The Obama anti-gun crowd has decided to pursue the last option left to a tyrant: When all else fails, would-be dictators devise legislation aimed at confiscating our guns.
We should expect the political left to become desperate as President Obama’s approval ratings drop below 40 percent and the full impact sinks in that Republican David Jolly’s win in the Florida congressional special election last week signals voters are in a mood to punish Democrats for the unfolding Obamacare debacle.
But Tea Party Loyalists and Second Amendment Patriots have reason to take heart that we can beat back the gun-control activists by keeping on the agenda the imperial Obama presidency that prefers rule by executive order to the Constitutional limits on the presidency imposed by the Separation of Powers doctrine.
In Connecticut, tens of thousands of residents have decided to defy new state gun-control laws by refusing to register their firearms in defiance.
We’ve heard enough of the radical-liberal unsubstantiated argument that “gun-free” zones will protect students from school shootings like the tragedy that occurred at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, in December 2012.
We know the truth: Namely, that gun-free school zones only turn innocent students into victims with no ability to defend themselves, when the solutions involve placing armed guards in the school while licensing responsible teachers and school supervisors to carry their weapons openly when on duty at the school.
The truth is the school shootings are typically fostered by a radical-liberal agenda that encourages psychiatrists to drug students, not because they have real psychological problems, but because drugged up students are easier for unqualified and substandard public school teachers to control.What’s obvious is that as the 2014 elections draw closer and it becomes obvious Barack Obama’s incredible shrinking presidency has saddled Congressional Democrats facing voters in the 2014 November elections with Obamacare, President Obama’s signature legacy of government overreach and bureaucratic failure.The New Jersey Assembly Law and Public Safety Committee has advanced by a 5-to-3 partisan vote to the state legislature a gun control measure that would limit the size of ammunition magazines.
Not surprisingly, parents of Newtown victims traveled to New Jersey twice, claiming many students escaped death because the shooter had to reload his magazine.
Tea Party Loyalists and Second Amendment Patriots are rallying once again to oppose and resist this new attempt at gun control in New Jersey.
But, the anti-gun lobby never stops.
Secretary of State John Kerry continues to push the United Nations measure that would resort to international law trumping U.S. state law in an effort to confiscate guns from U.S. citizens in obvious disregard of the Second Amendment.
When martial law descended upon Boston in the wake of the bombing at the end of the Boston Marathon we saw televised the type of law enforcement military-like shut down of a neighborhood and the resultant house-to-house search of homes in the locked-down area that could easily lead to law enforcement seizure of guns, as men dressed in black gear paraded with automatic weapons through the streets of Watertown.
The ideological intensity of the anti-gun political left defies facts and logic.
The Gun Owners of America document that firearms are used 2.5 million times a year in the United States in self-defense, approximately 6,850 times a day.
Yet the Obama administration is desperate in its panicked need to change the public agenda from the damage Obamacare continues to inflict on health care in America in their ill advised attempt to expand the growth of big government to control one-sixth of the U.S. economy.
Thus, gun grabbing has become a top priority for President Obama and his radically liberal Democratic Party minions in state legislatures around the nation.
We should expect President Obama and the Democrats in Congress about to be defeated in November to push as hard as they can to put into law every gun-control measure possible, before Tea Party Loyalists and Second Amendment Patriots turn the tide against them.
We’ve seen the threat to the Second Amendment. Now Congress needs to see how Tea Party loyalists feel in return.
Our gun rights are in jeopardy, but we have not yet begun to demand Congress must stand up to defend the Second Amendment by passing laws to roll back Obama’s executive orders limiting our right to own firearms.
Washington needs to know that Tea Party Loyalists intend to win – either now by impeaching Barack Obama for his back-door attack on the Second Amendment, and/or by throwing at the ballot box in November 2014, and again in November 2016 any and all incumbent members of Congress – Republicans and Democrats alike – who do not stand with us in the defense of our gun rights.

As for your specious allegation of hyperbole, the "poison pill" comment comes directly from Vande Pol's own words, not mine:
"Frankly, I think such wishful thinking is a sort of vanity, where that “original meaning” is elevated to what they believe or wish it to have meant, when in fact that text might instead have been a deliberately-hidden poison pill (hence my comment re commas in the supremacy clause in Treaty Law: The Constitution's Original Trojan Horse, posted on this site)."Such an accusation is tantamount to a charge of treason. If you think you can support such nonsense, have at it. I have better things to do with my time than subvert the Constitution on FR's bandwidth.
Have a good evening.
Peace,
SR
Then you're out on a limb here on FR. The reception to the first version of this article went for over 120 posts.
Such an accusation is tantamount to a charge of treason.
You continue to ignore what is posted to go on with your bogus claim. I said that it was a choice made under duress. There was a reason Franklin had minders posted to him for the entire convention. There was a reason the Federalists made sure Jefferson was out of the country. There was a reason Henry did not attend. As to whether it is radical to accuse Hamilton of perfidy, a Google search of "Alexander Hamilton" and "traitor" turns up 1.5 million pages.
Yes, I do.
If so, what would it take to reform it and roll it back, and to what would you roll it back to?
I believe nothing short of removing every elected, appointed, and hired government office holder, official, and worker, will be required to reform the U.S. government.
Every single person connected to the federal government, in any way, must be removed from 'service' to excise the rot that infects it. We would then need to set about refilling only those positions that are absolutely essential to the most basic functions of the government.
At the same time, you'd have to kick all of the lobbyists, academics, media trolls, money men, foundations, think tanks, consultants, advisors, bimbos, ex-politicos, crony capitalists, and assorted left-wing detritus off Capitol Hill, too.
Doing the above will open the door to honestly reforming our government, but how? A revolution at the ballot box isn't going to get it done, no matter how many Republicans we put in office. Screaming our heads off on the internet isn't going to get it done, no matter how many of us complain.
Only one thing can accomplish what I'm talking about, and that's real action. I mean, butts out of the chairs and into the streets. By the tens of millions. There doesn't have to be bloodshed or violence to accomplish this - just numbers. Overwhelming, unrelenting, overpowering numbers of determined Americans, all showing up and saying, "You're All Fired!"
What's needed is a force that is so huge, it cannot be resisted.
As far as where I'd "roll it back to", I'd say about the year 1900 ought to do it.
P.S. You do vote don't you????
Thank you for your response my friend, you’ve augmented everything I’ve tried to get across. Fine about page also. God bless us all and the greatest country on earth.
“...Anyone who thinks the government is going to “take their guns away”, needs to go ahead and sell ...”
Amen wku...
They can only “take” what people willingly “give” - or “give up” as it were.
People either comply - or they don’t. It’s a choice. There are consequences either way, but it is still a choice.
This is a very important lesson. You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.
Stockdale was good, decent, brave American Patriot.
“You do vote don’t you????” Yes, I believe it is my duty to vote.
