"Repeal The Second Amendment"

[THREEDFLYER]

I have made this point before, but it needs repeating:

The Second Amendment is the only civil right that people have sought to restrict or deny. All other civil rights have been expanded and the very same people who want to curtail our second amendment rights are the ones screaming, marching and rioting for expanding the others.

I know some will say that other rights have restrictions. All rights have restrictions, none are unfettered; however, how many marches have you seen to limit the freedom of the press. How many to deny rights to the accused, how many marches to restrict segments of the population from voting?

The second amendment is a right, a right inherent in being a citizen of the US, it was/is not given or granted by the government. People can't seem to understand that the Bill of Rights grants no rights. It simply and succinctly RECOGNIZES rights that already exist. There is no grant in them, there IS enumerated restrictions on government where these rights are concerned.

If we sit on our duffs and let the antis restrict our rights they surely will. People sit around and say that it can't happen. They are deluded. If you don't believe that it can happen please ask the six million plus victims of the Nazis. Oh, that's right.

Well said! All of us who believe in and support the 2nd Amendment need to take notice.....this threat is REAL and we need to organize ourselves. The attacks will only increase as these ignorant young people who are being coached by the Left will certainly increase their efforts.

And God forbid.....when the next shooting happens it will just keep adding to their momentum.

I somehow think the antis are still short on the 30 states required to repeal 2A despite the misguided efforts of a bunch of ill-informed high schoolers and their progressive brain washers.

I remember the 90's when Hillary tried to get government healthcare and she was laughed out of town.

Now we have Obamacare.

Underestimating the enemy is never a good battle plan.

The Second Amendment is the only civil right that people have sought to restrict or deny.

These days the 1st Amendment is hated every bit as much and attacked every bit as hysterically.

Ben Shapiro has a good video on Youtube where he addresses this issue, as well as poking holes in the arguments of others who want to see this happen. I'd post the link if I knew how.

 

[BLACKHAWKNJ]

It's a public admission by an anti-and an advocate of a "Living" Constitution, i.e. a blank slate, that the 2nd means what it says.
Constitutional Amendment ?-how about one providing that SC justices and Federal judges serve "at pleasure"-or are subject to popular recall.

The Govt imposes truth in advertisement on about every product
that is sold. Everything has contents listed on the label. A lot of
this is over kill and adds cost to the item. The exception to this
seems to be where it's made. A lot of times country of origin is
in fine print and hard to find.
I think it would benifit the public to demand truth in political
speech. I'm not talking about things like campaign promises, I'm
talking about a canidates true agenda. If a person is a Marxist
they should have to state it. If a politician is a progressive they
should have to annouce it. These people hide in the 2 major
parties and get elected mostly by party lines. Before you know
it the Party is taken over by people that are not in line with the
original agenda. The people are still voting for the party name
because their Grandfather did. If grandpa was still around he
wouldn't know his party.

US V. Cruikishank

The right there specified is that of "bearing arms for a lawful purpose." This is not a right granted by the Constitution. Neither is it in any manner dependent upon that instrument for its existence.The second amendment declares that it shall not be infringed, but this, as has been seen, means no more than that it shall not be infringed by Congress. This is one of the amendments that has no other effect than to restrict the powers of the national government, leaving the people to look for their protection against any violation by their fellow citizens of the rights it recognizes, to what is called, in The City of New York v. Miln, 11 Pet. 139, the "powers which relate to merely municipal legislation, or what was, perhaps, more properly called internal police," "not surrendered or restrained" by the Constitution of the United States.

Go ahead, repeal the Second Amendment.It changes nothing

I assume you are speaking about speech? Nobody is attacking the out of control "press." What this country needs is common sense media control.

I agree. When the Founders came up with The First Amendment and the concept of "free speech"...they were talking about protecting the INDIVIDUAL ie. Joe Citizen's right to speak in public. I do not think the Founding Fathers anticipated at time when billionaires like Bloomberg and Bezos could afford their own media corporations... spewing out propaganda 24/7 through multiple formats....to forward their own political agendas. I love freedom and I love my country, but TBH I wouldn't have a problem with the government clamping down on CNN, MSNBC and others. What they are doing now amounts to sabotage, maybe even Sedition.

Try to say something on a college campus or in a tech company that contradicts accepted dogma in ANY way and see what happens. Be a teacher and call into question the Hitler Jugend style mobilization of children against the Second Amendment.

They're not even PRETENDING to believe in freedom of BELIEF anymore, never mind freedom of speech.

Hypothetically, how many would comply with a total ban and turn in of your firearms? How many current LEO's would go knocking on doors demanding confiscation. Would you?

I truly believe this is precipitated on the realization of those in power and holding the purse strings that the current scheme of takers eventually outnumbering makers will someday crash resulting in a breakdown of society. Selling votes for handouts will someday come to an end. So much easier to control those that aren't armed. "They" are trying to vilify gun owners and the NRA as bloodthirsty Neanderthals to further their goal and sway public opinion. Unfortunately a lot of sheep follow along.

I wonder why the 3rd Amendment never gets any love??????

 

[cmort666]

None of your examples relate to a law made by Congress.

Perhaps you've never heard of the 14th Amendment?

When is it permissible for a STATE run institution (like the University of Missouri, Columbia) to either suppress protected speech or to collude in its suppression?

The logistics make mass confiscation impossible. A land mass of 3.8 million square miles with over 300 million people...and they'd go around and knock on every single door? Neither the police nor the military have the numbers to conduct an operation like that.

Even a 1% rate of active resistance would make the Revolutionary War in the Carolinas and "Bleeding Kansas" look like a child's tea party.

Maybe the barracks today are more comfortable than when I was in the service. Chow hall has to be better! Now that is a strange amendment.

I see in the news that a former plagiarizer is saying we are pimping the 2nd Amendment.

They would similar tactics that the IRS has used for years. Target a few celebrities and make examples of them to terrorize the rest of us into compliance.

I don't know about celebrities first, but the approach they will be through intimidation. Look what they just did in my moonbat state: Life sentence in prison for possessing a bump stock or anything similar. After a few lives are ruined and families are torn apart, the weak among us will start to comply. In other words, it won't be door-to-door confiscation at first. Give them credit: It will be forced compliance through extreme intimidation and picking off those who dare violate with massive force, long prison terms and much media fanfare.

When it gets to that point, watch the movies "Michael Collins" and "Defiance" to see what comes next.
