For Self-defense, Against Tyranny

In Defense of the Second Amendment, by Larry Correia, Washington, D.C.: Regnery Publishing, 2023, 224 pages, hardcover.

It can be expressed with formal language or simply. Regardless, the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides, explicitly, that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” As the Founding Fathers recognized, a government that does not trust its law-abiding, taxpaying citizens with the means of self-defense is not worthy of trust. Disarming such citizens proclaims that the government is the master, not the servant, of the people. 

Also mindful of this, author Larry Correia takes the direct route. His prose about firearms is plainspoken, sometimes indelicate, often cutting, even as it is cogent and candid.
