Let’s Talk Issues

I keep getting the question, “what are your main issues?”

My main issues are: Unconstitutional taxation, mainly being the 16th Amendment and Unconstitutional gun laws, all of them. Shall not be infringed means the government can be no laws regarding firearms.

I am against all laws that are outside the enumeration of the Constitution.

What I want to know are what are your issues? Let’s have some friendly discussions on issues you have or want to know about.

Ask me the questions about what’s important to you … Let me answer them for you!

  1. Hi Cassie. I’m a fellow Evangelical Christian. Seeing you seem to make the second amendment a huge centerpiece of your campaign, I have a couple questions. I have no problem with gun rights for hunting and target competitions, etc., BUT I have every problem with a right for private citizens to own and use military assault weapons, as they are designed for soldiers to use for mass killings. Such weapons should be restricted to the military. For any biblically supported pro-life ethic–which as a Christian I strongly advocate–there’s no room to legitimate the facilitation of mass murder by access to such weapons. So my two questions are: (1) Would you support a military assault weapons ban? and (2) Would you support strong background checks for the purchase of lethat weapons?

    1. The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution enumerates our God given right of the people to keep and bear Arms, and it shall not be infringed. Infringed being to break; to violate; to transgress; to neglect to fulfill or obey; as, to infringe a law.

      I would not support any firearm bans or background checks, by doing so I would be in violation of the Constitution, that I would take an oath to uphold.

      I do not believe that being a Christian and owning firearms is contradictory to the sanctity of life. It gives people the ability to protect themselves and their loved ones from tyranny and criminals who use them for criminal purposes.

      1. Senseless response, sorry Cassie, for being blunt.. Constitution was written when mass murder-capable guns were non-existent. WE, THE PEOPLE, can definitely be allowed to bear arms. That should not be misinterpreted, as you do, as unbridled freedom to bear mass murder-capable arms. Those that possess rapid fire guns don’t need to arm themselves with such a horrific fire-arm.

        I thought you would be sensible, and you are not, in my opinion.

        I read the write-up for your Democratic opponent, and then read yours. Though we have multi-faceted issues facing us from economy, illegals, and such, to foreign problems, I will extrapolate your thoughts on the gun issue to all other issues, meaning your thoughts are extreme and don’t align with those of mine. I am an issues person. I usually vote for Republican that makes sense. So, I will vote for Democrat for this election.

        Have a marvelous life and wishing you and your family the very best.

        1. Thank you for your comment. I understand that you don’t agree and that’s ok. Thank God we still live in a free country that allows that. Thank you for taking the time to educate yourself on the candidates to make better decisions on who you will vote for rather than just checking a box. Best Wishes.

  2. It’s impossible for me to disagree with your platform but what is there to convince me that you actually mean it? I think many of us with a constitutionalist bent would like to elect representatives who aren’t afraid to “throw over the tables of the money changers”. Your bio doesn’t show that you’ve had any experiences like that, something showing that you’re a firebrand. Think you can do that?

    1. I love that you used the reference to throwing over the tables of the money changers. I too have righteous anger at what is going on in Washington, DC and the rest of the country. I know the Constitution and I am outspoken about what is and isn’t in it. I am fed up, like so many people and it’s time to take our country back from these parties. I fought with Enoch City Council to get them to amend their ordinance that violated State and Federal laws regarding our 2nd Amendment rights. I keep hearing how it can’t be done. I disagree, I have hope that the people of this country will wake up. I know I will be hated in Washington DC, but I refuse to back down. I don’t give up on what is right. I will keep fighting for our God given rights enumerated in the Constitution no matter how long it takes. I know I can do this job, because I know that the Framer’s intent was not what we have now. I want my Liberty back and will defend it, so that my grandchildren will be able to live in the freedom they were meant to have.

  3. Hi Cassie, I just have a general question and would like to know your thoughts. To me, we have terrifying problem of pedophelia and trafficking children here in the United States and inside our Government. Why do you think that nobody will talk about or tackle or recognize on a large scale that this is very REAL issue?

    1. I believe it’s a real problem. My granddaughter just transitioned from Home school to a Charter school. One of the first things that her parents did was get a locater that she has on her everyday to go to school. We shouldn’t have to live with this fear for our children or grandchildren. There was an organization that focuses on this subject on campus at SUU last month and I took their information to look into when things slowed down for me. This is a problem that needs to be addressed at the Federal level, because it does cross International and State lines. I will admit that I hadn’t thought about it at the Federal level until you asked, more on the level of protecting my family. Thank you for making me see a better perspective.
      I think that people don’t talk about it as a political issue is because all sides agree that it is bad and most politicians focus on divisive issues.

  4. Hello,
    I appreciate your dedication to the Constitution, however, there are a couple of issues that are extremely important today that are not addressed in the constitution. I’m curious about you stance on abortion rights, cryptocurrency, and clean energy?
    Thanks!

    1. Abortion – This subject is not addressed in the Constitution so would fall under the 10th Amendment and would be a decision for the States. I agree with the Supreme Court on this one and the reasons why is that at the State level we have more say at this level. Every State has a different perspective on this issue and should be able to make their own laws that fits the people of that State.
      Cryptocurrency – I’m for cryptocurrency as an investment, but not for the Government’s digital currency. I believe it gives the Government the ability to stop us from having access to money we have earned with the push of a button. Article 1 section 8 gives congress the ability to coin money and set the value, which to me means something tangible.
      Clean energy as a general term makes me think of renewable energy. We currently don’t have the infrastructure to sustain renewable energy needs. We will still need to use fossil fuels and other energies. If it is something that people want on a personal level they are free to choose that. But at the same time if people want to use other sources they should also have the freedom to do so. I disagree with the Government forcing people to do anything.
