TN Senator Stacey Campfield Refuses To Back Off Pressure Cooker Joke
Forward carry handle and pistol grip. You gotta love it.
Oh and in case I forget:
"You can have my pressure cooker when you pry it from my jam encrusted fingers"
and:
"If pressure cookers are outlawed, granny becomes an outlaw"
I'm going to have my say and then you can read what Ted Nugent wrote. I'm sure this will piss off some people but hey, you should learn to live with disappointment.
The islamist whackjob who survived the shootout with LEO's in Massachuesetts gave up his right to any protections under the Constitution because of one simple fact: he lied when he took the oath of citizenship. He took that oath knowing he was going to, at some point in the near future, set explosive devices and kill Americans. He took that oath under false pretenses and for purposes of evasion, which is in direct violation of the oath. He should have been shot down in the street like the rabid dog he is.
Time to stretch neck of jihadist punk
by Ted Nugent
If the bombing, killings and maiming of Bostonians by the two voodoo whack-job
jihadists in Boston isn’t maddening enough, the next tsunami of insults should drive any American addicted to common sense crazy.
The jihadist punk in custody is obviously guilty of committing murder, terrorist acts and a whole book of other crimes, but he won’t be brought to justice.
Justice
is supposed to be swift. At least that’s how our Founding Fathers thought
it should be.
Imagine
if this jihadist punk had basically committed the same crimes 150 years
ago. He would have been swinging from an oak tree in Boston Common no
longer than 60 days from the date of his arrest. That would be justice.
But
that won’t happen to this guilty voodoo vermin. If he’s ever executed, it
will be many years from now after our so-called justice system goes through its
strange eternal, time-wasting, court-and-lawyer maneuvers from hell. The ugly
truth is that by the time this voodoo punk is executed, America will probably
have had to deal with any number of other bombings and killings by other voodoo
nuts.
He
probably won’t go to trial for more than a year due to court-sanctioned delays.
Once he’s found guilty, he will be afforded any number of appeals that will
take more years, possibly more than a decade. The young voodoo nut has got
a long life in front of him, thanks to America’s screwed-up justice
system.
A
perfect example of justice delayed is terminal voodoo mass murderer Nidal Malik
Hasan, who killed 13 soldiers and wounded 32 others at Fort Hood in
2009. Allahu Akbar, my ass.
This
voodoo punk’s trial is finally set to begin on May 29 of this year – almost
four long years after he shouted “Allahu Akbar” and began his voodoo-inspired
rampage in yet another gun-free zone.
This
four-year dastardly delay to bring this guilty punk to justice is damnable.
What’s equally damnable is that our Defense Department categorizes his
slaughter rampage as “workplace violence,” rather the overtly obvious
act of voodoo terrorism that everyone knows it was. Workplace
violence? Talk about spitting on the graves of our dead heroes.
Hasan
is a voodoo terrorist who should have been the feature attraction at a
neck-stretching party on the grounds of Fort Hood years ago. I would have
supplied the rope, the lumber for the gallows and gladly pulled the hatch on
this soulless rabid dog.
There
is no excuse for constant delays and years of appeals when there is
overwhelming and obvious guilt.
This
isn’t justice – it’s a joke.
Justice
occurred in 1865 when the all the conspirators who assisted John Wilkes Booth
in
assassinating President Lincoln had their necks stretched less than three
months after Booth killed President Lincoln.
Had
our modern system of justice been in play in 1865, Booth’s conspirators would
have died in prison of old age instead of having their necks properly
stretched.
There
is nothing swift or just about our justice system. Turtles are speed
demons compared to American jurisprudence, which has been hijacked by
soulless lawyers and is being terrorized by years and years of
intentionally engineered costly delays.
By
the time the Boston voodoo punk’s trials, appeals and maneuvering are all
exhausted and he’s finally sent to voodoo land, this legal charade will have
cost the American taxpayers tens of millions of dollars. More unnecessary
insults.
My
dream of real justice would be a July 4 celebration of stringing this
son-of-a-b-tch up in the Boston Common and letting the crows pick on his
rotting flesh.
There
will be no swift justice for the Boston voodoo punk. He’s got a long life
ahead of him. How pathetic.

Obama Arranged Benghazi Trip That Resulted In Murder Of US AMB Chris StevensThe evidence suggests that the Obama administration has not simply been engaging, legitimating, enriching and emboldening Islamists who have now taken over or are ascendant in much of the Middle East.
