The Second Amendment isn't just about guns—it's the ultimate shield for the First, and Sal Assante lays it bare in this hard-hitting episode. From historical infringements that crippled law-abiding citizens to modern gun control laws creating helpless "gun-free" zones where crime explodes, Sal exposes how government overreach strips your right to self-defense while leaving tyrants unchecked. "The Second Amendment protects the First Amendment"—and without an armed citizenry, freedom dies. We should be exercising our rights, because protecting our Republic comes with a cost: the willingness to bear arms against threats foreign, domestic, and bureaucratic. Wake up, patriots—disarmament is the road to serfdom. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:50 The Importance of the Second Amendment01:14 Introduction to the Second Amendment03:56 The Importance of the Second Amendment07:11 Historical Infringements on the Second Amendment10:39 The Impact of Gun Control Laws12:55 Defending Against Tyranny and Ensuring Safety

America's future is vanishing—one birth at a time. Sal Assante exposes the brutal truth behind plummeting U.S. fertility rates, stuck below replacement level since 1971 amid skyrocketing costs, delayed marriages, and a culture that punishes families. From the staggering impact of 65-67 million abortions to economic strains crushing young couples ("things cost so much"), Sal breaks down how low births threaten Social Security, healthcare, and national sustainability. Plus: Does mass immigration mask the crisis while reshaping our cultural fabric? It's time for bold policy fixes and cultural resets to reclaim family-first America. Fertility rates are so low—why? Patriots, wake up before it's irreversible. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:41 Economic Factors Influencing Fertility01:50 Cultural Shifts and Marriage Age03:16 Understanding Replacement Rates04:56 Impact of Abortion on Fertility Rates06:37 Consequences of Low Fertility Rates09:08 Cultural and Economic Implications of Immigration12:41 Proposed Solutions for Improving Fertility Rates
