The Second Amendment Doesn’t Shrink Beneath The Threat Of F-15s And Nuclear Weapons


“The Second Amendment, from the day it was passed, limited the type of people who could own a gun and what type of weapon you could own,” Biden said. “You couldn’t buy a cannon. [Those who] say the blood of the, the blood of patriots, you know, and all this stuff about how we’re going to have to move against the government.”

[clip]

The answer is that, like those who took up arms in the face of the world’s greatest military might and fought — win or lose — for American independence, the right to self-defense in the face of tyranny makes no qualms about the risks that accompany such action.

Those who stood up to tyranny under the rule of the British crown did not do so because victory was guaranteed. Indeed, victory was extraordinarily unlikely, with numerous pivotal events providing a razor-thin path to the final objective.

Like those patriots, those who advocate for our right to stand up against tyranny do so with a valid disregard for the consequences of standing up against immorality. We believe that the Second Amendment is a written expression of our inalienable right to self-defense — of life, property, and liberty. This inalienable right doesn’t fade into insignificance under the shadow of those looking to take our lives, property or liberty just because they have a bigger stick than us.

For people like Joe Biden, the calculus of “equality of outcome” is applied to all, including our fundamental God-given rights.

That is why they will never understand those who fought and died to enshrine our right to keep and bear arms. That is why they will never understand us.

Based on a conversation I had today with an insurance salesman about my insurance needs, President Houseplant* would NOT be approved for a long term care insurance policy because he would not pass the cognitive test.

There is no hypocrisy in Our Gov. :sarcasm: Barry is still Prez, Biden is still VP, and Kamala was thrown in the mix for “laughs”. Pun intended. Not funny. The take over of the USA by the socialist/Marxist/communists has been in the making for 60+ years. FDR is applauding from his grave. He is the reason Prez was limited to two terms. It seems he won, anyway. It is hard to believe that he and Teddy were related. Lock and load during Barry’s third term. I am sure you already have. :patriot:

PS…How is your farming going after the flooding?

Media Ignore Biden’s Threat to Nuke Americans. Let’s Compare That to Donald Trump












Last June 2, President Trump tweeted: “D.C. had no problems last night. Many arrests. Great job done by all. Overwhelming force. Domination.”

ABC News said that President Trump salivated at the brute use of force against “[d]emonstrators who had been peacefully exercising their First Amendment rights in protesting the death of George Floyd.” CNN’s Chris Cillizza wrote that “Donald Trump’s twisted definition of toughness” proved the president was not an “emotionally mature person.” Reuters contrasted Trump’s comments about “protesters” with former President George W. Bush’s view that protesters should be allowed to tell Americans how to make this country “a better place.”

The legacy media so exaggerated the reality that foreign media used it as a propaganda tactic against the United States. The Turkish media outlet TRT World claimed, “Trump threatens military force against protesters nationwide.” China’s Xinhua News Agency reported, “U.S. protests against police brutality met with excessive police force.” And Russia’s Sputnik News asked, “Will Americans unite against this repression?”


Only this month did a report from the inspector general of the Department of the Interior clear Donald Trump of stampeding peaceful protesters out of Lafayette Park so that he could stage a photo op in front of a church holding a Bible. A federal judge later dismissed numerous legal claims based on this allegation.

Even that received more media coverage than Biden’s menacing WMD comments which — in a country that, in the words of liberal George Packer, is in the process of “unwinding” — seem altogether too newsworthy.

Biden at least tipped his hand when he did the creepy whispers "pay them more money".

Really Joe? Your leftie friends say it's because of COVID - they're afraid to return. It's because the jobs are crappy - and they don't want them.

And we've maintained like anyone with an ounce of sense would say - it's obvious it's because they make MORE MONEY SITTING ON THEIR ASSES.
I know - I PERSONALLY KNOW PEOPLE DOING THIS.

"Pay them more money" is indefatigable PROOF of this - they aren't returning because YOU pay them MORE.
Not crappy jobs - they're the same jobs they left.
Not fear of COVID - it's clear that Washington is doing the happy dance that it's over.

What they are also doing is crafting a story that - well dear God, they need better writers. It would make a BAD TV plot.

Oh and - no you don't need nukes and F-15s.

Apparently a handful of Russian hackers can do it. And a few people in a lab in Wuhan.

The Washington Post‘s Glenn Kessler fact-checked this statement, giving Biden a whopping Four Pinocchios.

“Everything in that statement is wrong,” David Kopel, the research director and Second Amendment project director at the Independence Institute, told The Washington Post. After 1791, when the Second Amendment came into effect as part of the Bill of Rights, “there were no federal laws about the type of gun you could own, and no states limited the kind of gun you could own.” Not until the early 1800s were there any efforts to pass restrictions on carrying concealed weapons, he said.

Even the text of the Second Amendment disproves Biden’s claim. “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,” the amendment states. No part of the amendment’s brief text suggests any limits on civilians’ cannon ownership.

Kermit Roosevelt, a constitutional law professor at the University of Pennsylvania, strained to give Biden some credit.

“I think what he’s saying here is that the Second Amendment was never understood to guarantee everyone the right to own all types of weapons, which I believe is true,” Roosevelt told the Post. “As phrased, it sounds like the Second Amendment itself limited ownership, which is not true.”
