Bobby Rush: Another bullying gangster making the strong-arming of his neighbors easier.

God has a special place in hell for dictators.

This last election cycle, as well as that of '06 has proved to me that the government will be able to do whatever it pleases without any problems whatsoever. I'm afraid that beyond ranting and raving on various forums, you'll hardly hear a peep.

Unfortunately, brushcop, you are one of the few on this forum who reads the tea leaves as they are, not as we'd wish them to be. The patriots left, especially those anonymous bigtalkers on FR, can easily be isolated, disconnected and demonized one at a time. There will be no popular Alamo rallying point.

Each admirable holdout will be branded as a polygamist, child molester, religious zealot, or worse, a Palinite Conservative and they will be cornered and isolated while the rest of the country lets it happen.

Just ask anyone on a day FR goes down for a couple of hours how prepared they are that day for a "no-knock" at the door.

Furthermore, I'll even tell you how they'll be able to do it!

Instead of the 19 hijackers on 9/11, give them a deer rifle and a scope and put them in the trunk of an impala like John Muhammed did it in the DC Sniper shootings. Spread those 19 guys out all over the country and multiply the mayhem those two caused by 10, all at once.

Since the badguy is a sniper, he erases our argument for guns for self defense because you can't see a sniper to shoot back. So, Bobby Rush and pals will suggest that all honest citizens should want to turn in their guns, as "only terrorists need guns." And the rest of the sheeple will agree to hope and change for the 2nd Amendment.

Case closed, country gone.

therein lies true hope for change...

the real kicker is that this is blatantly against fed law, so why the problem with marshalls not escorting this maoist pig to lockup for conspiracy to violate fed law...???

these asshats that write bs *law* dont get jacked up for violations, but let a serf not see the new fine print and its off to the slammer and revocation [in theory] of Rights...

down is sideways, black is pink etc...

[Wildbill22]

One possible response will be to compel every CCW to use their license and carry it! And if he see’s something like an Impala with it’s trunk puffing gun flash while people die, they smoke it. Maybe the terrorists take out more people but the argument for disarming the people is null and void the first time that happens.

[Gilbo_3]

somethin about ‘we’ll all hang separately’ comes to mind...

[2harddrive]

It’s a Baptism of COMMUNISM!

[unixfox]

This is just the tip of the iceberg...

I think your right Thunder. Soon we will have neighbors pitted against neighbors. All in the name of "safety" of course.

This is what I expected. But look for The Marxist Onada to use executive orders to hurry along the assault on the Second Amendment.

After reading all this, and thinking on it for a while, I would say, if they are looking for Civil War II or American Revolution II, this is the perfect way to get it started.

I cant imagine any fool thinking he wanted to be a cop these days. That badge is going to be the first target to go.

Yes, and please don’t forget serial numbering them so they can’t vote multiple times in any given election—alive or dead.

[The Anti-One]

All law abiding citizens will become criminals over night with the stroke of a pen and we won't be the wiser.

Sad isn't it? They've already turned every single parent into a child neglecting, child abusing, pedophile. It won't be long before they can break into our homes for whatever reason they want and throw us in the clink.

Or, more likely, the gun grabbers highlight the first time a well-meaning citizen mistakenly shoots an innocent in a "smoked" Impala, and we lose by popular acclaim.

Understand the reality here. The Constitution relies on the will and vigilance of the majority of the people. And the majority of people could be indifferent today and admamantly opposed to the 2nd amendment tomorrow, leaving us in an unprotected minority very quickly.

[sam_paine]

Exactly.

Anarchy 101

[The Anti-One]

If they don’t disarm the American public soon, things could get hot.

Do you think not having weapons will stop what's coming? And honestly, do you believe criminals will be without firearms? I know many fine, upstanding, law-abiding citizens that will become criminals the second any bill like this one is passed into law. Those law-abiding citizens will not freely hand over their firearms. Will you?

The enemies of freedom are trying to get an early start, folks...

I agree up to the point you mention “The Constitution relies on the will and vigilance of the majority of the people.” Actually, it doesn’t. A Republic protects the minority. A very good post on FR not long ago...

A Republic -vs- Democracy;

A Republic protects the minority.

True at founding, false now.

This country is no longer a Constitutional Republic.

It was at its founding, and up and until Appomattox 1865.

At that point it became a centralized, consolidated federal democracy.

The states have no practical power to contradict the fedgov.

Not only can the states no longer withhold any meaningful revenue from the Fedgov (direct income withholding) but the states must modify their sovereign authority in order to receive back those funds (i.e. state laws must be in accordance with federal guidelines to receive highway funds back.)

The states are no longer sovereign, and the 9th and 10th amendments are meaningless.
