Today, the right to bear arms is consistently under attack by the Democrat Party. Leftists like the California governor are so far-gone with their anti-gun agenda that they’re rallying to have it enshrined within the US Constitution.

What gun control enthusiasts won’t be honest about, however, are the many cases in which a good person who was armed saved lives or stopped someone intent on doing harm to innocent people.

No matter how much Democrats act like this isn’t real, these stories continue to pop up. According to the Gateway Pundit, the latest case of this comes out of Louisiana.

Robert Rheams got the surprise of his life when he attempted to break into the home of a pregnant woman and her kids. Before Rheams was able to harm any of the people in the house, he was met with the receiving end of firepower.

This is an open-and-shut case, as it’s clear that Rheams meant to do harm. He not only wore a ski mask and carried weapons with him at the time of the incident, but he also threatened to physically hurt the mother.

Were it not for this woman having a firearm, there’s no telling what Rheams would have done or been able to get away with.

Later, law enforcement confirmed that Rheams also had a lengthy criminal record.

The case out of Louisiana and so many other similar situations are all the more reason why the Second Amendment is important and has to be protected.

As proven on numerous occasions, criminals don’t adhere to gun control laws. As such, making the everyday person defenseless isn’t going to save lives or stop tragedies. It will only empower bad and dangerous individuals who are deadset on doing harm.
