After Joe Biden’s victory in the US presidential election, many are afraid that gun laws will be stricter.
Yesterday, a protest was held against the election result in Phoenix, Arizona, and for many there, the issue of weapons was most important.
– Joe Biden wants to ban this type of weapon, but no government should tell me what I can and cannot own. The only way this weapon leaves my hands is if I’m dead, says a man who does not want to say his name.
Among the hundreds The Trump supporters gathered in central Phoenix are wearing several in military-like equipment with helmets and vests and large rifles hanging over their bodies, including the man I am talking to.
He sees Joe Biden, who wants stricter rules on weapons, as a threat to his constitutional right to bear arms. According to him, the only way to keep a potentially tyrannical government in check is through an armed civilian population.
Some distance away stands John, and he too has a large automatic rifle hanging in front of his chest. For him, it is about protecting all rights in the constitution, regardless of who is president, by protecting his right to bear arms.
– I believe that everyone should have equal rights, you are here and use your freedom of speech and I am here to protect my right to bear arms and we both do it peacefully, says John.
