metmom: “ They [ the US Senate ] should be forced to give up their security details.
Wouldn’t THEIR security details count under this law as well? "
Specifically, the article stated : “ Sponsored in the U.S. Senate by Senator Edward Markey (D-MA) and cosponsored by Senator Laphonza Butler (D-CA),
the Preventing Private Military Activity Act of 2024 widely defines a paramilitary group as any group of 3 or more persons who function under a command structure as a “security services unit.”
”If passed, the bill would make it illegal to “publicly patrol, drill, or engage in techniques capable of causing bodily injury or death.”
Power to enforce this law would be derived from the interstate commerce clause of the constitution,
as the proposed bill would be applicable whenever a church security team utilizes either weapons or ammunition
that have “traveled in interstate or foreign commerce,” a clause that applies to nearly every weapon and round of ammunition in circulation.
Additionally, even the act of training to engage in an activity that could cause bodily injury or death,
such as an active shooter drill, would be considered a violation of federal law under the proposal. “
(My Opinion) : "An armed society is a polite society " -- There is much wisdom in that statement .
There is nothing polite in the US Senate, that wants a disarmed community, nevertheless a religious community, to be sacrificed
Me thinks that the Senate have partaken too much of the barbarian Palestine wine, and are sotted with power.
Lol- yhr bill says “the power to enforce... comes from co stitution”
Really? the very same constitution that the left ignore when it is convenient for them to do so?
They are so full of crap. There is nothing in the comstitution which prevents even civilian training. The bill itself is unconstitutional, yet they cite the constitution as their “power of enforcement”?
And, as a well, authorities had the power to arrest hunter for co mitting a felony, yet they chose not to- dropped the charges instead. I guess their “power of enforcement” only applies to conservative arrests znd convictions.
