What’s your position on the Second Amendment?

Published February 11th, 2025 by Anthony Constantino

I'm a big fan of the 2nd Amendment because it protects us from government tyranny which was seen as a legitimate concern over the last 8 years.

I'm worried our unions have become far too political. Especially after seeing union leaders refuse to support our corrections officers who went on strike to protest surging violence in prisons.
