Personal Quote from Dr. Stewart:  "When asked if carrying a concealed handgun is a denial of our belief in the sovereignty and protection of Almighty God,  I have this to say:  When a defenseless citizen is delivered by an armed defender from the dangers of an unlawful assault, the victim tends to thank Almighty God for providing the armed defender as a sort of 'Angel-Deliverer.'  I'd much rather, as the expression of God's sovereignty, be the armed defender than the vulnerable citizen!"

Supreme Court rules in favor of self-defense PDF Print E-mail
  
Monday, 28 June 2010 12:30
Today, by a 5-4 margin, the US Supreme Court affirmed the basic human right of self-defense.

"Two years ago, in District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U. S. ___ (2008), we held that the Second Amendment protects the right to keep and bear arms for the purpose of self-defense, and we struck down a District of Columbia law that banned the possession of handguns in the home.The city of Chicago (City) and the village of Oak Park, a Chicago suburb, have laws that are similar to the District of Columbia’s, but Chicago and Oak Park argue that their laws are constitutional because the Second Amendment has no application to the States. We have previously held that most of the provisions of the Bill of Rights apply with full force to both the Federal Government and the States. Applying the standard that is well established in our caselaw, we hold that the Second Amendment right is fully applicable to the States."

Nikki Goeser to appear on "Stossel", Thursday June 24 PDF Print E-mail

Tennessee SAS member Nikki Goeser will be a guest on John Stossel's Fox Business Network show this Thursday, June 24th. The program will be titled, "More Guns, Less Crime?"

Nikki lost her husband Ben to a stalker, who one night followed her and Ben into their place of work at Johnny’s Sports Bar in South Nashville,Tennessee. He walked right up to Ben and shot him point blank in the head, and then 5 more times, killing him. Being a law abiding citizen, Nikki had left her gun in her car, since firearms were at the time prohibited in establishments where alcohol was served. She didn’t stand a chance of protecting her husband. Nikki’s moving story was instrumental in getting Tennessee's right-to-carry laws changed, and she has been all over the country giving speeches and talks about her 2nd Amendment beliefs.

"More Guns, Less Crime?" will air Thursday evening, June 24th, at 9 PM and midnight eastern (8 PM and 11 PM central) and on the Fox Business Network. Please check the Stossel home page for other air times and follow-up discussion.
 
Knife Bans Repealed in New Hampshire PDF Print E-mail
  
Sunday, 23 May 2010 21:24

On Tuesday May 18, New Hampshire Governor John Lynch signed into law a bill which decriminalized the purchase and ownership of certain types of knives, including daggers and switchblades. The legislation was originally authored and introduced by State Representative Jennifer Coffey, who is also the National Coordinator for Second Amendment Sisters. The bill had bipartisan support and passed by unanimous voice vote.

Second Amendment Sisters is proud to have supported Jenn's efforts to restore the basic human right of self-defense in New Hampshire, and we hope this will be the beginning of a trend where antiquated laws that affect self-defense are examined and reevaluated.
