Anti-gunners constantly tell us that no one is coming after our guns. They love to say that they support the Second Amendment, but
well, theyre lying. Maybe not all of them, mind you. Some believe they can support gun control legislation and support the Second Amendment. Yeah, I knowI dont get it either. But others? Oh, theyre lying like a politician on the campaign trail.
Of course, Im not telling you anything you didnt already know. However, now we have proof.
You see, a new Quinnipiac poll shows that 33 percent of Democrats polled favored repealing the Second Amendment. Compare that to just 14 percent of Independents, which include people to the left of the Democratic party, and just four percent of Republicans.
Theyre not coming for our guns, just our sacred right to keep and bear arms.
Make no mistake; a repeal of the Second Amendment is an essential item on their agenda. It has to be. Ever since the Heller decision solidified the right to keep and bear arms as an individual right, the anti-gun left has known they couldnt enact the gun bans theyd prefer with the Second Amendment intact. They need to dismantle it.
Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens laid out his reasons why we should repeal the amendment in the pages of The New York Times already. It was a catalyst for many, a justification in their mind. It gave them the political cover to admit what we already knew.
Oh, I was just swayed by the arguments of a former SCOTUS justice, they might tweet. And its difficult, if not impossible, to prove otherwise. But we know.
What they dont understand is that while we call ourselves Second Amendment supporters, its not the amendment itself we side with. Its the spirit beneath that amendment we cherish. You could rename the amendment Boogie-Boogie Kosh-Kosh, and wed become Boogie-Boogie Kosh-Kosh supporters. What we support is the idea that free men and women have a right to own weapons, to own the means to defend themselves and their families from anyone, be it a street thug or an Oval Office Tyrant.
We hold no illusions, though.
Repeal the amendment, and we can say goodbye to our right to own guns. Stevenss op-ed makes the rationale clear; they want to pave the way for more gun control. Theyre not pretending the amendment isnt necessary. In fact, their arguments illustrate just how vital that Second Amendment protection is.
When the Bill of Rights was being debated, there was concern that people would think the rights protected in the Bill of Rights would form the complete list of rights that should be protected. In the end, however, the measure passed and we got the first ten amendments to the Constitution.
Yet the wisdom of that passage is clearly illustrated by anti-gun Democrats who clearly want to repeal the Second Amendment in order to impose harsher, more strict regulations on guns and gun owners.
The problem is, thats how you spark real trouble. A genuine effort to go after our right to keep and bear arms may well be the last straw for many Americans.
Do it, and the country itself will be in peril.
What could go wrong? Repeal the whole damn bill of rights, Democrats!
You want to ban everything except gay marriage and weed
Repealing does nothing. Government did not give me the rights in the Bill of Rights and they cannot remove them.
They can try to ban those rights, but they are going against God, which is nothing new. Rights are not something they have jurisdiction over, privileges they do.
By trying to remove rights, they simply make the government illegitimate.
33% of Democrats are Communists.....................
Excellent.
Combine that with the zero out of three republicans and independents who support its repeal, and it’s obvious they are quite away from mustering the 2/3 majority of congress they would need in order to formally propose its repeal, and even further from the 3/4 majority of the states whose approval they would need in order to actually accomplish its repeal.
That means they will continue to attack our freedoms thought the courts. That is where we need to be ready to annihilate them.
Oh please! They all want to get rid of the Second Amendment. Only one third of them are stupid enough to admit it.
The Dems want to replace the Second amendment with a new Gestapo. People such as Lynch and Brennan and Clapper would head it up.
Let them try.
The bloodshed (mostly theirs) will be horrific.

************************************************************
Assume voters equally divided between R,D,I at 33% each.
33% of Dems = 10% of voters
14% of Ind = 5% of Voters
4% of Rep = 1.25% of voters
So, approximately 16.25% of all voters want to see the 2A repealed.
Frankly I believed the number would be higher given the volume of the rhetoric today.
Then they are domestic enemies of the Constitution and deserve to treated as such.
Then 1 in 3 dems should immediate go to the airport and leave America forever. Nuff said.
“One In Three Democrats Support Second Amendment Repeal”......
Bet there are at least that many “Rinos” that did the same thing, perhaps more.
Repealing any of the Constitution is NOT acceptable at any time. The document was put in place to protect all of us from those who would advocate undermining the one thing that has made America special. America is not broken because of what the Constitution promotes and protects, it is the PEOPLE who have no regard for its purpose. Those same people only want things their way. The Constitution is not broken, don’t fix it.
One in 3 Democrats should be publicly hanged and left to rot.
One in three Democrats are felons.
They Bleet like Sheep
As they are herded into
Cattle Cars and their crys
As they are gassed
will be
Heard..
By No One.
“You see, a new Quinnipiac poll shows that 33 percent of Democrats polled favored repealing the Second Amendment. “
Ok then, let it be repealed...for them.
Actually, three out of three support repeal but only one will publicly admit it.
“Then they are domestic enemies of the Constitution and deserve to treated as such.”
I take it personally.
“Bet there are at least that many Rinos that did the same thing, perhaps more.”
Like that wobbly prick governor of Vermont.