Starting in March 2011, when American diplomat Christopher Stevens was designated the liaison to the “opposition” in Libya, the Obama administration has been arming them, including jihadists like Abdelhakim Belhadj, the leader of the al Qaeda franchise known as the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group. "

With the Sequester, the Obama Administration is taking $27 million from the 9/11 Victim's Fund even while it gives Muslim Brotherhood-led Egypt a cash infusion of $250 million.
In other words, the American victims of terrorism are making financial sacrifices while the ideological fathers of modern jihad are getting an economic stimulus – at U.S. taxpayer expense.
It's hard to imagine a more foolish and hurtful use of taxpayer money.
Our government must wake up. Make your voice heard. We know our budget must be cut, but before the victims of terrorism make sacrifices – before our military makes sacrifices – the Muslim Brotherhood must be cut off.
Jihadists should get nothing from American taxpayers.
Egypt's Christians are begging our government not to support their oppressors. We must stand with them. We must stand with our own families.

When you stop being concerned about the safety of college women and become more concerend about the feelings of others who may become uncomfortable thinking there MAY be an armed student in their vicinity, you have ceased to be a rational, thinking member of society and you must remove yourself from society so as not to invoke the ire of those of us who would rather just bitch-slap you so hard your grandmother will feel it.
Or, a workable alternative would be for you to convert to islam and move to some country with lots of sand, the name of which ends in "stan" where your attitude towards women would be welcomed with understanding and sympathy.
Of course, you could just suffer the same fate as any one of the victims who were brave enough to talk about their experiences. Gang rape by ugly men. I wonder if you'd want an armed student close by then? I wonder if you'd care about the feelings of the staff and other students?

Now that the election is over, the left doesn’t seem so concerned about that "war on women". And for people who are supposedly all about protecting women, the left sure has a bizarre way of showing it. Once again, a Democrat politician has trivialized a rape survivor’s horrible experience and point-of-view, while arrogantly explaining why she doesn’t need a gun.

Muslim doctor (allegedly) rapes, murders and then abuses the dead body of a self-employed cleaning woman in Ohio.
Dr. Ali Salim Raped, Killed Pregnant Woman: Deanna Ballman,23 Murdered Responding To Craigslist Ad, Continued To Abuse Corpse And Solicit Other Women To Kill
Salim had put up an ad on Craigslist looking for models to which Ballamn responded to, but told her family she was responding to a housecleaning ad. In September investigators searched the Salim's Ohio home and confiscated his laptop, camera, and other items.
Kyle Rohrer, assistant county prosecutor said Salim mistreated Ballman's corpse "in a very inhumane way."
According to 10TV, Salim had sent a woman an offer to paint organs on her body for $300 in September and insisted that the work environment be 'drama free,' adding 'I just don't need the drama.' Salim allegedly told the woman, "wear anything but black or brown bra, and panties are essential. I will take most shots from the back."
The coroner found Ballamn had died from a heroin overdose and had substances such as, morphine and codeine in her system. Ballman's urine contained morphine, monoacetylmorphine, codeine, acetylocodine and diacetylmorphine.
Rohrer said, "We believe this is not an isolated incident and that he remains a threat to others in the public if he's released." Rohrer also claims that since Salim is a Pakistani native he has reason to flee the country and asked for his bail to be raised to $5 million. Salim's attorney, Sam Shamansky doesn't believe his client had reason to leave the country after living her for almost 20-years, "If he was going to flee, it would have happened,"

Biden on Self-Defense: Fire a Shotgun in the Air
On Tuesday, Vice President Joe Biden appeared on a Facebook townhall, where he was asked a question about gun ownership by a female viewer from Parent Magazine. Biden’s suggestion: nobody needs an AR-15, especially women. Instead, he stated, “If you want to protect yourself, get a double-barrel shotgun.” In fact, Biden went further, describing his strategy for home defense:Ben Shapiro is Editor-At-Large of Breitbart News and author of the book “Bullies: How the Left’s Culture of Fear and Intimidation Silences America” (Threshold Editions, January 8, 2013).
I said, 'Jill, if there's ever a problem, just walk out on the balcony here ... walk out and put that double-barrel shotgun and fire two blasts outside the house.’ … You don't need an AR-15 — it's harder to aim, it's harder to use, and in fact you don't need 30 rounds to protect yourself. Buy a shotgun! Buy a shotgun!
