The whole article is behind a paywall but here are the bullet points:

* "Their proponents misunderstand the clear constitutional limits on gun rights."

* "The resolution, and others like it, demonstrate how their proponents operate on a fundamental misunderstanding of the rights afforded Americans by the Second Amendment and, importantly, the limitations on those rights.* "

"...they’ve spurred extremists who want to stand up local militias to engage in armed rebellion against the state — action that isn’t just dangerous but that also runs counter to the Constitution."

But, but, these same sorts of people are apologists for so called “sanctuary cities” from ICE. Seems a little self contradictory (I know, just rhetorically speaking).

Ask them to substitute Illegal Alien for 2nd Amendment and see if they feel the same way

Partner, This sanctuary business is one big "Bravo Sierra" by the Far left Rat crowd in every state of this Great country of ours.

Nobody is entitled to "Sanctuary" period.

Hopefully, the new Atty. Gen. William Barr will do something about this Sanctuary garbage that Far Left Rat party has foisted this "Bravo Sierra" on the American public.

Our previous Atty. General Jeff Sessions did not do one thing to help us out. I understand that he wants to run for Senator in Alabama and we hope he does not win at all. He is the biggest joke of all recommended by someone to President Trump to put him in as Attorney General.

Leftists REALLY don’t want this to go to court.
Putting the courtroom spotlight squarely on “shall not be infringed” will be good for us.

-—neither would “sanctuary” cities for illegals stand up , —especially if some governors , mayors, etc., were arrested and tried by a military tribunal as they should be, as they are in a state of rebellion-—

These resolutions, to the extent they conflict with state law, lack legal effect...


But a illegal alien sanctuary resolution that conflicts with federal law, no problemo...

Riiiiiight.

100% FALSE. That is in fact the REASON for the 2nd Amendment, as stated EXPLICITLY in the Federalist Papers and elsewhere.

I now assume the state will send out the State Police to arrest all LEOs in sanctuary counties who are not enforcing insane laws.

The Constitution restricts the government from infringing on our NATURAL right.

Has the WaPOSt addressed the legality of sanctuary cities that refuse to enforce federal laws?

“they’ve spurred extremists who want to stand up local militias to engage in armed rebellion against the state — action that isn’t just dangerous but that also runs counter to the Constitution.”

And the jest of the reason for the 2A as outlined in the Declaration of Independence.

They’ll hold up in the streets then. There’s no green zone big enough to protect these bastards from the law of unintended consequences.

Oh, but Sanctuary Cities and such for Illegal Aliens is perfectly fine.

Whatever.

Enough fiddling around. Let’s just have it out, once and for all. Constitutionalists vs gun grabbing tyrants and their true believers.

To the death.

“Overblown alarm over reasonable gun-control laws”


Two out of the first four words in her article/column are propaganda.
