While politicians in some states are working hard to whittle away American citizens' right to defend themselves, now id the time to advocate for universal suffrage for firearms ownership rights.


This week on Though to Action, Lt. Col. (Ret.) Tony Shaffer talks with Stephen Halbrook, Senior Fellow at Independent Institute well known for his litigation on behalf of the National Rifle Association (#NRA)


Shaffer and Halbrook look at the need to more clearly define important second amendment issues:
1. The guaranteed right to self-defense with the establishment of a minimal response requirement.
2. Accepting "use of force" without discharge as a viable de-escalation technique
3. How to establish universal suffrage for gun ownership rights in the U.S.


Steven Halbrook is also featured in a second interview with Lt. Col. British Army Tim Wilson, who leads the London Center for Policy Research 2nd Amendment project.
