The “justice” department knows how to prosecute when it wants. So then why didn’t it do anything about the black panthers intimidating voters and fast and furious?

It is more than about the 2nd. It is about state's rights. If Kansas can say that the Fedgov can enforce gun laws, then it can say the same about EPA rules or OSHA regs.

What is interesting is that the kept things very low key when Montana tried it, but are escalating on Kansas.

At what point is it prudent to start talking about a Constitutional Convention? So many Freepers are afraid such a convention might destroy their RKBA, and yet what trajectory are we surely on today?

If we hold a convention, an work product must be ratified by a super-majority of the surviving states. I say “surviving” because a Convention allows us to totally redefine the relationship between the States and the new federated government.

We would have the opportunity to stop the current federal government’s ability to make us debt-serfs and to spend more than it takes in. We would have the opportunity to formalize a way for the States to nullify or repeal an odious federal rule or regulation. We would have an opportunity to restore a rational basis to the law. This very action by Holder is based on the specious power grab the the federal government and counts that is based on Depression-era court case where a man who grew his own grain to feed his own pigs was declared to be engaged in “interstate commerce”. How absurd. Yet this is one of the legs of the stool that supports ObamaCare, another odious law that must be repealed.

At what point is a Convention less dangerous to our liberties and prosperity than our present trajectory? I think we are obligated to revoke the current federal government or we are dead as a free people.

I’d just stick my tongue out at Holder and say, “nyah!!!!”

More states need to do this. Makes me want to move to Kansas. If only it wasn’t so flat.
