The Obama administration not only wants to hit us over the head with a hammer, it wants us the buy the hammer. One of the president’s fondest hopes is to disarm America, and he was willing to ignore the will of the American people and circumvent the Congress in order to put into place policies and programs to do just that. He continues to insist that more laws and more bureaucracy will solve the problem and make us safer, which typically means more expense and more complications for law-abiding citizens to purchase a weapon.
Obama also hires toadies such as Eric Holder, and now, Loretta Lynch, who are more than happy to support rioting Black Lives Matters thugs, but who want to prosecute police who are trying to maintain order and citizens who are trying to protect their own lives. It is a set of priorities that is impossible to understand. These attorneys general are also truth challenged, and will bend the facts until they are wholly unrecognizable.
Another day, another tax, page 2:

Where are the veterans who swore to protect the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic……. All it requires is for you to act on what you swore you would actually do. Oh, I forgot, you failed your oath of office by expanding the empire, illegal wars, protecting corporate, military and banker interests.
The Constitution law forbids judges or lawmakers from infringing or passing legislation “editing” any amendment outside a constitutional convention. That amendment process is laid out in Article V of the Constitution, which says that either supermajorities in both houses of Congress or a national convention can propose them and a larger supermajority of states must sign on in order to secure ratification.
2nd Amendment: Original Meaning and Purpose
“A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
When the Constitution was signed on September 17, 1789, federalists claimed the new government would only have limited powers expressly delegated to it. This wasn’t enough for anti-federalists like George Mason, who wanted explicit guarantees to certain rights in order to prevent any potential encroachment by the federal government.
One of them was the right to keep and bear arms. Mason wrote:
“A well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free State”
The Founding Fathers, having just broken away from Great Britain, understood the new federal government they were ratifying might one day become just as tyrannical. If it had the authority to control citizen access to firearms, then it could disarm them, just as the British attempted to do. This would make any attempts to restore liberties futile.
The Second Amendment was specifically included in the Bill of Rights to prevent this.
Two centuries later, we are in an ideological struggle with gun control advocates attempting to alter the meaning of the Second Amendment in order to allow for federal restrictions on our right to bear arms. Not surprisingly, they completely ignore what the ratifiers of the Constitution and the Second Amendment had to say, because all pertinent historical documents contradict them.
For example, when the Founders wrote of a “well regulated” militia, they meant militias needed to be well regulated through training and drilling in order to be effective in battle. This could only happen if citizens had unrestricted access to firearms.
James Madison, the father of the Constitution, said in 1789 that “A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country.”
An example of a well regulated militia under Madison’s definition were the Minutemen at Concord and Lexington, who had drilled on fields in preparation for war.
As to the meaning of the word “militia,” it has nothing to do with the National Guard. There is already a clause in the Constitution that specifically authorizes arming them.
So what is a militia as defined by the Founders? Mason said they were “the whole people, except for a few public officials.”
In fact, there was a universal acceptance among both federalists and anti-federalists as to the importance of the right to bear arms.
Alexander Hamilton wrote in Federalist 28 that “if the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no recourse left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense,” a right which he declared to be “paramount.”
And then there is clause “shall not be infringed.” There is no exception to this contained anywhere in the amendment.
Zacharia Johnson, a delegate to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, summed up the meaning of the Second Amendment when he declared that “The people are not to be disarmed of their weapons. They are left in full possession of them.”
Full possession. Not some. Not most. Full possession of their weapons. The feds were to keep their hands off entirely.
The Founders made it very clear what the Second Amendment means. But if we do not fight against any and all attempts by the feds to infringe upon our right to keep and bear arms, then it loses all relevant meaning.
Protect the 2nd Amendment. I have two family members who died from guns. I will always respect the 2nd Amendment anyway. Get rid of these jerks who are trying to render us defenseless. This PC c**p is sooooo old. Stop the selling out of America. Dear God in Heaven help us. AMEN.
How about we give 10 million to the first constitutional sherif to arrest her,$#%&!@*we’d save 70 million. Problem solved.
