Dear Editor,
The time is upon us “We the People” must make our voices heard.
About 143 years ago, some folks got together and wrote the Constitution. We have made some changes. I would like everyone to read it before asking to have it changed. If you don’t vote, you no longer have the right to question those that did vote.
“We the People” have voted for some people that may not know what amendment II of the Constitution means. They need to read it.
A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of the free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed upon.  Militia means; an army composed of citizens called out on time of emergency. Infringed means; to break a law or to encroach on the rights of others.
In the 1700s, “We the people” went to war with the government that wanted to rule us. Then “we the people” wrote the constitution of the United States of America. It was supposed to make our elected people work for us. “We the People” have the rights that are in the bill but we must not let our elected people rule us.
2019 is here, the government should not be armed with guns that hold 15 rounds if they want the militia to only have guns that hold one round. Gun violation is a problem but if you use a gun in a crime, you should get 20 years on your sentence, that might help. If a person uses a gun in a gun free zone, don’t put his name out, you just make him famous.
There is a bill now to limit congress to two or three terms. “We the people” need this folks, lets work to make it happen.
