Defending Our Rights: The Case of Aleah Wallace

In the heart of Texas, Aleah Wallace, a 25-year-old mother of four, faced an unimaginable threat. A teenage intruder, identified as Devin Baker, attempted to break into her daughter’s bedroom. In a moment of sheer instinct and maternal protection, Wallace used her legally owned firearm to defend her family, resulting in Baker’s death.

Despite no charges being filed by the Fort Worth police, acknowledging her act of self-defense, Wallace now confronts a new battle: eviction from her subsidized housing. This eviction, based on a controversial no-gun policy, has sparked a nationwide debate on the rights of individuals living in subsidized housing to bear arms for their protection.

This incident has become a touchstone in the ongoing debate about the Second Amendment and the rights of citizens to defend themselves. Critics argue that Wallace’s eviction is a gross violation of her constitutional rights, a sentiment echoed by gun rights advocates across the country. They view this as an example of overreach by housing authorities, infringing upon the fundamental rights granted by the Constitution.

Wallace’s ordeal comes against the backdrop of increasing break-ins in the Fort Worth area, highlighting the necessity for individuals to take up arms in defense of their homes and loved ones. This case amplifies the voice of many Americans who believe in the importance of self-reliance and the right to self-defense in an era where they feel let down by the state’s ability to protect them.

As the case heads to a grand jury, Wallace’s story is not just about a single incident of self-defense. It is a rallying cry for a reassessment of policies that restrict the rights of law-abiding citizens. Her courage in the face of danger, and now legal adversity, has galvanized a movement advocating for the rights of individuals to protect themselves and their families, especially within the confines of their own homes.

Texas Gun Rights stands firm in the belief that every American no matter what their background should have the right to defend themselves, their family, and their home without fear of legal repercussions or eviction.

    You have an error in your article: “They view this as an example of overreach by housing authorities, infringing upon the fundamental rights granted by the Constitution.” The Constitution doesn’t *grant* any rights – it protects them. As the founding fathers stated, all men “are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.” I have written about this misuse of terminology, and the unintended negative consequences therein: https://curetsky.substack.com/p/the-constitution-does-not-grant-us . The long and the short of it is, if the Constitution grants us rights, the government can take them away. All it takes is an Amendment. That is not at all what the framers intended.

    I back this woman’s right to bear arms without fearing repercussions even in subsidised, no, especially in subsidised housing. Many live in fear of break-ins in this day and age.

    Everyone should have the right to protect them and their family no matter where they live.

    Seems likely another example of supposedly progressive liberals unable to take our 2A rights finding other ways to enforce their will on us. In another time these same groups had a name, fascists. They sought to change everyone to their way of thinking and punishing those who resist.

    I would have thought that the Supreme Court ruling on the New York laws would have made this abundantly clear. No one has the legal right, to block an individual from owning a gun. And this is not an enforceable concept. Ms. Wallace was using her second amendment rights to protect her family. I don’t care if it was a public housing development. She has the same rights as EVERY TEXAN to keep and bear arms. She did and her family is still alive and able to pursue their dreams. This legal garbage must end now!

    Aleah Wallace is a hero! What if that dreadful man was about to abduct her daughter, or take her for child slavery? Any mother has the God given right to protect her children, no matter what an illegally acting city government department says. Where in Fort Worth do you think needs guns more than most of the city? Maybe subsidized housing, and to derive anyone living there of protection is downright evil. I praise your actions Miss Aleah!

    Just like at a motel/hotel, the owner or proprietor can put up all the “no guns allowed” signage he wants, but they dont count. Its your gun, your privatr property, in your private domicile, even if only for a night.