There are a few problems with this. First, it is illegal to discharge a firearm in public in Delaware, as it is in virtually every state. Shooting a gun into the air would arguably not constitute self-defense and poses a threat to the public, especially since a slug would come down at some point.
Second, if you have a typical double-barreled shotgun, the gun only holds two shells. If you fire twice into the air, you have just disarmed yourself.
Third, shotguns are used in more murders every year in the United States than the rifles the left wants to ban.
Fourth, for Biden to suggest that women are incapable of handling AR-15s, even as the Obama administration pushes women into frontline military combat, is ridiculous to say the least.
Leave it to Joe Biden to repeatedly undermine his own gun control case – and to get basic self-defense with a shotgun wrong.
Gun Companies Refuse Sales to State Governments with Strict Gun Laws
Disappointed with New York State lawmakers and other jurisdictions around the country who have passed strict gun control legislation, the companies—composed of firearm manufacturers, gunsmiths, and sporting goods retailers—have announced these policies in the past week.
Their various statements emphasize that such laws create a class of government employees with rights and and a class of citizens without rights. Thus, they refuse to aid the enforcement of such inequality.
The announcements read:
Effective today, in an effort to see that no legal mistakes are made by LaRue Tactical and/or its employees, we will apply all current State and Local Laws (as applied to civilians) to state and local law enforcement / government agencies. In other words, LaRue Tactical will limit all sales to what law-abiding citizens residing in their districts can purchase or possess.
Due the passing of this legislation, Olympic Arms would like to announce that the State of New York, any Law Enforcement Departments, Law Enforcement Officers, First Responders within the State of New York, or any New York State government entity or employee of such an entity - will no longer be served as customers.
In short, Olympic Arms will no longer be doing business with the State of New York or any governmental entity or employee of such governmental entity within the State of New York - henceforth and until such legislation is repealed, and an apology made to the good people of the State of New York and the American people.
The Federal Government and several states have enacted gun control laws that restrict the public from owning and possessing certain types of firearms. Law-enforcement agencies are typically exempt from these restrictions. EFI, LLC does not recognize law-enforcement exemptions to local, state, and federal gun control laws. If a product that we manufacture is not legal for a private citizen to own in a jurisdiction, we will not sell that product to a law-enforcement agency in that jurisdiction.
We will not sell arms to agents of the state of New York that hold themselves to be "more equal" than their citizens.
As long as the legislators of New York think they have the power to limit the rights of their citizens, in defiance of the Constitution, we at Templar will not sell them firearms to enforce their edicts.
Templar Custom is announcing that the State of New York, any Law Enforcement Departments, Law Enforcement Officers, First Responders within the State of New York, or any New York State government entity or employee will no longer be served as customers.
Based on the recent legislation in New York, we are prohibited from selling rifles and receivers to residents of New York. We have chosen to extend that prohibition to all governmental agencies associated with or located within New York. As a result we have halted sales of rifles, short barreled rifles, short barreled shotguns, machine guns, and silencers to New York governmental agencies.
Recently, companies such as LaRue Tactical and Olympic Arms have announced that they will no longer sell prohibited items to government agencies and personnel in states that deny the right to own those items to civilians. It has been and will continue to be Cheaper Than Dirt’s policy to not to sell prohibited items to government agencies and/or agents in states, counties, cities, and municipalities that have enacted restrictive gun control laws against their citizens. We support and encourage other companies that share in this policy.Second Amendment activist groups Guns Save Life and Grass Roots North Carolina are currently urging big gun manufacturers Sig Sauer, Smith and Wesson, and Glock to halt their sales to government agencies within states that have clamped down on their residents' right to bear arms.

Fort Hood hero: President Obama ‘betrayed’ shooting victims | RedState
From disrespecting CPO Chris Kyle by refusing to send anyone to his Memorial Service, to the SEAL who took out Bin Laden, to LEO Munley, Dear Leader and it's legions/minions have demonstrated quite clearly how they really feel about the people who volunteer to be the Sheepdogs hunting "things that go bump in the night."
