I thought I would just share a thought. All these outrageous proposals such as forcing gun owners to buy extra insurance, backdoor confiscation through universal background checks, and other vile crap I find infuriating. I think those of us who oppose these things should come up with our own proposals that the enemy would find completely unacceptable, because the best defense is a good offense. So, here is a proposal I have for an act of Congress:
"The 2nd Amendment Protection Act of 2013 Resolved that the 2nd Amendment represents a fundamental freedom, this act hereby declares that any attempt to legislate, enact, enter into, endorse, craft, or otherwise propose any legislation or regulation that would inhibit the free exercise of the 2nd Amendment be defined as treason, punishable by not less than death, applicable to any member of Congress, any member of any state legislature, town council or other lawmaking body, or employee of a federal agency, elected official, or other such person in charge of making regulations within the executive branch. "
Yeah, I know. It has little chance of passing, and some effeminate country-club GOP-E appeaser is reading this and throwing his/her Perrier back up in their mouth reading it. The point is, by taking swipes at the left- the way they are doing- it will hamper their attempts to enact whatever rubbish they are attempting to pass, because they have expend some effort to fend off whatever we toss at them, no matter how ridiculous.
Good point, although a clever prosecutor could probably define legislation that interferes with the 2nd Amendment as activity that seeks to damage the US by weakening its defenses, thereby making such activity an attack, making it meet the “levying war against them” standard.... Also, there might be a pretty good case for the current administration to be considered as adhering to the enemies of the US, such as the Muslim Brotherhood, or Communist China....
Kudos on that.
Thank you. If we’re going to have a “national conversation” about firearms let’s start by demanding that every law on the books be challenged on its Constitutionality. Never give a inch! ;-)
I’ve still got some faith in the NRA- numbers and money are useful, and I’m a life member myself. I don’t have much in the Republican party though, because I think they would like very much to cave in on this issue.
I agree with you on the NRA. They have been far too willing to compromise on our god given right to protect ourselves against a government who is becoming more and more willing to turn their weapons and laws on us!
The NRA calls me so often I know their phone numbers by heart and I refuse to talk to them.
