The 2nd Amendment

guns

"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." Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Note: No, The Second Amendment Has Nothing To Do With National Guard ("Militia" meant "People")

The Evolution of American Freedom chart above shows that the American Revolutionaries used the same guns or the equivalent [ Brown Bess (.75 Caliber), Kentucky Flintlock (.50 caliber), loaned French Charleville Musket (.69 caliber), etc.] that the British military used when fighting against them. The Brown Bess (.75 caliber/19.1 mm) was the most widley used rifle by the American Revolutionaries (citizens/militia) and the standard rifle for the British (Red Coats)--it was the equivalent to our fully-automatic M4 or M-16 Rifle. (See FirePower and Faith & The Christian and War (9 Part Audio Lecture Series by Dr. Robert A. Morey) -- Dr. Bob Morey shows pacifism is not taught in the Bible and that the right to self-defense is Biblical and every Christian should support the 2nd Amendment -- Dr. Bob Morey was a "NRA" member.)

Our Founding Fathers used Military Rifles to Fight Against the British

Yes, our founding fathers wanted us (citizens/militia) to be able to defend ourselves against the government if it ever went tyrannical or against an invading foreign army. This is why the 2nd Amendment was put in the Bill of Rights and this included fully-automatic military rifles, which are currently outlawed. Shot guns and pistols are useless in fighting an invading army, terrorists, drug cartels or a tyrannical government. (It is not about hunting!) Therefore, semi-automatic rifles are an absolute necessity. Registration of guns always leads to confiscation--do not register rifles. Fully-automatic rifles were legal in America until they were banned by the National Firearms Act of 1934.

Good News: Victory! Federal Judge Overturns California's Unconstitutional "Assault Weapons" Ban (10/19/2023) -- Judge Benitez declared semiautomatic rifles are used by millions of Americans in other states and that California was abridging its citizens' Second Amendment rights with the illegal regulation. That's right, Golden State citizens can now legally defend themselves by using AR-15s equipped with high-capacity magazines. Most of all the States in the U.S. allow semiautomatic rifles and more than 10 rounds--it is not a problem.

Historical Note about the Founding Fathers, who were inspired by the Swiss and the Bible

America's founding fathers were very inspired by the Swiss and the Bible regarding the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment--this was the land of William Tell, Ulrich Zwingli, William Farel and John Calvin, who hated tyranny. Nazi Germany was afraid to invade Switzerland. While the Gestapo were disarming citizens in Europe, the Swiss government were ensuring that every home was equipped with weapons and ammunition--see Switzerland's Strategy for Survival & To Keep or Not to Keep: Why Christians Should Not Give Up Their Guns (DVD).

Big Pharma & The Mainstream Media -- Promoters of illegal "Gun-free" Zones and the Globalist Agenda (Oath Keepers) --excerpt from article,

In Marbury v. Madison, the Supreme Court held that “It cannot be presumed, that ANY clause in the constitution is intended to be without effect.”(1)...

And in Norton v. Shelby County, the Supreme Court further held that “An unconstitutional act is not a law; it imposes no duties; it is, in legal contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed”.(2)...

The right to “keep and bear arms” is present in the Constitution in four separate places therefore — per Marbury v. Madison — it has legal import in four separate places. Any “law” or “regulation” that is made by the Federal or state governments, executive order or court precedent which is inconsistent with the right to “keep and bear arms” would — per Norton v. Shelby County — “impose no duties” and would be “in legal contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed.”...

This is the law whether people like it or not. It is also high law, because it comes directly from the U.S. Constitution, the supreme law of the Land. Thus, the legislators and other government officials that have passed gun-control legislation have violated the law. These public officials will therefore have to eventually be charged, impeached or reprimanded for violating their oaths of office.

What the Bible Teaches on Self-Defense

Audio: " When Is It Right To Fight" by Dr. Robert A. Morey on" RemnantXRadio (5 part series)--Refuting the "Pacifists" with Worley And Bowling. The book entitled "In His Steps" is an unbiblical book that feminized Christianity (John Piper took an anti-2nd Amendment stand--stupidity). Also, see the three articles below by Dr. Bob.

Font Cover: When Is It Right To Fight?