During the shooting that many consider a terrorist attack, Major Nidal Hasan, an Army psychiatrist and a practicing Muslim of Palestinian descent, shouted “Allahu Akbar” as he opened fire and mercilessly shot 44 soldiers preparing to deploy to Iraq and one civilian killing 13. Munley was shot three times in her confrontation with Hasan.
You can watch video of the shootings aftermath here.
Initially, Obama tried to capitalize on the heroic actions of Munley and her partner Sergeant Mark Todd. They were included as guests in the First Lady’s box for the 2010 State of the Union address. A few months later they were again honored by Obama at the 2010 National Association of Police Organizations TOP COPS award winners ceremony in the Rose Garden.
Despite the fact that there is extensive evidence that Hasan was in communication with al Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki prior to the attack, the victims were denied Purple Hearts and the government shooting has been treating the incident as “workplace violence” instead of “combat related” or terrorism. You can read a redacted report on the FBI’s investigation of Hasan’s ties to al-Awlaki here. Al-Awlaki was killed in a U.S. drone attack in Yemen on Sept. 30, 2011.

In another story, a former cop who wrote a lengthy manifesto praising left-leaning celebs and media personalities before killing at least three police officers is still on the run…and surprisingly gaining supporters.

Thats right. Tell them NOT to do something, that always works.
Former US Navy SEAL Chris Kyle was shot and killed by a former US Marine at a veterans event at a gun range in Texas on Saturday. Before the smoke cleared and the suspect was arrested, the interweb was filled with commenters on various websites screaming for more [regulations],[laws], [control] covering guns. Outlawing gun shows, closing shooting ranges, the usual liberal dhimmi screaming points.
Before Dear Leader has a chance to stand on the back of SO Chris Kyle and use his death as an excuse to push gun confiscation, we need to step back, consider who and what was involved, and realize these men sacrificed a great deal in service to our Nation and not a single one of them would want this incident to be used to justify disarming Americans.
DHS Raids Gun Collector - Confiscates Nearly 1,500 Guns - No Charges Filed : Freedom Outpost
and so it begins.
There will be more confiscations, more "search warrant affadavits", meaning they don't have enough to convince a judge to issue a real search warrant, so they rely on so-called "sworn statements from a confidential informant" who must remain unnamed to protect other investigations.
Pair this with the Combat Arms Survey and rumours that Dear Leader is applying a litmus test to the command level regarding firing on American citizens and you have a serious problem developing in this country which has only one very deadly but completely logical outcome:
American citizens will resist gun confiscation and the federals will put armed agents on the street to seize weapons by force. Resisters will most assuredly be shot.
Once that starts, its anarchy and open season.

The Honorable John A. Boehner
Office of the Speaker
H232 Capitol
Washington, D.C. 20515
January 19, 2013
Dear Speaker Boehner;
I received my natural Republican card in the mail this afternoon.
Sir, you are asking for my support, along with asking for a donation of 25, 40, or 50 dollars for the Republican “cause.” My immediate question to you is this: can you please give me any reason(s) at all as to why I should support the national Republican Party any longer? For the last four years now during your political game of chess with the opposition party in the House you have been out-maneuvered and out-witted every step of the way. You have also been held in either check, or, in fact, checkmated by the House members on the Democratic side of the house. Time and time again Obama and the rest of his administration have out-smarted you, out-played you, and beat you at every turn. You have not been able to stop Obama and his party’s reckless spending one iota, not to even mention the upcoming obvious total destruction of our country due to the Obama administration’s disregard for tenets of the Constitution of the United States of America.
By being complicit in picking Romney, hand-in-hand with those other Republicans that obviously also thought he was the best choice for the job to put up as our candidate to run against Obama in last year’s presidential election, you, sir, helped select a very weak individual to represent not only our party, but also the American people, in general. And then, to top it off, by Governor Romney then picking Ryan as his vice-presidential running mate, we wound up with now two weak candidates. And now, today, because the blue blood establishment Republican Party has shot itself in the foot once again (the first time was RINO McCain, of course, four years ago) we are facing another “four years of the same”. It is becoming redundant now.
By not attacking Obama on the legitimacy of his birth certificate with regard to his father, a loyal British subject, and his (Obama’s) right to set foot in the oval office in the first place, you missed a great opportunity of nipping it in the bud up-front, when it would have been the most appropriate time for you to take some kind of action on the issue.
