“Mark the date, it isn’t gonna be long before moderate Republicans start going on television to push the notion that guns are hurting Republicans with independent voters and women.” Just like abortion, just like the pro-lifers are hurting Republicans with independents. Just like immigration. The moderate linguine-spined Republicans, it isn’t gonna be long as this controversy heats up, you know, they wilt with a little heat. It doesn’t take the moderate Republicans long to slink away. They don’t like having to stand up and defend what they believe. They’d rather give away a core belief. They’d rather annunciate something that would make them friends with their enemies."

This is about way more than guns. The kenayn will use this as a test EO.

There is are a lot other items on the marxist wet dream list that they can’t get through Congress. Barry would be happy to EO them but first he needs to measure how the courts and the GOP will respond.

Q. Can anything less than a military force carry the Stamp Act into execution?

A. I do not see how a military force can be applied to that purpose.

Q. Why may it not?

A. Suppose a military force sent into America; they will find nobody in arms; what are they then to do? They cannot force a man to take stamps who chooses to do without them. They will not find a rebellion; they may indeed make one.

The Left has gone bonkers. They assume they can do anything they want.

If we do not retain our 2nd Amendment Rights, then all of the other Rights are just words written in ink on paper (or parchment) by “a bunch of old, dead, slave-owning white guys” which have no relevance in the modern world.

Which Right will disappear next? Or will the rest go one immediately after the other?

Domino Theory anyone?

My prediction - None of the legislation being discussed will ever make it the floor for a vote in either chamber. If you are a Democrat Senator from a flyover state, voting for an anti-2A bill is going to get you primaried faster than a pizza disappears at a Weight Watchers meeting.

Ultimately, I believe Obama will try to EO away ammunition. He will go through the EPA (lead), HHS (public safety) and/or Homeland Security (anti-terrorism.)

I am VERY pleased to see the action the state of Wyoming has taken... an absolute refusal to carry out the federales’ attempts to suppress 2A rights, including arrest of BATFE agents. Hopefully many others will follow suit.

If you care to read a few words out of that “little book”, as Piers Morgan described it, you will find the Constitution was written to form a government so that we might enjoy the blessings of liberty. That government was designed from the bottom up with limited powers in order to protect the rights that the Creator gives to all humans by right of birth, rights that exist outside of any government.

A free press is essential to preserve liberty and protect the country from a government run amok. This was seen the the famous reporting of Woodward and Burstein in the Watergate coverup. The right of free expression in speech, media and in internet commentary is so precious that it is my duty to preserve the First Amendment so that my grandchildren can fully exercise it should some future crisis necessitate it.

Similarly, just because I don’t need to fully exercise the pre-existing rights recognized in Second Amendment today doesn’t relieve me of the duty and obligation to pass those rights uninfringed and unencumbered to those same grandchildren just in case they must exercise them to protect their liberty.

The truth is that nobody can know what future crisis will give some future government an excuse to break free of the powers this same Constitution limits it to, nor how it may abuse the enumerated powers it has. So while I may not really need this style of rifle today anymore than I really need 30 pages of Husler Magazine. I am obligated to make sure my children and grandchildren can freely exercise their right to them or else I have not been a good citizen.

“The Left Is Convinced Americans Won’t Fight For 2nd Amendment Rights.”

Fitting words for their epitaph.

I am not sure what to make of this idea from the leftards...

History tells us that some people are designed to war, and to fight. Especially when they believe that there is an innocence or a right to protect. (Feminism hasn’t killed off all of the testosterone yet)

I saw a bumper sticker, on a big black SUV driven by 35 something male, the other day that both gave me chills and made me laugh out loud:

“The only bad thing about the Zombie Apocalypse is pretending like I am not excited”

I think Obama wants a war, and I really wonder if he knows that there seem to be people who would love to give it to him, personally.

Reading comments on news sites, people out in the open are reveling in the idea of killing him!

They must really believe it is just talk- or they really want this communism in a very big way.

I am afraid the democrats are going to push people too far. I really am.

Total civil disobedience, zero compliance with an EO, not a single gun registered or turned in; your move Zero.

And why not, America just reflected the Leftist President America has ever had, and considering Jimmy Carter, LbJ and a hand full of others, that's saying something.

Obama wasn't just elected by non-gun owners, though many of his voters had Saturday Nite Specials.

I'm willing to be their [the left's] LIFE on it, that they're WRONG!

The United States Citizens KNOW that they're going to have to fight TYRANTS in their own government.
You cannot protect life, without the ability to take life.

While you are WAITING for the police to respond, someone could be losing their life.
All people of a responsible age should be armed.

As EternalVigilance reminded us:

Click here to read the 12 page pamphlet.


Let us NEVER FORGET THAT !

Let's subjugate them to OUR end game, DUST!
"COMPROMISE" is a DIRTY word!
People who study the Bible know that COMPROMISE almost always leads to destruction.


It's time to mock the "Gun Control" Zombies!
"Gun Control" is a firm grip, steady breathing, accurate aim (developed by lots of practice), and a slow trigger pull.


The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
We need to learn from the Swiss and implement their "gun control measures" here in the United States right now, today!
These laws are the ones we should shove into the "2nd Amendment Haters" faces.

The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
Let's adopt THEIR LAWS !

Remember: Read Second Amendment: It’s Not About Hunting, IT'S ABOUT TYRANNY .
