The difference between constitutionalists and socialists:

Constitutionalists respect court rulings and legislative limitations.

Socialists keep trying to create new court rulings and eliminate legislative limitations.

The idea behind this is not to enact gun control (yet), but to get a sympathetic PA Supreme Court (now stacked with socialist Democrats) to rule that Pennsylvania’s Pre-Emption Law is unconstitutional, thereby allowing every municipality to write their own gun laws.

This will end up before the same PA Supreme Court that took it upon itself to redraw the congressional districts to favor Democrats.

The PA Supreme Court is stacked with socialists.

Have you heard of the Battle of Athens (1946)?
GIs rose against corrupt government in TN.

Maybe then Cops might realize who really gives a shyt about them in the first place.

Harsh, but I think it would be effective.

all too many cops are stuck on stupid these days.

Hi. I am LE. I appreciate your thoughts. You are wrong to throw me in with a bunch of politicians. I like my guns and I like your guns. Let us keep both.

Firearm ownership is a human right. It transcends Fed and State law. I am not alone in this thinking amongst LE.

Try not to hate all police, as a group.

Hence the 14th Amendment- equal protection under the law.

Problem is, he just don’t care. Probably some lib judge will attempt to legislate from the bench.

Pittsburgh City Government has become one giant Virtue Signaling festival since this guy became Mayor.

Meanwhile there are potholes to fill and garbage to be picked-up.

I do not.

However, if and/or when some politician or political party decides to try and confiscate our guns. You and your fellow officers will be the ones attempting to do so.

Such a circumstance, will place myself and countless others in an unenviable position. Freedoms come first, always.

You cannot use the defense that you were only doing your job. If you serve these peoples whims, then you will most likely pay the same price they will.

Which is a truly crappy situation.

So the next time one of your brother/sister officers starts spouting about gun control; take him/her around back and straighten the idiot out and not politely.

And I have met many, many LEO’s who advocate gun control and many of them are complete morons, who should not be cops.

You are one of the VERY FEW LEO’s who stand with freedom-loving citizens.

And MERRY CHRISTMAS! AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