And just lately, by not fiercely demanding answers with regard to the attack on our consulate in Libya, with Obama’s decision to not defend our consulate there, you dropped the ball once again. We needed answers then – and we need answers now. We need to know the answers to the questions that only his Secretary of State can answer, yet you sat on your thumbs and let Hillary Clinton get away with her obvious, wide-open dereliction of duty, just the same as you have done with Obama. Their inaction in this matter led to the murder of our ambassador, and yet, as of today, there has still been no formal charges filed against either Obama or Clinton, nor any other State Department officials. This leads we, the people, to believe, essentially; that somehow no one is responsible for the act of war that took place against our country while the people in charge were watching it unfold in real time on their satellite linked TV sets in the war room, intently watching the murders take place. I wonder if they were offered popcorn and cokes in the war room while they watched. President Obama was, in this case, as probably in all others, except maybe vacations is/was working as an absentee president in the matter at hand – as he was not called to task on it by you or anyone else of any real authority. It is almost as though there is a conspiracy taking place in the lofty realm of the big government you have all helped create for yourselves.
When will you personally, and the Republican Party, in general, even begin to realize that in order to beat the Democrats at their own game, the one they beat you with all of the time, that you are going to have to play rough politics and get down on the same level that they operate from. You are going to have to get down in the dirt and sling mud exactly the same way they do. All of you need take the damn gloves off and come out swinging! Make an attempt at winning for us once in a while. Do it for the Republican Party, and do it for the country. Try. Make the attempt. Please.
During these last four years the American people have been held hostage by Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, as well as many of the other members of the Democratic Party, and this is a known fact that the whole country is well aware of. Everyone in the country, I suppose, except for the leaders of the Republican Party.
Mr. Speaker, surely you know, just as well as the rest of us, that Obama did not win the White House with an honest and open vote. The vote was a total fraud, top to bottom. He was elected by the votes that were coming out of the grave yards in the cities of Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, Cincinnati and San Francisco, among a few others, and also with the help of our 50 states many crooked, mob-led, mob-enforced unions, hand-in-hand with the help of thousands upon thousands of undocumented aliens all over the country. Sir, it does not take a mental giant to figure all of this stuff out. What it does take is some words and some action on our Republican Party’s leadership to get the various balls rolling to make everything right once again in our country. Is it any wonder at all for you people on Capitol Hill that you are all ranked so lowly in the eyes of the citizenry of this country? Surely you have wondered once or twice about it. Where was the outcry out of the Republican Party while all this was going on? Where were all of the challenges that should have been taking place at the polling places during the election process while all of these many violations were in the process of taking place against our country? The Fox News Channel was telling us all about the fraud that was taking place. I can only assume that the members of congress were out shopping for Christmas presents somewhere, leaving no one in charge. The answer to this question, I believe, is that our party was not only silent on the subject, but absent without leave. AWOL. In the military services of our country that would be a court-martial offense.
Once again, sir, the Republican Party was out-witted, out-maneuvered and totally out-classed by the Democratic Party on this issue and many others, too numerous to even mention here. And now, sir, even as I speak: we are looking at yet another disaster that is in the beginning stages there on Capitol Hill. This upcoming, looming disaster has to do with Obama’s appointment of Hanoi John Kerry to the position of Secretary of State to relieve Hillary Clinton. This individual, Congressman John Kerry, should have been tried for treason and locked away in a federal prison many decades ago and, in my opinion, should still be festering away in some dark and dank cell in Leavenworth, Kansas. He should never have been allowed to serve in either one of the two houses of Congress. The act of treason against one’s country should not be rewarded by placing the person in a position of responsibility. I can think of only one other low-life person of his ilk that Obama could possibly appoint to that cabinet post that might be even close to being worse than the appointment of Kerry, and that person is Hanoi Jane Fonda. But, then again - maybe I spoke too soon. Just possibly in today’s modern Republican Party the members might most likely cheer her on, instead.
In closing Mr. Speaker, I suppose I'll have no other choice but to support your party, but only for the simple fact that we only have a two-party system in our country, providing me no other recourse. I strictly refuse to support the other one, the Progressive (read: Communist) Party. Essentially, I am taking the path of the lesser of two evils, which s exactly what I did when I cast my ballot for the office of President last November. Bottom line, sir, as of right now I do not believe that our present-day Republican Party has anybody, nor even any bright star on the parties immediate horizon that can run against literally any Democratic candidate nominated in the near future. That is how far down on the totem pole I believe our party has sank while the party leadership has been napping their lives away. I can only hope that enough people in America come to their senses sometime within the next couple of years to sift through the ashes of this last election, see and recognize the error of their ways, and hopefully come up with a newer, much brighter, much, much more aggressive party that can lead us into the future. The party has disappointed me for a number of years now. The party needs to give we the voters a broader range and choice of candidates for the office of president.
