The U.S. government has no rights.

It only has powers that were delegated to it by the several states and the people.

Those powers are few and limited by the constraints of the Bill of Rights, among which is the right to defend oneself with force of arms.

I agree with you. I was wondering where she found the right to do anything> The Constitution gives the people rights, and takes them away from the government.

Someone needs to educate that fat evil bitch that the government derives it's power from the consent of the governed, and I sure as hell do not consent!

...The U.S. government has no rights.

Liberals have a very difficult time understanding such a simple concept.
But, liberalism is all about regulation and control of every aspect of life, and that requires absolute obedience to their beliefs.

King George had some bad moments at Lexington and on the road back to Concord when he in his own mind tried to “reasonably regulate” the Colonists arms and ammunition. The ultimate result of his over reach in part included the Second Amendment. It’s not just a place holder in the Bill of Rights.

The U.S. government has no rights.

Thus exposing her disregard for the actual rights of Citizens which the government was established to protect and her complete misunderstanding of the Constitution she has sworn to uphold and defend.

This is she whom many would ignorantly choose as our future POTUS. They willfully place chains upon themselves and want them placed on all of us against our will.

“The U.S. government has no rights.

She should know this, because they actually taught civics class when she was in school. The fact that she (a previously elected official) didn’t correct Skippy tells me all I need to know about her.

Give over your weapons, give over your freedom. It’s really that simple.
