Contrivance by both sides...
Back room deals are not consistent with informed consent of the governed, the source of just power according to the Declaration of Independence.
0 Conceeding anything against these people is to lose it forever.
Ok if they did wrong(Which the ATF did do) why would you (NRA)negotiate with them? Now Common Sense, if the ATF does negotiate, do they admit they were wrong. How is it the ATF is only dealing with the NRA, What about every Individual out here (and other groups on top of that, example Georgia Gun Owners)??? Where I support the NRA I DO (and Did) NOT Give them the Right To Negotiate Rights away... They are to Amplify Our Voices but in no way can sell them out.
How could Our(others groups) Rights be lost in this, should We not still have the ability to hold the Government Accountable and is this not then an admission of Guilt making the burden of Fact much easier for everyone else???
The Constitution DOES NOT MENTION SPORTING. The purpose of private firearms is to take back a government out of control.
.
the second amendment was not written for deer or bear hunting..
it was written to allow the citizens to overthrow a government gone rogue..
with that in mind, any and all arms that our nations military possesses, we not only have a right, but a DUTY to possess and maintain..
this includes cannon, tank, mortar and grenades..
we also have a right to possess aircraft, naval surface and beneath surface vessels and missiles..
now for the a$$hole who asks if this includes nuclear weapons i have but one question..
if a rogue government has taken control of this country, and their only hope of maintaining control was to nuke cities, would they do it???
if your answer is yes, then my answer is yes, we as citizens have not only a right but a duty to possess nuclear weapons..
i await your answers
Maybe instead of the term microagression, the term ‘incremental aggression’ could be used.
Similar to The boiling pot of frogs syndrome.
Since we built and paid for the nukes, I think we do own them. However, possession and ownership are two different things.
Subject, perhaps, to certain zoning restrictions.
Exactly. 2A is the Constitution's Doomsday provision. For it to have its intended effect, there must be no infringement on the ownership and use by private citizens of effective combat arms, not sporting arms.
The NRA cannot make ‘deals’ to expand the meaning of the nonsensical “Sporting use” clause. They can say they won’t sue the ATF or the NRA will not inform their members about any ‘negotiated’ backroom deals.
The ATF could still be sued and humiliated in court over trying to illegally expand beyond the scope of the law by individuals or by other rights group like the Gun Owners of America.
If I do wrong, do I get a backroom deal too?
