"Silveira v. Lockyer is currently on appeal to the United States Supreme Court. The Justices have a Conference on the case on November 26, 2003. We're hoping to hear on the following Monday that they will be hearing this lawsuit. If they do, it will be the first time in the history of this nation that a true Second Amendment case is argued and briefed on both sides by competent and informed counsel."
After Republican appointed O'Connor and Kennedy have started relying on things like European attitudes, laws, and treaties instead of our Constitution, I wouldn't put too much concern about the nature of Republican or Democrat appointees. They're all gonna do the same thing: ignore the original intent of the Constitution. And there is nothing we can do about it.
Wasn't one in California, DC, New York City, New Jersey, etc. Why would there be one now?
Rudy is an anti-gun RINO. Like Colin Powell, he bacame a Republican because he sensed that's where the power is and will be in the future when he wants to tap into the "inner circle." He and Powell both sold their souls.
I wonder when they'll start to feel the political heat...perhaps not before the marriage amendment passes?
They haven't tried to take them from Georgia, Alabama, TEXAS, Idaho, Montana, and well you get my drift.
I agree at one level that nine out of ten gunowners will turn them in meekly and say "Please don't hurt me." But with 100 million gun owners that still leaves a group of TEN MILLION hard core folks. Many of them will be former military...many with combat experience and some of those will have SpecOps combat experience from every war since WWII.
Look how long it took them to get Eric Rudolf and he was just a dog faced private. Imagine a thousand SEALS with a reason to put their dark arts to good use.
Remember the Y2K scare? My best friend had just retired as an 05 in army special forces. He was living in the Maine woods. He threw a party for four of his old SF teams (most had retired at about the same time)....that's 60 green berets gettin' stewed. When he came home on leave, he told me the plan was to just party and if the world went to hell, they planned to go to the nearby interstate and go up and down to the exits three away and just "DROP THE SPANS" I asked him how and he just grinned. THAT'S the kind of folks you don't want angry at the government!
I asked my buddy why he'd want to do that...blow the bridges and he said that in that location it would force anybody looking for them to come to them through the deep woods and it was just a textbook exercise of the type they'd done their whole careers. He said that even if they wanted (I didn't bother to ask who "they" were) to chopper insert, the boys had ways to deal with that....He was almost gleeful. Almost.....
I don't think the RATS and globalists in the pubbies have thought such a thing through if the USSC trashes the 2nd Amendment. And with the number of RINOS and CFR members on the Court....I expect them to do just that. Did anybody see the ABC evening news tonight? See the piece on the world of the future being here now? It's the mark of the beast...and it's coming soon.
I agree. If they do it, the sooner the better since many Patriots are getting too old to do anything about it.
If they wait 30 years, the younger generation will be so brainwashed that they will eternally lick the jackboot of tyranny.
But if they do it now, they are likely to get their tails handed to them.
I agree totally. I see it already in the kids I teach. I reach maybe 20% of those but who knows how long the truth takes hold in the face of such evil? First of all, I have to remember this thing is not on MAN's timetable. There are forces at work beyond the realm of human experience. So, I accept that and just roll with the ride. I wait and I watch and I stand by to try and make a difference wherever I'm needed. If that effort costs me my life....I'm okay with that. Just so long as it counts. I'm pretty sure my fellow freepers feel the same way. Hey Travis McGee, squantos, wardaddy, shooter2.5, and Jeff Head.....?
