I, Sec. 10. Start making the Right to Bear Arms to protect One's State meaningful, and start bringing in those breaking laws, especially the Laws of the Land.<BR/><BR/>Those who are here illegally are *invading* the States. One does not need carry Arms to invade or do damage, it is the act of breaking the Sovereign Right of the Nation and the State to have noninterference with Autonomy that is at risk. And then BILL THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT in the form of the President and Congress and ask: You have made the Laws and do not enforce them and put the Union at risk and this State shall have an ANSWER from you.<BR/><BR/>Citizens with their States can change this very, very quickly and Citizens on their own in States that allow Open Carry can start *today*. The peaceful bearing of Arms openly is an Ancient Right of People to demonstrate that anyone trying to take their freedom from them shall have a fight on their hands.<BR/><BR/>Concealed carry is for an effete society that is dying as it can no longer openly have citizens willing to show they will protect themselves. Good and honest establishments that are trusted will have a 'check your weapons at the door' or have secondary peacebonding by the establishment. That is low to no overhead, at all.<BR/><BR/>We dare NOT depend on the Government of the United States to defend us at this point in time. It must be held accountable by the means we have agreed to. Revolution only comes after a General Constitutional Convention has *failed*. And before that the States have the obligation and the RIGHT to hold the Federal system to account for itself or say that the Federal is breaking with the Constitution. Then you get the General Convention.<BR/><BR/>As I have stated before, all the trendlines for Iraq are going in the right direction and have been for over two years now. The ones in the US have been declining for over three decades and look to be hitting a bad place soon. It can be averted but only if we USE our RIGHTS to some GOOD. And no longer fear offending someone, because that is inane for a society of free people - the right to give offense and be offended are paramount.<BR/><BR/>As is being held accountable by the person you offend.<BR/><BR/>Not by the government, but directly, right there.<BR/><BR/>Or are we so far gone as a Nation that we cannot stand up for ourselves?<BR/><BR/>Civil War is the most likely result of this trend and, for those on the Left who refuse to arm themselves, they will find themselves on the pointy end of things.<BR/><BR/>I need to 'get out of Dodge' while the getting is good. DC and environs will not be a nice place to be in a year or two. That is what my survival instinct is telling me and I do trust it. It has saved me before and hope I have enough body left to survive it again.A Jacksonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07607888697879327120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20372724.post-3594347981325543132007-05-03T10:57:00.000-04:002007-05-03T10:57:00.000-04:00More and more, and I hate to even pitch this onto ...More and more, and I hate to even pitch this onto the table, I am beginning to think that either serious internal revolution by armed citizens or another terrorist-influenced mass casualty event will awaken America.<BR/><BR/>BZBloviating Zeppelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01359816456769157176noreply@blogger.com
