I am more concerned by the absolute nature of Cruz’s comments than the particulars of these rancher cases. If he cannot see an implied right to the use of force in the Second Amendment, or the warning that one intends to exercise the right of self defense or defense of others in the First Amendment, then he far from the legal authority that people like to think he is. If he cannot see those basics of natural law, he is as blind as the ones who see homosexual couplings as marriage are delusional.

I am looking forward to his expanding on this bald dismissal of the very means by which this country was founded. He has to elaborate on what he said.

Same here. The way he phrased that statement is disconcerting, to say the least.

I agree with everything you said. Cruz has DENIED the RIGHT to self defense clearly written in the Second Amendment. HA! Some constitutional genius he is, he just showed his true colors.He is YELLOW, in the face of Fed overreach and tyranny.

Agreed- whether people vote for this man or not may very well hinge on his answer- I find it frightening that he thinks the second amendment isn’t meant for standing up for our constitutional rights
