He gives her too much respect. I NEVER use their title when speaking to my elected officials. They work for me: I am not their subject.

Found this song that should be our 2nd Amendment anthem:

“You can stand me up at the gates of Hell, but I won’t back down.”

There’s only one base and he didn’t cover it. The Second Amendment exists to reaffirm and assure the fourth inalienable right listed in the Declaration of Independence - the right of the people to “alter or abolish” a tyrannical government.

Writings such as The Federalist go so far as to explicitly state the 2nd is in the Constitution because the people need to be armed as a fail-safe for overthrowing the Federal government. “Federal” being named specifically as the subject in question.

I don’t mean to be preachy. I’m tired and cranky. Tomorrow I may read this and think, “Wow. I’m a jerk.”

.....again.

Many of our state and local law enforcement agencies authorize these very same civilian-style semi-automatic rifles that are subject to your ban for self-purchase, in lieu of spending increasingly scarce taxpayer collars, to practice with and to use on-duty as patrol rifles in order to defend themselves, for use at the distance we see in our rural areas. It would seem that same self-defense use for our citizens, not in law enforcement, in much of our nation's rural areas, should also be part of their inherent right pursuant to the Second Amendment. In this same fashion, some of the shotguns you seek to ban are used by our officers and should also be available to citizens for hunting, recreation and self-defense as well.

The AR-15 series semi-automatic rifle is literally a modern American "musket," and that is evidenced by the massive panic-buying going today as a result of your proposed bill and still others at the state level.

Aesop's Fables for Children

The Wind and the Sun

An Aesop Fable

The wind and the sun argued one day over which one was the stronger. Spotting a man man traveling on the road, they sported a challenge to see which one could remove the coat from the man's back the quickest.

The wind began. He blew strong gusts of air, so strong that the man could barely walk against them. But the man clutched his coat tight against him. The wind blew harder and longer, and the harder the wind blew, the tighter the man held his coat against him.The wind blew until he was exhausted, but he could not remove the coat from the man's back.

It was now the sun's turn. He gently sent his beams upon the traveler. The sun did very little, but quietly shone upon his head and back until the man became so warm that he took off his coat and headed for the nearest shade tree.

Some of my Liberal "friends" and the Waco Trib made a big deal about our sheriff having sworn an oath to enforce the law....

When I stop laughing and listing the sins of Barack the Lawless I make this point:

How many innocent citizens were murdered by their own governments because local officials in Germany, Russia, Cambodia, Cuba, (and on an on), did not question laws they knew were wrong and blindly followed them? The VERY first training I recieved in BCT was that it was my DUTY to refuse to follow illegal orders.

I’m betting 100 to 1 that the good sheriff’s letter falls on deaf ears.

[Gator113]

It’s okay to be “cranky and tired”, we all are..... I know that I sure am sick of what all is going on in our country.

I am pleased to see that Sheriffs in nearly every state have come out in support of our side. Obama and his filthy democrats are very formidable enemies, so we need all the help we can get.

I would much rather have the Sheriffs in the tent pissing out, than outside pissing in.

I doubt very much that we will ever see an elected Sheriff preach about: “the right of the people to “alter or abolish” a tyrannical government.”, at least not until things get far worse in this country. Of course, at the lightning speed that our country is devolving, that reality could be around the next bend.

As for me, I will continue try to enjoy what is good in my life, while I prepare for the coming storm.

Cheers.....

You’re absolutely right....and I knew it last night.

But......you know. lol

[NFHale]

He’s a hell of a lot more polite than I would be.

Let’s start by losing the “Honorable” and go down the list from there.

But the man has my support.

[atomic_dog]

He should send a letter like that to Leland Yee in Sacramento.