Click to listen to "The Christian and War" (9 Part Audio Lecture Series by Dr. Bob) and also watch his video interview in 2018. (Dr. Bob has been debriefed by Naval Intelligence and the FBI on his vast knowledge of terrorism.)

The book entitled "In His Steps" by Charles Monroe Sheldon in 1896 took an unbiblical position on defending yourself that also contributed to a feminized Protestant Christianity in America. This is why the Irish Catholics filled the police departments because the Protestant men became brainwashed by this teaching--it is not Christian to be a policeman, military soldier or have a gun at home to defend your family! Let your wife be raped--what a husband! All Christians should have rifles (semi-automatic) and handguns at home and should obtain a "concealed carry license". See Right to Carry and Police/Sportsmen tab on this website. Also, see Self-Defense and ownership of Guns by Dr.

Note: There was a recent article published by The Washington Post entitled John Piper: Why I disagree with Jerry Falwell Jr. (12/23/15) that twists Scriptural passages out of context and violates every Hermeneutical principle. Unfortunately, John Piper is post-evangelical and has embraced liberal doctrines--he is an idiot. John Piper's position/doctrine left the Holocaust of the Jews and now wants Christians to walk into the ovens for their Holocaust by not defending themselves. Also, read another misguided and ignorant so-called Evangelical, Rob Schenck (Evangelical Church Alliance), who is against gun ownership and does not understand that self-defense is taught in the Bible. We can now understand why the Christians in America are so dumbed-down.

A Biblical Portrait of the Righteousness And Requirements Of Bearing Arms-- Kyle Mantyle from a far left blog (Right Wing Watch) said the following about Pastor Chuck Baldwin's position on Firearms when he spoke with Sheila Zilinsky's podcast:

...Citing a passage from 1 Timothy, Baldwin asserted that every adult has "a duty to provide for your family, but you cannot provide protection for your family without being equipped to do so."

"Therefore, you must have the means of self-defense," Baldwin said. "And in our society today, that means a firearm in the similitude of an AR-15. Without that, you are not in a position, you are not even able to protect not just your family and your house, but your neighbors, your community around you; that we, as a community of people—that's the militia—are given the God-given responsibility to protect our communities. That is a biblical requirement."

Baldwin called on pastors to preach sermons telling their congregations that "if you are not prepared to defend your family and your neighborhood and your community with the force of arms, you have denied the Christian faith and you are worse than a heathen."

Warning about Mental Health Screening in Schools and Psychology

The Effects of Prohibitions Associated with Mental Illness (11/14/2023 by the Rand Corporation) -- Epidemiological evidence suggests that a diagnosis of mental illness alone has little relation to risk of interpersonal violence (Swanson et al., 2015); in particular, studies estimate that between 2 percent and 4 percent of all violent behavior may be attributable to mental illness (Corrigan and Watson, 2005; Swanson, 1994). One study found that among a sample of convicted murderers in Indiana, perpetrators with serious mental illness were significantly less likely to have used a firearm compared with other perpetrators (Matejkowski et al., 2014).

Former President Obama's Mental Health Screening in Schools Will 'Disarm' Gun Rights: "Databases To Follow Academic Career and Beyond (11/11/2014; the article was published by Infowars). Students will be screened not for their own benefit, but to further the aims of total gun control. See FAQ#20 about how Psychology is a religion and Psychological testing should not be mandatory. Did you know that occult and New Age authors boldly brag that the human founding fathers of Psychotherapy and Psychology received their understandings from “familiar spirits”? This is also a violation of the Constitution.

Oath Keepers To Hold March Through #Ferguson With 50 Armed Black Protesters (08/16/15)

The Missouri chapter of the Oath Keepers are planning to hold an open carry march through downtown Ferguson, Mo. with fifty (50) armed local African-American protestors with AR-15 rifles. It is unfortunate that the false liberal & so-called false conservative whites & blacks (this what was done in the South during segregation) want to deny law-abiding African- Americans from protecting themselves with firearms. St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar, who is scared and a coward, to stand up for the State law that prohibits law enforcement to confiscate any firearms during a State of Emergency, warned a number of Oath Keepers this past week that open carrying long barrel rifles would be a violation of the law even though it is legal according to an Infowars article.

