Tim Michels on Gun Control

2004 former Republican Senate Challenger

2nd Amendment give you the right to defend your family

Responsible citizens deserve the right to protect themselves and their families. It's a guarantee promised to us by the 2nd Amendment. Some people, however, don't share our beliefs. They want to limit the recreational opportunities Wisconsin gives us, and they want to limit our right to own guns in direct violation of the Second Amendment. I believe that there are already too many laws that threaten our rights. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO PROTECT AND DEFEND YOUR FAMILY.
