"This is bordering on an extreme case."

So could the Left say when the unconstitutional Roe v Wade is struck down. One man's "extreme case" is another man's "extremist stand."

Pick and choose laws to follow and everyone else will feel they can do the same.

We have seen it on the Left (and on the Right as in the abortion doctor killings).

We are a Nation of Laws or we are nothing.

Considering how much immigration laws are ignored, I would have to say that we are more towards the side of nothing.

Using that logic, we would have been two countries come around 1860 and black people wouldn't be voting in the South.

The lines are murkey, granted, and you shouldn't decide lightly, but you can't merely say all laws are absolute at all times. There are times where they become subordinate to other things.

Bull Pucky! We are a nation of sovereign states and sovereign citizens of the several states. This crap of being a nation of laws makes me sick. What if these dimwits passed a law that said all people who use nickname freedumb2003 on political forums have to be rounded up and burned at the stake? Would we still be a nation of laws in your eyes?

The words of a slave, I'm afraid. What if a federal gun-confiscation law passed and SCOTUS heard and upheld it? Would you obey the law like a good little citizen and hand over your firearms to your gov't masters? If so, you don't deserve to be called an American.

Quotes for you to consider:

"Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people’s teeth and keystone under independence." - George Washington

"If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is no recourse left but in the exertion of the original right of self-defense which is paramount to all forms of positive government." - Alexander Hamilton

The RKBA is a natural right. ....a God-given right. No Beltway dictator wannabes can take it away. The 2nd Amendment as written provides Americans the means of discouraging government from becoming too dictatorial by the threat of insurrection.
