AND IMPEACH THE NINTH!
Start the confiscation in a nice sparsely populated state like Montana where gun owners are unlikely to put up much resistance.
Petition to the President of the United States and Members of Congress
To declare that anyone who pledges allegiance to the Flag of our Country is breaking the law is to declare the President of the United States and every member of Congress to be law breakers. It has become abundantly clear that the two judges that voted for this must be impeached and removed from office. Please use the authority that you have been invested with and immediately vote to impeach judges Stephen Reinhardt and Alfred Goodwin.
I speak as an American citizen. The recent decision of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco where the Pledge of Allegiance was ruled Unconstitutional is an attack on America by way of the legal system. We are indeed "One Nation Under God."

Judges that Ruled America is not "One Nation Under God" Must be Impeached!
On June 26, 2002, I was in a meeting out of my office when I received a call that a federal court ruled the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional. My first reaction was to question whether the call was a prank, and when I realized the caller was serious, my reaction turned to shock and outrage.
The decision to declare the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional was handed down by what is known as the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the most liberal circuit court of appeals in the country. This court is the most reversed court in the country by the United States Supreme Court.
Although I am confident that this decision will be reversed, it’s a tragedy that it comes so close on the heels of September 11. The two judges that ruled in the majority essentially spit in the face of every veteran who shed blood to preserve the freedom of all Americans. This court essentially has turned its back on those who are currently overseas to defend this country in the war against terrorism.
The Ninth Circuit has always been a radical, left-leaning court. A recent survey showed that 80%-90% of the Ninth Circuit’s decisions are reversed by the U.S. Supreme Court. In one recent term, the Supreme Court reversed 24 of the Ninth Circuit’s decisions, and 16 of those decision were reversed by a 9-0 opinion by the United States Supreme Court. It’s hard to find the United States Supreme Court unanimously agreeing on anything, but one thing it has agreed on is that the Ninth Circuit is in left field.
It is time for Congress to take action and impeach the two judges on this Federal Court. They will only act if we all get involved and let them know our outrage. I am asking you to sign this petition and forward it to all your friends. You may not be able to go overseas and fight for our freedoms, but you can take a stand by signing this petition.
One of the two judges in the majority, Stephen Reinhardt, is a holdover from the liberal judges appointed by President Carter. This judge is even left of the Ninth Circuit Court. Judge Reinhardt once issued an opinion that the United States Constitution guarantees the right to assisted suicide. This decision was overruled. During one term of the Supreme Court, this same judge was unanimously reversed 5 separate times by the High Court on 5 separate cases. Obviously a judge like this does not belong on a Federal Court.
In just a few days America will celebrate its 226th birthday on the Fourth of July. In spite of what a couple of liberal judges say, this is still "One Nation Under God."It is imperative that every patriotic American signs this petition.
This petition will immediately be forwarded to all 535 members of the U.S. Congress. Those members have the authority to remove these judges. This petition will also be sent to President George W. Bush.
After you sign this petition, please forward this web link to everyone you know. Every family member and friend must join together with us and take a stand against this assault of the American spirit.
Let everyone in America in every schoolhouse and every church house lift their voices and their pens and cry out that we are indeed "One Nation Under God."
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals was asked yesterday to reconsider its Dec. 6 ruling that individuals have no right to bear arms under the Second Amendment.
In ruling 2-1, the court upheld California’s ban on assault weapons. The ruling and the 70-page opinion by Judge Stephen Reinhardt was seen by many observers as a response to U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft’s endorsement of a Fifth Circuit decision that went the other way.
Reinhardt said the Second Amendment never was meant to guarantee gun rights to individuals, but only to state-run militias like the national guard.
Impeach and remove from office.
One way or another, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has to go. It's a rat infested marxist cell.

(1) If the matter has been submitted for decision, further proceedings in respect of the matter shall be had in the same manner and with the same effect as if this Act had not been enacted.

This Act and the amendments made by this Act shall become effective on October 1, 2001.
Simpson’s bill would narrow the 9th Circuit to comprise just California, Arizona and Nevada
Why all of that? It'd still be a huge Circuit. I'd just give them SoCal.
