Some of the Democratic Presidential
candidates are talking about gun confiscation.
This is crazy. It would lead to a
civil war in this country. Many people
will fight to the death before giving up their guns, and they should.
The
Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America
A well regulated militia being necessary to the
security of a free state INFR INGED.
There
is no mention of hunting or self-defense.
The primary reason is protection from both foreign and domestic
governments, and this should remain a concern.
The
reference to a militia in the Second Amendment was not limited to a government
military. It referred to citizens that
could and would defend their country.
A
well armed populous is a protection from foreign invasion. Isoroku Yamamoto was Commander-In-Chief of
the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II:
He was aware of the civilian militia.
He said;
You cannot invade the mainland United States
The
threat from a domestic government was of even more concern for our founding
fathers. The intention of the Second
Amendment is quite clear. George
Washington wrote:
A free people ought not only be
armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to
maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them
which would include their own government.
“Their
own government” is an important part of his statement. What happens after the government takes away
guns? Here is a little history: Look at what has happened in other countries
when guns have been confiscated.

1911

1929
in Soviet Union : 40 million
killed by government

in Rwanda
Some
people think this could never happen in our country because it can only happen
where political leaders and bureaucrats have a political agenda, feel they are
above the law, are accountable to no one, and are corrupt.
Obviously,
it could happen here. We now know how
government intelligence and law enforcement agency’s were used to try to unseat
a sitting President. This should scare
everyone.
Congress
is looking at banning certain guns like the assault rifle. Most of these politicians can’t even define
an assault rifle except it is a scary looking military type. I didn’t see any exceptions in the Second
Amendment for guns that looked scary, and it clearly protects the right to own
military type weapons.
The
mass shootings that have taken place are being used to justify gun confiscation. Guns are only a tool. If politicians are serious about stopping
mass shootings they need to deal with the real problems like mental health
professionals, schools, and law enforcement sharing and reporting dangerous
individuals. Every mass shooting could
have been prevented if this had been done.
Background
checks are also good, but existing laws have to be enforced. 80,000 felons attempted to buy guns and were
denied, but only 44 prosecuted. How many
did buy a gun?
Remember,
every time you hear a politician talk about more gun control and gun
confiscation or buyback, it has nothing to do with stopping school
shootings. It is about total government
control. And, that is called socialism
or communism.
God bless President
Trump and guide him to make America
“Trump did not bring division. Division brought Trump.
If you don’t see that, then you’re
part of the problem.”
