2a

The world cheered Ukraine; They fought an aggressor. David and Goliath, An evil oppressor. They took up their arms In a right and just cause. For us, this bears out 2A’s opening clause. And no, my dear child, Don’t confuse ‘regulated.’ ‘Functioning properly’ Could also be stated. A free state is one Where its people are free: Free from aggression, And from tyranny. Sometimes this takes The shape of Putin, But sometimes tyranny Comes from within. See our founders first saw Themselves under the crown, But the king piled injustice, And things all spiraled down. They rallied together; They all took up arms. They fought for their freedom, For family, for farms. Thank God they had rifles And weapons of war; They broke free of England, Were subjects no more. Uvalde’s a horror; We must look deep within: The land of the free Juxtaposed against sin. Sin’s a quaint little concept Most will choose to ignore, But there’s evil within us All the way to the core. The child, widow, orphan we’re called to protect Will all die beside us If 2A is wrecked. We must put down aggressors Both lone wolves and the State. For that’s how the founders Made America great. No, I can’t afford aircraft And I can’t afford tanks, But I’ve got an AR And I’m keeping it, thanks.
