Has your relationship with the Second Amendment and gun rights or control changed during or because of the coronavirus pandemic?
Live Mic host Lee Lonsberry offers his opinion on the subject and wants to know what insights listeners have to share.
Nearly 2.6 million firearms were sold in March, according to Small Arms Analytics and Forecasting, a consulting firm that tracks the firearms market. March was the busiest month ever for gun sales, even as businesses were ordered shut down in some states. |

| YES, IT HAS RE-ENFORCED MY THINKING OF HOW IMPORTANT THE 2ND ADMEND IS TO ME THAT IT ENABLES ME THE MEANS TO PROTECT MY FAMILY AND MYSELF KNOWING THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT IS UNABLE TO PROTECT US. I WILL TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY PROTECT US WITH FIREARMS AGAINST ALL ILLEGAL ACTIVITY DIRECTED AGAINST US. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
