Don't infringe our sacred right to keep and bear arms

"The Constitution enshrines rights granted to us not by the government, but by our Creator. Those unalienable rights must be respected. I will oppose any attempt to infringe on Americans' fundamental liberties, including our freedoms of speech and religion and our sacred right to keep and bear arms."
