“It is not possible to utterly enslave an armed people. The left has been aware of this for the better part of a century, hence the reason for its perpetual assault on the 2nd amendment”
No irony here. I don’t think the ultimate intent is enslavement but annihilation. The last century’s 100 million or so human deaths at the hands of their own governments was not an aberration. Each pogrom in the past was proceeded by a general disarming of the populace.
That’s all very well and good in theory.
The practical reality is that an agency like BATFE can destroy a person with a losing unConstitutional prosecution.
He is such a rabid anti-gun activist that he was caught lying, or I guess cheating is closer to correct, on a TV show. He was trying to make people think the semi-auto rifles were full auto.
He probably didn’t technically lie but clearly intended to mislead.
Well, honestly, we are still a free nation, so it does not matter what he opposes. No matter what these assorted half-wit bureaucrats like or dislike, it's still in the Constitution, which is still the supreme law of the land and the foundation for our entire legal system and society. Every single judge out there who rules against a citizen exercising one of his unalienable rights, including and especially the right to keep and bear arms, knows full well that he is in the wrong, however he tries to justify it. They know they are violating their oaths of office and the letter and spirit of the Constitution. They can only do it for as long as people let them; those days are coming to an end slowly, but surely. If they want a showdown, I'm sure a few million patriots would oblige them; there are already plenty of people itching for a confrontation to settle things the right way. I double-dog dare them.
The thing to which we must pay attention is the context in which Obama places our unalienable right to keep and bear arms: within the context of law, his laws, and those of the states that try to supersede the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution. They try to assert that man-made laws trump the unalienable right we have to be secure in our persons and property. They assert that government is giving that right within the context of government's laws, rather than being innate to our persons. The thinking is to cow people into believing that our rights come from government and, hence, are privileges bestowed by government, rather than unalienable rights that exist independent of the state. Whatever government gives, government can take away. It was a cleverly worded phrase, but deceptive and false.
It was a cleverly worded phrase, but deceptive and false."
Exactly. He does it often and thinks he is so brilliant that noboby knows when he does it. If you pay attention to the phrases he uses, they always have a double meaning. Pick the worst possible one for America and that is what he always means, not the obvious meaning but exactly the opposite. He hates us, and it shows. We are at war. We are the enemy.
No, we are not the enemy, but we know who is ............... FRegards
Obama not only believes the Second Amendment exists to protect the right of the people to resist an illegitimate tyrannical government—he knows that to be true. That’s why he wants to disarm the people.
exactly
When the horrific Roe vs. Wade decision found a glittering right to "privacy" in the Constitution that translated into a children being slaughtered, liberals took that ball and ran with it all the way into the godless endzone.
The states and cities don't want to affirm the right to gun ownership, so they are pressing ahead with their fascist tactics. The Court gave them a small "out", (reasonable laws), and they had to know that would be twisted and torn so wide that the states and cities could drive a truck through it.
So, this is what we are left with:
'Perfect Storm of Injustice'? N.J. Man Serving 7 Years for Guns He Legally Owned
Obama’s zeal for fundamental transformation acknowledges no constitutional restraints, else he would not be ruling, not governing, through his appointed but not subjected to Senate validation, parallel shadow government.
Not enough real Americans left to enslave. Roe v Wade, Kelo, no problem, just retreat a little more. If the SCOTUS had ruled otherwise and announced that 2A didn’t apply to individuals, who here would rebel?
Yeah, molon labe. When they come to your door you’ll resist. You’ll resist the tanks, flamethrowers, all that.
Paper tigers.
A Communist. This is an Agency due for severe budget cts.
*ping* to cartoon in #18
I like that one a lot!
A modern twist to the joke is “Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, Explosives: That’s one helluva party!”
The BATFE recently changed their name and initials so all the ATF jokes are now obsolete.
Not shouting at you, but this is one of those issues that makes me absolutely nuts.
The armed populace is no match for the paramilitary police and a military stacked with illegals via the DREAM act. The left knows that it cannot overthrow the constitution. It will make a move via a coup. In order for this coup to succeed they would need for the military to either stand down, or join them. With a military stacked with illegals, with no allegiance to their fellow citizens would gladly step into this role and draw down on and shoot people to whom they have nothing but contempt.
The Obamabots are going to make their move...soon. Count on it.
“Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms should be a convenience store” is a belief, not a joke! Heh heh heh.
