You don’t have to be big to stand tall. Just ask Holton Township, Michigan, a community of 2,586 people that has boldly adopted a Second Amendment Resolution, declaring itself a Second Amendment Sanctuary.
The township, located a little over 200 miles northwest of Detroit, recently passed resolutions to establish its own militia and protect residents’ rights, according to the Daily Mail.
Township Supervisor Alan Jager emphasized the importance of due process and preventing the violation of citizens’ rights, stating, “Whether they’re trying to pass something where they’re taking your rights away without you having due process. And I want you to be able to have due process.”

Jager expressed concerns about the ease with which guns could be taken away, stating, “All you had to do is go to the right court: you’re going to get the judge to do it.”
