is forbidden and forfeits their right from the use, ownership, or carry of a firearm is if they have been convicted of a felony. However, even if a criminal acquires a firearm either illegally or manufactures it themselves, an armed citizen, as mentioned, is responsible for their own safety of life and property.If the intent is to cause harm, citizens have the responsibility to act in protecting themselves. This would deter most criminal activity; however, not all criminals would be deterred. This is human nature.Even if military-grade weapons are made easily and readily available to citizens through the free market, most citizens would not carry anything other than a rifle at most, due to circumstances or feasibility.#2ndAmendment #GunRights#FirearmsPolicy #ConstitutionalRights#SelfDefense #RightToBearArms#GunOwnership #ArmedCitizenry#Liberty #Freedom #PersonalResponsibility#GovernmentReform#CommunityEmpowerment#Militia #OpenCarry#ConcealedCarry#CriminalBackgroundCheck#CrimeDeterrence #NationalSovereignty
