How about we repeal the first ammendment.
Let’s repeal the 19th Amendment instead!
Wonderful. The just wait until the next DemonShit (aka communist) is elected President and we’ll become Venezuela North, gulags, mass starvation, and all the rest.
GFYS, Beth.
Yeah?
You and whose 2/3?
Do you have to pass a background check to steal a gun?
repeal the 2nd and CWII begins. History will repeat itself.
Exactly. The First Amendment has been abused so often for hundreds of years. We should ban it.
Florida, unlike a lot of other states, has a robust JROTC program. Even this rich school, Parkland, has a very good drill program.
I know what you're trying to say but I wanted to point this out.
If the political Left thinks they have problems now, they should make an ernest a attempt to push through this appeal. It would be fun to see the Democrats actually have to change their party-name for future elections.
Vermont, NH and Maine all have Constitutional carry and minimal to no 2A infringements.
Totalitarian states have great "Bills of Rights". Why? Because totalitarian and socialist states are based on the flawed idea that your rights are granted by man and his government and if they can give you your rights they can take them away.
Not so in America. The stating point here is with the individual and his God-given rights, SOME of which are WILLINGLY given up to have a central government. In America's case, the people delegated certain limited powers to the feds enumerated in U.S. Constitution.
In America WE the PEOPLE give the government their rights, not the other way around. The feds ONLY legitimate power are those delegated by the people and enumerated in the Constitution. All other rights and power belong to the states and the people.
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights [of the U.S. Government], shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.Article [IX] (Amendment 9 – Unenumerated Rights)
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.Article [X] (Amendment 10 – Reserved Powers)
America is TRULY exceptional, because our our country is based on the truth that our rights derive from God as stated in the Declaration of Independence.
People in Canada and the UK don't have a Declaration of Independence that declares that certain individual rights are INALIENABLE and God-given, among them Life Liberty, and Pursuits of Happiness free from government interference. THAT is the MAIN presumption of the Constitution.
The first ten amendments were added because the anti-federalists believed that government would ignore its constitutional limitations and the presumption of individual rights. They weren't wrong. But they are not a grant of powers, only a reminder of the feds limitations.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.Article [II] (Amendment 2 – Bearing Arms).
IE, the government is not permitted to infringe on those God -given individual rights that are not enumerated as a delegated power to the feds. In this case, since the Constitution does not enumerate a specific power to the feds to regulate gun ownership, then the feds have no legitimate power to regulate gun ownership.
Now it is up to us to uphold the reinstate the Constitution as the Supreme law of the Land. MAGA by RESTORING OUR FREE CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.
Right - since Prohibition worked so well.
Anger rerouted to Bret. Thanks for righting my ship, FRiend.
I agree with all that...but unless it is written in BLACK AND WHITE, leftist judges will rule against us. That’s my only point.
LOL! Hard list to starboard.
My man!
Well, you’ve lost the battle for freedom and our Free Constitutional Republic if you acquiesce or surrender to unconstitutional federal power not enumerated in the Constitution.
If it’s not enumerated in the Constitution, it is NOT a legitimate federal power. THAT is where the battle is for the political and legal soul of America and the recovery of our Free Constitutional Republic.
