Legal Question in Constitutional Law in Texas

I am a healthy 72yo on zero drugs and recently took to living in HUD housing. The manager called me in to tell me that the lease does not allow me to have a gun in my home. She is turning in a violation on me because, apparently some of the other tenants feel insecure about me having a gun. I have not showed it off, threatened anyone or exhibited any nonsensical behavior, and I am no ex-con, neither have I ever been adjudicated as incompetent. Since when can a housing company relieve me of my right to bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment? So far it's just hearsay, but here, three violations and you're out. Also, I'm being denied the right to face my accuser(s), who are all on several drugs, both pharmaceutical and illicit. Management already has the right to enter my home for inspection at any time. I do not want to give up my only home defense in this dangerous neighborhood. Nor do I want to set precedent as to yielding my God-given rights over some lies and a company edict. What do I do now?

If you're living in HUD housing you have to live by the terms of the lease. You can move somewhere else where your constitutional rights are respected.

Good luck.
