Summary

Mark Koernke and Donald Betcher hosted Doug Hudson, author of 'How Government Disarmed Citizens,' to discuss the historical and constitutional foundations of the Second Amendment, government corruption, and the incremental erosion of citizens' rights through taxation, licensing schemes, and regulatory control. The hosts and guest examined how government agencies operate as privateering operations under admiralty law, traced the pattern of gun confiscation throughout history (including Britain's seizure of American-donated firearms after World War II), and argued against compromise on constitutional rights. They emphasized that the founding fathers understood government tyranny and that citizens must remain vigilant and armed to preserve liberty.
