Go for it, Commie Libs.
"THE Conventions of a number of the States having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best insure the beneficent ends of its institution ..."
If the BoR did not exist, Congress would STILL have no power to limit speech, take away guns, impose a state religion etc ... because WE NEVER GAVE THEM THE POWER TO DO SO! (stupid commerce clause decisions by the USSC notwithstanding.)
Hamilton was right in his claim that by including a BoR, it would imply that the Congress would otherwise have had the power and that unscrupulous persons would use that implication to extend thier power.
MOLON LABE !
From my cold dead hands.
These people just don't get it. The government exists at our pleasure; it serves us. We don't serve it.
Alex was coached to say this. It is a lightning rod statement designed to get the name out there.
Name it, asshat. Be there or be square, baby.
Somebody sign Alex up for the 4 day course at Front Sight. She will come out the other end addicted to the free .45 ACP they will give her. LOL!!! As we all know shooting guns is tons of fun.
OK, Alex, as much as I love the 2nd Amend., there’s nothing saying it can’t be repealed. So, just ask a Dem Congresscritter to propose it in Congress, then I’m sure they’ll vote it out to the states (after all, nobody would have their political career crash and burn because they tried to rewrite the Bill of Rights) and three-quarters of the states will support the idea.
Sure...and I’m Ida Lapino.
Thank god, I live in Florida, “the Gunshine” State.
They know we are getting more prepared every day for their coming violence. They are also afraid that we could actually use our rights of self defense to stymie the government.
They know very well that the 2nd amendment was written so that we can stop a government that is coming after us. That really burns their toast. That we could actually resist.
No problem. There is an amendment process built right into the Constitution. It's not something your boy in the White Hut can do by ezecutive order, but there is a way if you're really up for it. If you think you got the votes, go for it. Don't blame me, however, when the fires of electoral hell come raining down upon you and you and the Commie party get exiled to the political wilderness for 5 or 6 decades.
Travis: 2A repeal ping.
ATF failed at gun running and blaming it on gun owners, they’re going back to square one now with “talking points”. Come and take it, Sissy Alex.
Like many of the Amendments, they only reinforce the fact that the people retain their rights and only relinquish a few to the federal government.
If the 2nd Amendment were removed we would still have the right to be armed. The hate America crowd would need a new Amendment banning guns not just eliminating the 2nd.
The Soviet Union had a constitution where everything was forbidden except a very few rights relinquished by the government and loaned to the people. Progressives in our schools (all levels) and our media prefer the Soviet Unions constitution.
We are now two societies of almost equal population living in the same space. Lovers of the founders and our constitution cannot coexist with those who prefer the Marxist world. They are an enemy within and unfortunately we were asleep, too busy, did not see, our country has been rotting from within for decades by this cancer.
Typical lib think: ". . . who gets to have a firearm and the right to kill . . . " Who indeed? The answer for libs of course is the state. Libs and radicals, anyone of a leftist bias for that matter, always wants to kill off the enemy (includes fascists who are leftists, not conservatives, as we all know). Whether it's the enemy of the people, of the revolution, the environment, you name it. Lurking in the background of all, repeat all, leftist thinking is the desire to purify the world by killing off all their enemies. That is why they use they labeling process continually, create a label, apply it to someone or some group, whip up an outcry about it, now the target is dehumanized and the left can feel good about their dirty deeds. The entire history of revolutions excepting the American Revolution is a history of horrors and murder perpetrated by the revolutionaries upon their enemies. . . . oops I forgot, we're all pretty well boned up on the Alinsky stuff by now, I guess we already know this.
But there you have, embedded in the so called question is a hidden statement of leftist goals.
What really needs to be exorcized is the MSNBC brothel and all the presstitutes that screw around there for money
That is what I expect from the Communist Control Freaks at MSNBC
