Elon Musk has restated why the First and Second Amendments exist in the United States. On November 29, 2025, from X.com:
And this is why we have the first and second amendments in America.
Elon was reacting to a story out of the United Kingdom. British police harassed a British subject who had dared to hold firearms while in Florida, and then post images of him doing so on his LinkedIn account.
According to a Daily Mail article:
The 50-year-old said he offered to prove that the pictures had been taken in the US – where owning or shooting guns are perfectly legal. Officers told him it was not necessary.
A week later on August 23, the officers returned and arrested him on suspicion of possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and another allegation of stalking related to a photograph of a house that appeared on his social media.
Mr Richelieu-Booth was held overnight in a cell before being interviewed. He was then released on bail until October.
He claims police visited his home three more times before the charges against him were dropped.
Mr. Richelieu-Booth reported that his computers and telephone were seized by police, which made it impossible for him to work. Mr. Richelieu-Booth is an IT consultant. The charges were eventually dropped. While he never faced trial, the process was a considerable punishment. Mr. Richelieu-Booth was arrested, jailed overnight, and rendered unable to work for weeks because he posted images of legal activity online. The police say they were responding to a complaint from a person who had seen the images online and felt threatened.
During the Biden regime, people lost jobs and had their careers ruined for statements made online in the USA. Not supporting the racist DEI agenda was enough for academics to have their activities severely restricted.
Elon Musk has been a strong supporter of the First and Second Amendments. Elon stated the Second Amendment is why we are able to keep the First Amendment. From an August 24, 2024 post on X.com:
The 2nd amendment is the only reason long-term that the 1st amendment will be upheld.

President Donald Trump is a vocal supporter of the First and Second Amendments. There has been a reversal of the censorship apparatus put in place by the Biden administration. President Trump issued an Executive Order supporting the Second Amendment. The Department of Justice has supported the Second Amendment in several court cases. The DOJ is opening up a new unit in the Civil Rights Division, dedicated to enforcing the rights protected by the Second Amendment.
The First and Second Amendments are enshrined in the American Constitution as part of the Bill of Rights. The British “rights of Englishmen” only exist as traditions in English law. The right of Englishmen to be armed was gradually eviscerated, starting after WWI, when the government feared revolution. Recently, the right to free speech has been rendered toothless in England by “hate speech” codes.
President Trump’s and Elon Musk’s strong support for the First and Second Amendments signals a cultural shift away from an all powerful government, back toward Constitutional limitations on government power.
About Dean Weingarten:
Dean Weingarten has been a peace officer, a military officer, was on the University of Wisconsin Pistol Team for four years, and was first certified to teach firearms safety in 1973. He taught the Arizona concealed carry course for fifteen years until the goal of Constitutional Carry was attained. He has degrees in meteorology and mining engineering, and retired from the Department of Defense after a 30 year career in Army Research, Development, Testing, and Evaluation.
Democratics may shout “No Kings” but they sure are jealous of the way things work in jolly old England.
From the article:
There has been a reversal of the censorship apparatus put in place by the Biden administration.
Have you seen the advertisement where the woman walks around with a banana? Need I say more!
Make OreGONEistan OreGUN again.
I don’t believe that anybody complained about this guy holding a firearm. I believe that some goon police officer decided he wanted to make an example out of this and proceeded to arrest and harass this person. This is exactly the kind of scenario where the Second Amendment comes into play. It’s too bad Great Britain doesn’t have a Constitution that limits their government.
I used to be a proud rebel with roots in Ark., but now with the Dems reverting into Communism I’m almost ashamed of my southern roots. Shame on you Commie Rat Bastards!
Lets not forget to give Trump and Musk an atta boy. They may not give us every little thing on the wish list. However they are headed in the right direction.
Churchill, William the Conqueror, Admiral Nelson, Queen Elizabeth I, and Sean Connery, just to name a few, are rolling in their graves. What happened to the British people? What is scary is that it could foreshadow the future of America. As the article stated, there was censorship under the Bidumb politburo. If the dims ever control the federal government again, we could realize that future.
“The police say they were responding to a complaint from a person who had seen the images online and felt threatened.” If that is true, Europe, and Great Britain in particular, are over run with a bunch of frickin’ pussies. What a mockery and disgrace they have become!
It’s amazing to me how any group of people wants to overcontrol the activities of others, especially when no harm is being done. If you’re “afraid”, it’s okay to be afraid. No one owes you any therapy for that. So now I hope this guy will get to Florida a whole bunch more times, gain proficiency and up his confidence with the shotgun and anything else he’d like to try. And then don’t post photos.