But, actually sir, I rather doubt that I will be hearing back from you. I doubt if this letter will even get past your various assistants, much less into your hands to read; as most correspondence that is sent such as this will most likely just end up in the round file, or maybe just swept out with the other trash. However at least I had my say in what I believe is a very grave matter for not only our party, but for our whole country.
Respectively yours and Semper Fidelis,

West Point center cites dangers of ‘far right’ in U.S.
A West Point think tank has issued a paper warning America about “far right” groups such as the “anti-federalist” movement, which supports “civil activism, individual freedoms and self-government.”
The report issued this week by the Combating Terrorism Center at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., is titled “Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America’s Violent Far-Right.”
The center — part of the institution where men and women are molded into Army officers — posted the report Tuesday. It lumps limited government activists with three movements it identifies as “a racist/white supremacy movement, an anti-federalist movement and a fundamentalist movement.”
The West Point center typically focuses reports on al Qaeda and other Islamic extremists attempting to gain power in Asia, the Middle East and Africa through violence. (emphasis added)
But its latest study turns inward and paints a broad brush of people it considers “far right.”
It says anti-federalists “espouse strong convictions regarding the federal government, believing it to be corrupt and tyrannical, with a natural tendency to intrude on individuals’ civil and constitutional rights. Finally, they support civil activism, individual freedoms, and self government. Extremists in the anti-federalist movement direct most their violence against the federal government and its proxies in law enforcement.”Read more:
The report also draws a link between the mainstream conservative movement and the violent “far right,” and describes liberals as “future oriented” and conservatives as living in the past.

The “Militia” of the 2nd Amendment | A Soldier's Perspective
We hear a lot of static from all sides of the aisle. Some claim that the Founding Fathers could have never envisioned the type of weapons we have today. Others say that the 2A only applies to the military.
So, what is the truth? What is the “militia” of the Constitution referring to? I’m not going to present a grammatical argument to this issue, though one would suffice alone in coming to a realization of what “the militia” is. Instead, I’m going to talk about what our Founding Fathers intended through their own words.
Interestingly, I’ve never heard anyone quote the ACTUAL LAW in any argument about what constitutes the militia.
(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b) The classes of the militia are—
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.
Title 10, Subtitle A, Part I, Chapter 13, § 311
If you've ever toured Monticello, then you know that Thomas Jefferson had very strong opinions about what his legacy should be. He wanted to be remembered as the man who wrote the Declaration of Independence and as the "father" of the University of Virginia. Both are inscribed on his tombstone, along with his second proudest achievement--authoring the Virginia Statute on Religious Freedom.
....what Jefferson wrote in Fredericksburg some 230 years ago was such a groundbreaking defense of freedom that the men who drafted our Constitution relied on it for the framework of the First Amendment. "No nation," the third President said years later, "has ever existed or been governed without religion. Nor can be." Thomas Jefferson understood then, as we do now, that religious freedom is fundamental to every other freedom on earth. Maybe that's why, despite all of his other accomplishments, Jefferson considered the statute one of his greatest legislative feats.

GOP congressman threatens impeachment if Obama uses executive action for gun control
“Any proposal to abuse executive power and infringe upon gun rights must be repelled with the stiffest legislative force possible,” he added. “Under no circumstances whatsoever may the government take any action that disarms any peaceable person — much less without due process through an executive declaration without a vote of Congress or a ruling of a court.”
He concluded by claiming that an executive order would be not just “not just an attack on the Constitution,” but also an “attack on Americans.”
“If the president is allowed to suspend constitutional rights on his own personal whims, our free republic has effectively ceased to exist,” he said.
Obama: Some Gun Control Measures 'I Can Accomplish Through Executive Action'
Dear Leader seems to be throwing down a gauntlet to law-abiding American citizens. I believe he's deliberately trying to piss us off to get a reaction.
He WANTS a reaction that will justify the use of his Civilian Defense Force to "quell uprisings against government employees confiscating weapons."

