The Right to Keep and Bear Arms is Fundamental to Our Liberty

Of all the rights enumerated by our Founders, the right to bear arms is surely one of the most vital and must be protected.  Texans know best when it comes to defending our inalienable Second Amendment rights and as a State Representative, ensuring this fundamental liberty remains intact will be one of my highest priorities.

Furthermore, our Second Amendment right is not merely about hunting or sport shooting, it is to protect all of the citizens of our country from an out-of-control government.

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. -Thomas Jefferson

I hold both a Concealed Handgun License (CHL) and a Federal Firearms License (FFL).  My FFL allows me to buy and sell guns through my small firearms dealership, and I endeavor to inspire and inform citizens of their inalienable right to protect themselves and their property, and their personal responsibility to do so.  I don’t just talk about my Second Amendment right, I live it.
