Statement in Response to Supreme Court 5-4 Ruling Today Upholding 2nd Amendment Rights

“Every American has the right to defend his/her self. Our Founders believed that; now even anti-gun extremists must accept that truth,” said Kelly Shackelford, Chief Counsel for Liberty Legal Institute, who filed a brief on behalf of former Texas Representative Suzanna Hupp whose parents and a total of 20 people were killed in a tragic gun shooting in a Texas diner in 1991.

Suzanna was unable to save her parents because restrictive gun laws banned her from bringing the handgun in her truck inside the diner.