President Thomas Jefferson Sheriff Badges

Thomas Jefferson, 3rd President of United States (03/04/1801 -- 03/04/1809)--image by Rembrant Peale (1800)

President Thomas Jefferson state in his work entitled "The Values of the Constitution" called the Sheriff's Office "the most important of all executive offices of the country. The Sheriff's power and authority are from the people who elect him. The citzens should control the office of Sheriff."

(It should be noted that President Thomas Jefferson included bold anti-slavery language in the original Declaration of Independence, which was removed. He did get passed by Congress in 1807 a bill outlawing the importation of slaves--it took effect in 1808.)

The Sheriff can be traced back not only to the Magna Carta (1215), but to the Book of Daniel 3:2 when King Nebuchadnezzar II (634--562 BC) was reigning. The Sheriff was brought over to North America around 1634 and President Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809) called the office of the Sheriff "the most important of all executive offices of the country." [See Sheriff David Gee of the Florida Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office established in 1845 (HCSO has over 4,000 employees that conists of 2,022 Deputy Sheriffs and Corrections and 1,375 civilians) for further details. It should be noted that Mr. Joseph M. Demarest, Jr., former Assistant Director in charge of the FBI's New York Division, was employed as a Deputy Sheriff for the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. Also, see Sheriff & Magna Carta & Sheriff Tract 2017-- PDF to hand out to your local and state officials.]

First African-American Sheriff Elected in 1869 in Texas

Because you can elect the Sheriff, there was more opportunity for diversity. A case in point is Burton Walter Moses (1829 - 1913), who was the first African-American Sheriff elected in 1869 in the State of Texas in Fort Bend County. Also, he was a Texas State Senator and a member of the Republican Party.

Facts: United States has more firearms per capita (90 per 100 residents) than any other country--however, the United States ranks number 111 out of 218 nations in the number of murders per 100,000 residents. If you removed the gun murder data for the 12 cities in the United States (the highest murder rates and all are Democrat Party-controlled cities with highly restrictive gun laws), the United States would drop to number 211 out of 218 countries according to Bill Whittle. Yes, United States has very little gun crime when the the 12 cities are removed. Detroit has a rate of 54.6 murders per 100,000 residents.

Shaneen Allen, an African-American Woman, screwed by New Jersey for having a legally obtained "Concealed Carry License" from PA

A single African-American woman (Shaneen Allen) living in Philadelphia and working two jobs that had been a victim of previous robberies lawfully obtained a "concealed carry permit" in PA. Unfortunately, when she was stopped for a minor traffic violation in New Jersey, she told the Officer that she had a concealed carry firearm in her car--the idiot cop arrested her instead of just informing her that New Jersey does not offer reciprocity to PA residents. Rep. Martin Stuztman has introduced "concealed carry reciprocity" legislation to KKK policies from the Southagainst African-Americans like they did years ago. Note: The recent United States Supreme Court ruling on June of 2022 opened the door for non-residents and NJ residents to apply for a concealed-carry permit--one does not need to show "justifiable" need.

Governor Chris Christie (NJ) pardons Shaneen Allen (April 12,2015), an African-American women who lives in Pennsylvania and is a Philadelphia nurse and single mom of two children, who made the mistake of bringing her "licensed handgun" into New Jersey (she had a "concealed carry permit" from PA)--06/04/15 --The ignorant Atlantic County Prosecutor needs a remedial class on the Constitution and Bill of Rights that includes the 2nd Amendment. Atlantic County Prosecutor Jim McClain (who should be removed from office by Governor Christie) wanted to imprison Ms. Allen for 10 years. This is why we should have elected prosecutors like PA and have the Sheriff's Office (who is the real chief law enforcement officer and a real constitutional office that is elected) take over more of the law enforcement activities. We want to compliment Governor Christie for doing the right thing in the eyes of God.

Moses and the second Amendment before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed

Image credit: Moses and the 2nd Amendment Stone. By David Dees. Deesillustion.com

The term "militia" was always understood to be every individual citizen rather than just an army. George Mason (principal author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, who had a profound influence on the construction of the federal "Bill of Rights", especially the 4th Amendment) described the Militia as "the whole people", that is, every American citizen (the Militia is the citizens). When the United States Congress passed the "Militia Act of 1792", it defined "militia" of the United States as every adult male, not as the Continental Army. The act required each adult to possess a firearm and a minimum supply of ammunition and military equipment--this was the law and enforced into the twentieth century. Section 10 United States Code (USC) 311 reads: "The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17... [and] under 45 years of age who are or have made a declaration to become a citizen of the United States." Additionally, another provision allows for a "reserve militia" (as opposed to the "ready militia" described above), that includes women, children and the elderly. This act was incorporated and used by many States in their constitutions--the State National Guard units were always separate from the militia provision. Can Congress require its able-bodied male citizens to enroll in their State Militia and train?

