Nominee has a past that is opposed to individual self-defense

President Obama poses a real and present danger to the Second Amendment, and he's working to pack the Supreme Court with justices who will undermine Americans' gun rights.

Mr. Obama didn't fess up to this radical agenda when running for the highest office in the land. "I have said consistently that I believe that the Second Amendment is an individual right, and that was the essential decision that the Supreme Court came down on," Mr. Obama told Fox News in June 2008. Despite the campaign rhetoric, Mr. Obama is appointing judges who strongly oppose that position. The most recent pick, Elena Kagan, ran much of President Clinton's war on guns from 1995 to 1999.

The list, ping

Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list

I never truly believed it before, but I now think that we’re actually going to have to use them...

We’ve gone a long way downhill from my childhood in the 50’s...

From what I am hearing, Kagan is a threat to the Constitution.

[Domandred]

The entire administration has been and is a threat to the Constitution.

These retread socialists can play any game they want....

They can pass any law (albeit illegal) they want, but when the rubber meets the road, they will only achieve to hasten their own downfall.

They subjugate the constitution at their own peril.

I will not go quietly into the night.

Communists threaten all freedoms. They are a clear and present danger.

[trimom]

And you will not need to go alone. The anger is building.

"Sen. Coburn (R-OK): I Won't Necessarily Vote Against Kagan" From the Woodward Report (6/9). On an adjacent thread...

Have you noticed there aren't any GOPers threatening to Bork Kagan? Awfully quiet aren't they...

Yeah. I noticed. Does not bode well.

Why telegraph your punches?

"Why telegraph your punches?"

Hard to telegraph something they don't have..."

Sp if he does away with the second amendment how does he propose to collect all those millions of firearms especially if we don't want to give em up without a fight.

From the Wash Times Comment Section: 5b3dce55ce797c5e4b2e8717b453a8 says:
What part of “RIGHT” don’t these as*h**es understand. If thia were a real “democracy” then lets take away the right to vote from anyone who is on the dole, until they get off the dole. I believe that is Constitutional. It would prevent the leaches from voting themselves a raise from your wallet.”

If we took away the right to vote from those on the dole, then we’d wipe out congress also. (Which I have no problem with)

[rickb308]

Sounds like we need to “Bork” the GOP.

[Grunthor]

She can have my guns. As long as she comes to collect them herself.

"how does he propose to collect all those millions of firearms especially if we don't want to give em up without a fight." He'll give them all amnesty, just like the wetbacks. Actually, the new Gestapo will look at various unfriendly membership lists, state records of CHL holders, the purchase records that were not really destroyed, etc. and commence to separate, isolate, and destroy ala Ruby Ridge, Fort Davis, Waco, etc. with the ever friendly BATFE. There will be a lot of cold dead hands without an organized and united sense of purpose. Therefore, the sheeple will fold their tents to surrender to the Pied Piper. Hiding your firearms buried in your backyard in a lead container doesn't make you much better off than Anne Frank.

I get the feeling if this gets dragged out long term that Kagan will be a recess appointment.

[Clintonfatigued]

Her paper trail is thin. Can she be stopped?
