“Won’t be obeyed.
They will go for ammo.
That’ll be interesting.
Sooner or later, we will have to react.
And react hard.”

Like Capt. Johnny Parker said om Concord Green that day in 1776, “If it’s war they want let it begin here, let it begin now”.

Ever since FDR threatened to pack the SCOTUS, the SCOTUS has cowered in fear from that threat. The trouble is, that like any other type of blackmail, once you give in to the threat, all you have left is additional threats. More demands. You become a slave.

Long before the election, the Democrats once again threatened to pack the court. And no matter how many times Chief Justice Roberts bends the knee to them, they will just keep demanding that the court ignore the constitution and do what they want.

You must think nobody’s done any planning for these types of events.

You are correct in terms of punctuation rules, but I’m afraid the Bill of Rights has it with the comma. Anyone knows what it means though, comma or not.

“The 2nd Amendment recognizes “militias” of citizens who have the
right to keep and bear arms.*

Please see this video explaining the second amendment. Language warning.

If it is a federal law or EO by the pres, it matters not what state you are from.

The ATF Marshals, Home Security....whatever will be ordered to carry it out.

We need a Congressional Gun Owners Caucus-—and here’s the Congressman to organize it


House Republican reacts to Dems’ fit over guns in her home

Claude Taylor, a former White House staff member for Bill Clinton, criticized Boebert via Twitter.

“Unsafe gun storage is no laughing matter. Is this Fascist fraulein the best Colorado’s 3rd can do?”
Boebert responded swiftly: “Who says this is storage? These guns are ready for use.”


US Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo: “I am busy fighting against the left’s real fetish.....
lusting for power....and for stripping Americans of their constitutional rights.
Democrats mock the Constitution and disrespect the everyday Americans I was elected to represent....
Democrats know only attacking, degrading, and insulting members like me.”

My position is that the meaning of the word “infringe” and the intention of the Founders is that the Right to keep and bear Arms, should not be trespassed upon by ANY LAW.
The word “fringe,” implies “edge,” which certainly was meant that there will be not even a close approach to regulate that right which was given only second place behind “Free Speech!”
Most gun laws that are on the books, today, are unconstitutional. Biteme is unable to reason. How can he suggest a law or issue an Executive Order when he is insane?

All it takes is a governor of a large state saying No You Won’t Enforce That Here and calling up their state militia to prevent federal law enforcement from doing so.

Then it isn’t the fed moving against individuals, but against a state government.

Also known as CIVIL WAR American Style.

If the state is a Florida, Texas or Ohio a militia callup could bring out MILLIONS of volunteers to support the governor.

I am ready to answer a callup by my governor and have let him know it - you need to let your governor know that you will do the same with your governor IF you are in a state with a governor who isn’t a dirtbag.

This is the LEGAL way to resist a federal government decree the ONLY LEGAL WAY.

Forget about hogcrap like Convention of States and court challenges.

We are STILL a union of states and the feds can’t dictate how a governor runs their state.

This is how the Civil War began - Lincoln sent a call to state governors for militia volunteers (which he had a right to do).

He didn’t count on some states not only refusing but calling up militia to resist Lincoln’s degree - an effort which failed because only relatively weak states opposed Lincoln’s order.

It has to be strong states like Florida Texas Ohio Georgia and Indiana.

Together those states have a population of nearly 80 million and a 10% callup would bring 8 million volunteers - more than the entire US military.

MILITIA bring their own-
Transport
Weapons
Food
- a callup by the governor makes them LEGAL “well regulated militia” according to the Constitution and they come out OVERNIGHT.

Instant army.

Contact your governors and let them know you will answer a militia callup and that you want them to use a militia callup to resist any even QUESTIONABLE executive decrees.

If a constitutional amendment throws out the 2nd Amendment that is legal, but any other decree by the courts or a president is QUESTIONABLE at best.

This is what the coup operators FEAR MOST and is the only thing holding them back.

The day they become certain there will be no militia resistance is when the ATF and national guard starts banging on doors at 4am and old army bases become re-education centers.

what do we do when the police are actually standing before us.. demanding them ?

Regular police won't do this. They're smarter and are not as WOKE as the Biden/Harris regime thinks. It may be SWAT teams and National Guardsmen but the cops I know wouldn't obey.

“Sounds good, but there is one small problem.”

I assumed that people are aware enough to know that it takes concerted action by people to stop a tyranny.

No, one person at a time won’t work.