Yes, under Article I, Sec. 8, clause 16, the Congress may lawfully require citizens to buy guns and ammunition. (See Second Amendment Committee for articles on the Militia and Peaceful Resolutions to get your Gun rights back and Chuck Woorley on Gun Control: 5 Reasons Why We Cannot Ban Firearms in America.)

Also, the Constitution gives the U.S. President the authority to call the Militia into "federal service" even if a state does not have an organized Militia. By the way, Presser v. Illinois decision by the Supreme Court made it quite clear that if a state had no organized Militia it could not disarm the citizens because they constituted the unorganized (reserve) Militia that exists de facto without governmental benefit.

Quotes below from our Founding Fathers & other influential people in our country

"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 Henry Lee, January 25, 1788, Letters from the Federal Farmer to the Republican 18.

"The militia is composed of free citizens. Samuel Adams, signer of the Declaration of Independence and father of the American Revolution.

"Who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people." George Mason, delegate to the Constitutional Convention and father of the Bill of Rights.

"A free people ought...to be armed..." George Washington. A speech given on January 7, 1790 and published in the Boston Independent Chronicle (January 14, 1790).

President Thomas Jefferson (3rd President from 03/04/1801 - 03/04/1809): “The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes….Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man. Thomas Jefferson’s “Commonplace Book,” 1774-1776, quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria in Chapter 40 of “ On Crimes and Punishment”, 1764.

Famous Persons who either Believed in the 2nd Amendment or Knew that Firearms in the Hands of Citizens prevented Tyranny (Dictators hate an armed Citizenry)

Image credit: President John F. Kennedy, photograph in the Oval Office. 11 July 1963. By Cecil Stoughton, White House. "Public Domain"

President John F. Kennedy (35th President of the United States: 01/20/61 - 11/22/63). President Kennedy might have been assassinated by his own government on 11/22/63 [JFK Assassination And Coverup: New Evidence and Testimony Emerges (hear the audio of Robert F. Kennedy speaking to President Lyndon B. Johnson, "Why did you have my brother killed?).]

President John F. Kennedy: “By calling attention to ‘a well regulated militia,’ ‘the security of the nation,’ and the right of each citizen ‘to keep and bear arms,’ our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy… The Second Amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic civilian-military relationships in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason I believe the Second Amendment will always be important.” John F. Kennedy, Junior Senator of MA in a 1959 letter to E.B. Mann [From the 1974 Gun Digest, article titled Gun Laws]

President John F. Kennedy (05/29/1917 - 11/22/1963): “Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, citizens who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom.”

Israeli Police Inspector General Shlomo Aharonisky: “There’s no question that weapons in the hands of the public have prevented acts of terror or stopped them.”

Facebook suspended the Natural News account on Dec. 28, 2012 after it posted an historical quote from Mohandas Gandhi. The quote reads:

“Among the many misdeeds of British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. ” – Mohandas Gandhi, an Autobiography, page 446.

The Whole quote from Gandhi: “Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. If we want the Arms Act to be repealed, if we want to learn the use of arms, here is a golden opportunity. If the middle classes render voluntary help to Government in the hour of its trial, distrust will disappear, and the ban on possessing arms will be withdrawn.” Mohandas K. Gandhi, Autobiography: The Story of My Experiments with Truth, Chapter XXVII, Recruiting Campaign, Page 403, Dover paperback edition, 1983.

Professor Akhil Reed Amar: “The ultimate right to keep and bear arms belongs to the ‘the people,’ not the ‘states.’ As the language of the Tenth Amendment shows, these two of course are not identical and when the Constitution means ‘states, ’ it says so. Thus… ‘the people’ at the core of the Second Amendment are the same ‘the people’ at the heart of the Preamble and the First Amendment, namely Citizens…Nowadays, it is quite common to speak loosely of the National Guard as ‘the state militia,’ but…in 1789 , when used without any qualifying adjective, ‘the militia’ referred to all Citizens capable of bearing arms. The militia is identical to ‘the people’ in the core sense described above.”