When They Come For Your
Guns, Do You Have A Responsibility To Fight?
I feel a tremendous responsibility to write this article though I am a little apprehensive. Thinking about the possibility of rising up against our own government is a frightening thing for many of us. I am not Johnny Rambo and I will be the first to admit that I do not want to die. The reason I feel compelled to write this, however, is simply because I don’t think the average American is equipped with the facts. I feel that a lot of American citizens feel like they have no choice but to surrender their guns if the government comes for them. I blame traditional media sources for this mass brainwash and I carry the responsibility of all small independent bloggers to tell the truth. So my focus today is to lay out your constitutional rights as an American, and let you decide what to do with those rights.
About a month ago I let the “democracy” word slip in a discussion with a fellow blogger. I know better. Americans have been conditioned to use this term. It’s not an accurate term and it never has been a correct term to describe our form of government. The truth is that the United States of America is a constitutional republic. This is similar to a democracy because our representatives are selected by democratic elections, but ultimately our representatives are required to work within the framework of our constitution. In other words, even if 90% of Americans want something that goes against our founding principles, they have no right to call for a violation of constitutional rights. If you are religious you might choose to think of it this way… Say that members of your congregation decide that mass fornication is a good thing. Do they have the right to change the teachings of your God? The truth is the truth. It doesn’t matter how many people try to stray from it.
Did I just compare our founders to God? In a way I did, but please note that I am not trying to insult anyone. For the purpose of the American Government our constitution and founders who wrote it are much like God is to believers. It is the law. It is indisputable. Our founders did not want a “democracy” for they feared a true democracy was just as dangerous as a monarchy. The founders were highly educated people who were experienced in defending themselves against tyranny. They understood that the constitution could protect the people by limiting the power of anyone to work outside of it much better than a pure system of popularity. A system of checks and balances was set up to help limit corruption of government and also the potential for an “immoral majority” developing within the American People. We have forgotten in this country that we are ultimately ruled by a constitution. Why is a democracy potentially just as dangerous as a monarchy? Let’s look at something that Benjamin Franklin said because it answers that question more fully and succinctly than I can.
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. -Benjamin Franklin
Even 230+ years ago our founders were perceptive enough to realize that democracy was a dangerous form of government. How so? Because the citizens of a country can become just as corrupt as any government. We have seen evidence of this throughout history. Ask Native Americans and African-Americans if this population can become corrupt. I think in 2012 we are seeing evidence of what Franklin was trying to tell us. Just because a majority of people may support certain ideas it does not mean that those ideas are just. In simple terms, just because most Americans love our president and voted for him, it does not mean that he has the power to go against our constitutional rights. Next I’d like to review the text of the second amendment. It is very clear. This is the law of this land. So when Senator Feinstein or President Obama talk about taking your guns, you need to think about something. Are they honoring their sworn oath to uphold the constitution?
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.
This is a pretty clear statement. The fact is that it took 232 years for the Supreme Court to even rule on this amendment because it has never been successfully challenged. In 2008 a case ofColumbia v. Heller the Supreme Court ruled that a handgun ban in Washington D.C. was unconstitutional. One also has to take this into consideration. The Supreme Court supports your right to own guns. If you want to research this decision further you can . For those who try to debate the spirit of the 2nd amendment, they are truly no different from people who will try to take Biblical quotes out of context to try to support their immoral decisions. The founders were very clear on the intent of the 2nd amendment. Let me share a few quick quotes here:
The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. -Thomas JeffersonFirearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people’s liberty teeth and keystone under independence … From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, and tendencies prove that to insure peace, security and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable . . . the very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that is good. -George WashingtonThe Constitution shall never be construed….to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. -Samuel Adams
I could find hundreds of quotes like these.This country was built on the right to bear arms. It was built on the rights of an individual to bear arms, regardless of what his government or neighbor happened to think. This is crystal clear.
Ironically the people who voice their opinions against this right have their free speech protected by your guns. Without guns in this country, all other amendments become null and void, simply because “We the People” will lose our power of enforcement. We need to keep this in mind as our “representatives” try to push gun bans. I don’t care if 99% of people are in support of gun bans (which is far from the case), it is a violation of our constitutional rights, plain and simple.
