But the right to bear arms is so fundamental it would be implied by natural law even if there were no constitutional provision defending it, even if the second amendment were repealed.

Correct. Congressional, or worse, executive action to take our arms would violate our Constitution three ways. It would violate the 2nd and the 9th Amendments. Thirdly, there is nothing "necessary and proper" in seizing our arms to execute an enumerated power.

In a way, I hope Chairman Obama attempts his gun grab. Let's get to our national decision sooner rather than later. Are we to be free or slaves?

As much as a part of me agrees with you, we need to be careful what we wish for...

No one is going to win this one, this time...Everyone will suffer, and be accountable for their actions...

I believe we are already at the edge, and the other side has the ball...We will have to be the ones to decide when and how we react...

I do not believe we can trust ANYONE in elected office on this issue, and the few we could have trusted, are, and will be unable (feckless) to stave off what has been in place, and been planned for, for decades...
