CRUZ or LOSE!Posted on 04/17/2015 8:02:22 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
I think the disarming of German citizens and the following tyranny support Cruz’s position quite well.
I love blogs and bloggers. They think that just because their words are immortalized somewhere on the internet, they really have meaning and truth attached to them.
Not this guy.
Apparently the political science major/Obama booster author of the story never read any of the writings of the Founders, such as Jefferson, on the subjctt of an armed citizenry. Or, he doesnt care what they thought.
Um, yes, it does. The Revolutionary War was the first such act of rebellion for our forefathers. It worked, and we have The United States of America as a result.
CRUZ or LOSE!Just what is “high honors in Political Cognition”??
There are dozens of such examples to choose from. Never has a government disarmed its citizens for no reason. There will be tyranny sooner or later.
I think this guy is probably of the leftist variet if you look at the nature of the articles listed on his blog. He ppears to be another one of “those” guys who sets up a blog that appears to be conservative in nature because it uses the word America in it when Communist Party would be more appropriate. I get tired of the deception used by the left. Lying is all they got.
A classic example of taking a statement actually said and then trying to twist it into a statement that supports your thesis. I have no vested interest in Cruz at this point in time, but creating straw men like this and then trying to tear them down just earns my disrespect and clearly is not going to win me over to your side of the argument.
The constitution clearly and specifically affirms his position.
Jon Greene, another useful doofus, needs to take a reading comprehension class.
See how my comma’ed clause is used to apply only to the subject.
Well heck I just now saw this - it explains everything:
“Jon Green graduated from Kenyon College with a B.A. in Political Science and high honors in Political Cognition. He worked as a field organizer for Congressman Tom Perriello in 2010 and a Regional Field Director for President Obama’s re-election campaign in 2012. Jon writes on a number of topics, but pays especially close attention to elections, religion and political cognition. Follow him on Twitter at @_Jon_Green, and on Google+.”
“Being necessary to the security of a free state” doesn’t mean “being necessary to the citizens’ ability to shoot government officials if they don’t like paying taxes.” …Mister “Political Cognition” here seems to be utterly unaware that the War of Independence was fought over exactly that issue among others. Of course, it will not sink in to his brain until citizens are shot for not paying illegal taxes. (Not that he understands the concept of a “free state” . . . that “political cognition” kinda gets in the way.)
This guy is has a gnat’s brain to argue with the gigantic constitutional legal intellect that is Ted Cruz.
These Liberal nuts of today simply REFUSE to admit that the Founding Fathers were well aware that they, the Liberal nuts of today, would find their way into power, sooner or later!
They fear that if the people actually knew the real basis of the right to “keep and bear arms,” they might finally stop taking the butt-pounding that Washington, D.C. continues to provide every American citizen!!
” “Being necessary to the security of a free state” doesn’t mean “being necessary to the citizens’ ability to shoot government officials if they don’t like paying taxes.” “
You mean I can no longer shoot IRS agents when the come to my door ?
Just D A R N !!
Yes, straight from Fearless Leader.
>Um, yes, it does. The Revolutionary War was the first such
>act of rebellion for our forefathers. It worked, and we
>have The United States of America as a result.
Amen brother, I second that amendment. This article is garbage, lock, stock, and barrel.
