This article brings it all back into perspective. The government's duty is to protect the rights documented in the Constitution. Obama and his administration cannot take away our rights simply to make a point. The government needs ensure that the rights of the American people remain consistent even in times of political turmoil. That my friends is the foundation of America. Lets hope others begin to realize this soon.

Speaking of the Constitution: If we can limit the number of rounds in a firearm magazine, we can limit the number of pages in a Hustler magazine. The same specious utilitarian logic that applies to the first also applies to the second.

“. . . Obama and his administration cannot take away our rights simply to make a point. . .”

The US Constitution is nothing more and nothing less that an obstruction to the “statist utopia” these socialist are pushing on every American and exactly who the moochers party wants!

Watch the socialist temper-tantrum along with the old media after the real conservatives puts the brakes on their so called “gun control” legislation. the US Constitution be damned, full steam ahead with disarming the American people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The leftist were embarrassed in front of their buddies in the UN when they could not get through a United Nations Small Arms control Treaty, so now, they are going to show their ilk in the UN they too can disarm these nasty and dangerous backwoods hicks of their firearms!!

Sit back and watch the fireworks my fellow Americans! It gets really good when the socialist are told “NO!”

Eight Deuce on the Loose!

How can any law like registration, which turns a right into a regulated conditional privilege, be constitutional? Legitimate government interest or not, the government was NOT delegated the authority to infringe upon the RIGHT to keep and bare arms. This applies both to the federal government and to the States through the due process clause of the 14th Amendment.

Supreme Court's 2008 decision in Heller v. District of Columbia confirmed that the Second Amendment means what it says: "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Umm, no it didn't. Didn't Alito him self write that the State could have "common" sense restrictions?

Some one please correct me if I'm wrong.

Obama doesn’t care a rat’s posterior about the Constitution...it’s all about absolute government power and control. As for the SCOTUS decisions, Obama is just one justice appointment away from getting anything he wants. Roberts is willing to use clever sophistry to twist the Constitution and the Obama appointees would just as soon use UN tribunals as the US courts.

Disappointingly, this appears to concede the Universal Background Check (see tagline).
