HOUSE DEMOCRATS INTRODUCE BILL TO BAN ALL GUNS IN AMERICA EXCEPT SINGLE SHOT.
The United States Supreme Court ruled in Marbury vs Madison that laws repugnant to the Constitution are automatically null and void. The United States Supreme Court reaffirmed that principle in Norton vs Shelby County! The United States Supreme Court also ruled in United States vs Miller that the Second Amendment reserves to the people arms equal to those carried by the uniformed government forces, given that the purpose of the Second Amendment is not hunting or target shooting but arming the people against the rise of tyranny.
This bill proves that tyranny is alive and well in Sodom on the Potomac. This bill proves that Congress has gone off the Constitutional reservation they are supposed to confine themselves to, and by that act have proven that they are no longer the legal and legitimate government of this nation. As a result, the American people are under no legal or moral obligation to obey such a government, pay its bills, or sacrifice the lives of their children in the government's wars of conquest!
The government's argument for a gun ban is weak, to say the least. The US Government has been spending your tax dollars giving military weapons to Al Qaeda, ISIS, Israel, and Mexican Drug cartels, but is afraid to allow law abiding citizens to have them. The US Government insists that banning guns will disarm the criminals. History is against them on this point. The US Government demands that you rely on the police to protect you from criminals, who have whatever guns they wish to have. But the existing bans and the police have not stopped any crimes or mass shootings in progress. The only mass shootings halted at the time they were happening were the result of citizens using legally-owned firearms in defense of themselves and others.
Today in the United States, the average time for a response to a 911 call runs anywhere from 12 to 26 minutes depending on where you live. In many police departments, the 911 line now goes to a recording system! Under the civil forfeiture laws, the police steal more from US citizens than the criminals do, and the out-of-control police have murdered more innocent Americans than terrorists or mass shooters! And we are supposed to call and wait patiently for their help?
Remember the Warren v. District of Columbia lawsuit? Three women living in Georgetown were the victims of a home invasion. They called 911. The Georgetown police said they were on their way, but never arrived until the following morning, after the three women spent the entire night being raped and brutalized by their attackers (who escaped and were never found). The women sued the police for failing to protect them but lost the lawsuit when the Judge declared that there is no actual law which obligates the police to intervene in a violent crime!
Yet the US Government insists we disarm ourselves and wait for the police to show up ... if ever!
The police are never present when a crime occurs. When a crime, or act of terror, or mass shooting happens, there are only two parties present; the perpetrator and the victim. Common sense says that We The People have a right to be armed with weapons equal to if not superior to those in the hands of the criminals terrorists, or mass shooters!
The US Government's real goal is not to stop crime, as most of these weapons specified in the bill are not used to commit crimes, but to hand a military advantage to the US government in advance of a population angered to the point of rebellion by further confiscation of our wealth and our children for more wars of conquest.
The Second Amendment exists not to protect hunting and target shooting, but to give the people a means to hold oppressive government in check.
"The Constitution preserves "the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation. . . (where) the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms." -- The Federalist, No. 46 - James Madison
"[I]f circumstances should at any time oblige the government to form an army of any magnitude, that army can never be formidable to the liberties of the people while there is a large body of citizens, little if at all inferior to them in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to defend their rights and those of their fellow citizens." -- The Federalist, No. 29 - Alexander Hamilton
"[A]rms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. . . Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them." -- Thoughts On Defensive War, 1775 - Thomas Paine
"What, sir, is the use of militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty. . . Whenever Government means to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they always attempt to destroy the militia, in order to raise a standing army upon its ruins." -- Debate, U.S. House of representatives, August 17, 1789 - Elbridge Gerry
"The great object is, that every man be armed." - Patrick Henry
"That the people have a Right to mass and to bear arms; that 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..." - George Mason
"Are we at last brought to such an humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our own defense? Where is the difference between having our arms under our own possesion and under our own direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?" - Patrick Henry
"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect every one who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.... O sir, we should have fine times, indeed, if to punish tyrants, it were only sufficient to assemble the people!" - Patrick Henry
"No free government was ever founded or ever preserved its liberty, without uniting the characters of the citizen and soldier in those destined for the defense of the state.... Such are a well regulated militia, composed of the freeholders, citizen and husbandman, who take up arms to preserve their property, as individuals, and their rights as freemen." - State Gazette (Charleston), September 8, 1788
"While the people have property, arms in their hands, and only a spark of noble spirit, the most corrupt Congress must be mad to form any project of tyranny." - Rev. Nicholas Collin, Fayetteville Gazette (N.C.), October 12, 1789
"And that the said Constitution be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press, or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peacable citizens, from keeping their own arms; or to raise standing armies, unless necessary for the defense of the United States, or of some one or more of them; or to prevent teh people from petitioning, in a peacable and orderly manner, the federal legislature, for a redress of grievances; or to subject the people to unreasonable searches and seizures of their persons, papers or possesions." - Samuel Adams, Debates of the Massachusetts Convention of 1788
"A militia when properly formed are in fact the people themselves . . . and include all men capable of bearing arms. . . To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms... The mind that aims at a select militia, must be influenced by a truly anti-republican principle." -- "... whereas, to preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them..." - Richard H. Lee, Additional Letters from the Federal Farmer 53, 1788
"... of the liberty of conscience in matters of religious faith, of speech and of the press; of the trail by jury of the vicinage in civil and criminal cases; of the benefit of the writ of habeas corpus; of the right to keep and bear arms.... If these rights are well defined, and secured against encroachment, it is impossible that government should ever degenerate into tyranny." - James Monroe
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." (Thomas Jefferson Papers p. 334, 1950)
