Letter to the editor: Support free speech? Support right to guns, too.

After listening to the media and the public, it makes me proud of the American people who backed Jimmy Kimmel with our First Amendment of the Constitution, for our right for freedom of speech, just like I am doing now, exercising my right to freedom of speech.

One thing bothers me though: When there is a shooting, all I hear people say is, “We must do something with all the guns” — in other words, take my guns away from me and other American people. This is my and your Second Amendment right, so if you’re going to be American, support the entire Constitution. If you’re going to fly the colors, fly all the colors.

Just remember, a politician caused Kimmel to lose his job for a day or so; just think what they could do if we lost the Second Amendment. Crime, crime and more crime on law-abiding citizens.