A constitutional republic protects the rights of the individual even when their ideas are very much in the minority. If I were the only person in America who believed in the 2nd amendment, I would still be within my rights to call upon it. You would all think I was insane and possibly celebrate if I was gunned down, but in the end I would be the only true American among us.
Our framers were very clear on this. If my government comes to take my guns, they are violating one of my constitutional rights that is covered by the 2nd amendment. It is not my right, at that point, but my responsibility to respond in the name of liberty.
What I am telling you is something that many are trying to soft sell, and many others have tried to avoid putting into print, but I am going to say it. The time for speaking in code is over. If they come for our guns then it is our constitutional right to put them six feet under. You have the right to kill any representative of this government who tries to tread on your liberty. I am thinking about self-defense and not talking about inciting a revolution. Re-read Jefferson’s quote. He talks about a “last resort.”
I am not trying to start a Revolt, I am talking about self-defense. If the day for Revolution comes, when no peaceful options exist, we may have to talk about that as well. None of us wants to think about that, but please understand that a majority can not take away your rights as an American citizen. Only you can choose to give up your rights. Congress could pass gun ban legislation by a 90%+ margin and it just would not matter. I think some people are very unclear on this. This is the reason we have a Supreme Court, and though I do not doubt that the Supreme Court can also become corrupt, in 2008 they got it right. They supported the constitution. It does not matter what the majority supports because America is not a democracy. A constitutional republic protects the rights of every single citizen, no matter what their “elected servants” say. A majority in America only matters when the constitution is not in play.
I just wrote what every believer in the constitution wants to say, and what every constitutional blogger needs to write. The truth of the matter is that this type of speech is viewed as dangerous and radical or subversive, and it could gain me a world of trouble that I do not want. It is also the truth.
To make myself clear I will tell you again. If they come for your guns it is your right to use those guns against them and to kill them. You are protected by our constitution. Most of the articles I am reading on the subject are trying to give you clues without just coming out and saying it.
I understand that because certain things in this country will get you on a list that you don’t want to be on. I may well be on that list. This blog is small and growing so I may not be there yet, but I have dreams. I also have my own list of subversives and anyone who attempts to deny my constitutional rights is on that list.
I am not the “subversive” here, it is the political representatives who are threatening to take away my inalienable rights. If they come to take my guns and I leave a few of them wounded or dead, and I somehow survive, I have zero doubt that I will spend a long time in prison and may face an execution. But I would much rather be a political prisoner than a slave. If I go down fighting then I was not fighting to harm these human beings. I was simply defending my liberty and yours. It is self-defense and it is what our country was built on. We won our freedom in self-defense. We would not be ruled by a tyrannical government in the 1770′s and we will not be ruled in 2012 by a tyrannical government. There is no difference. This is a case of right and wrong.
As of now the 2nd amendment stands. It has never been repealed. If Feinstein or Barack have a problem with the Constitution then they should be removed from office. They are not defending the Constitution which they have sworn an oath to protect. It is treasonous to say the least. They would likely say the same about me, but I have the Constitution, the Founders, and the Supreme Court on my side. They only have their inflated egos.
I am not writing this to incite people. I am writing this in hopes that somehow I can make a tiny difference. I have no idea how many of my neighbors have the will to defend their constitutional rights. 2%? 20%? I am afraid that 20% is a high number, unfortunately.
When push comes to shove many people may give up and submit to being ruled. I believe that our government is banking on this. What I do know is that this country was founded by people who had balls the size of Texas and Patriotic Americans take shit off of no one, especially our own government. For evidence of that, you might research the Revolutionary War. My question is how many Patriots are left?
I would hope that our officials come to realize that, regardless of our numbers, we still exist because they are calling Patriotic Americans to action. They are making us decide if we want to die free or submit to their rule. I can not tell you where you should stand on that. I do know that it may make the difference between living a life of freedom or slavery. You must start thinking about this because I believe that the day is coming soon and I personally believe it has already been planned. Not all conspiracy theories are hogwash. They may throw down the gauntlet soon and my suggestion is that you prepare yourself to react.
I mean no disrespect to our elected officials but they need to understand that “We the People” will not be disarmed. If they proceed then it is they that are provoking us and we will act accordingly. We are within our rights to do so.
For those who are in support of taking the guns, you need to ask yourself a very important question, and I am not just talking about the politicians, because if you support them, you have chosen your side.
Are you willing to die to take my guns?
Americans never give up your guns
