Скачать или смотреть Protecting the Second Amendment | Stephen P. Halbrook and Amy E. Swearer

With the many new attacks on the Second Amendment on the federal, state, and local levels, this special session examines these threats and how to protect your right to self-defense. Indeed, the Democratic Party’s major candidates for nomination for President are unanimous in their agreement that your constitutional right to own and bear arms should be radically reduced, and in many cases, completely eliminated. In response, Stephen P. Halbrook (Senior Fellow, Independent Institute) and Amy E. Swearer (Senior Legal Policy Analyst, Heritage Foundation) discuss "Protecting the Second Amendment" (2/27/20) at the Conservative Policy Action Conference (CPAC), in the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center, National Harbor, MD. The session is moderated by Jonathan Hofer (Research and Marketing Associate, Independent Institute)
