My AR-15 is my defensive rifle; chosen for home and personal defense. Defense is a three front issue; Personal and Family Protection, Defense of Property, and Protection from Over-reaching Government and Alien Invaders. I am guaranteed the right to own weapons for this purpose by the 2nd Amendment of the United States Constitution. According to the arguements of the Federalist Papers; The weapons I own should be equivilent to the threats I face. This is why I own a Defensive Rifle. Thanks for listening. If you disagree, move to Great Britain.
