Meanwhile, in the House of Representatives, a debate on the availability of gun silencers scheduled Wednesday afternoon was delayed after the shooting.
As the heated debated centered on Second Amendment rights intensifies once again, one of Sen. Paul’s own tweets resurfaced—one that some suggest smacks of hypocrisy, given his press statements.
In June last year, the Republican appeared to quote Fox News contributor Judge Napolitano on Twitter, which said: “[We] have a Second Amendment … to shoot at the government when it becomes tyrannical!” |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