Alan Dershowitz: “Foolish liberals who are trying to read the Second Amendment out of the Constitution by claiming it’s not an individual right or that it’s too much of a public safety hazard, don’t see the danger in the big picture. They’re courting disaster by encouraging others to use the same means to eliminate portions of the Constitution they don’t like.”

Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto (04/04/1884 - 04/18/1943; Japanese Marshal Admiral and Commander-in-Chief of the combined fleet in World War II): “You cannot invade mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind each blade of grass.” Advising Japan’s military leaders of the futility of an invasion of the mainland United States because of the widespread availability of guns. It has been theorized that this was a major contributing factor in Japan’s decision not to land on North America early in the war when they had vastly superior military strength. This delay gave our industrial infrastructure time to gear up for the conflict and was decisive in our later victory.

Adolf Hitler (04/20/1889 - 04/30/1945): “The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing. Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let’ s not have any native militia or native police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order throughout the occupied Russian territories, and a system of military strong-points must be evolved to cover the entire occupied country.” Adolf Hitler, dinner talk on April 11, 1942, quoted in Hitler’s Table Talk 1941-44: His Private Conversations, Second Edition (1973), Pg. 425-426. Translated by Norman Cameron and R. H. Stevens. (See Worldview Tab for further information on what Hitler's true Worldview or belief system consisted of.)

Hitler and Gun Control

Eyewitness to Hitler Warns: "Keep your Guns and Buy More Guns"

When Katie Worthman, who is 84, (see her powerful video presentation above) was a little girl in Austria, she witnessed firsthand Adolph Hitler’s rise to power and the Soviet communist occupation that followed and how people were forced to register their guns in the name of safety and then they were confiscated.

Mao Tse Tung (12/26/1893 - 09/09/1976): “All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party.” (Problems of War and Strategy, Nov 6 1938, published in “ Selected Works of Mao Zedong,” 1965) Mao's policies and actions lead to the death of 77 million of his countrymen.

Note: More people are killed by their own governments than crime or wars.

See just a few countries below that have slaughtered millions in the past century (list taken from Infowars Vol. 1 issue 6, Feb. 2013, page 50):

1. Mao's China [PRC]: 1949 - 1987, 76,702,000 people killed,

2. U.S.S.R.: 1917 - 1987, 61,911,000 people killed,

3. Western Colonialism: Combined, 50,000,000 people killed,

4. Nazi Germany: 1933 - 1945, 20,946,000 people killed,

5. Japan: 1936 - 1945, 5,964,000 people killed,

6. Pol Pot's Camboida: 1975 - 1979, 2,035,000 people killed (Pol Pot was funded by the U.S. Government) .

Lenin, Stalin, Hitler and Mao all banned private gun ownership.

Firearms vs. Doctors/Drugs

Should hunters, sportsmen and peace officers belong to pro 2nd Amendment organizations?

See Death --PDF & FirePower and Faith

If you are a hunter, sportsmen, peace officer, etc. and do not belong to a pro 2nd Amendment organization such as the Gun Owners of America (GAO), Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO), National Rifle Association (NRA), etc., you do not deserve to own a gun. The 2nd Amendment is not about sporting and hunting rights--it is about protecting oneself against a tyrannical government, self-defense or an invading army/enemy. The English tyrants had understood an armed citizenry was one of the only guarantee of liberty, which had many laws banning the owning of arms by its peasants--the Redcoats tried to seize the Rebel arms in Colonial America. Of course, if the people reject the true God of the Bible they will loose their freedoms. In other words, to paraphrase Dr. Gordon H. Clark, only Biblical Christian presuppositions justify civil governments of limited rights, whereas humanistic principles imply either anarchy or totalitarianism--since governments are divine institutions and get their authority from God, it follows that totalitarian governments are without authority beyond the limits set by God.

Christians, Jews, Ukrainians, Armenians & many other groups were required to register their guns by corrupt governments and then they were confiscated and then Democide--this has ocurred over and over again in governments around the World, especially in the 20th century

Nazi Gun Control Laws

NJIAT was good friends with a Polish Jew in NJ, who passed away and was a "holocaust" survival, and he understood the purpose of the 2nd Amendment and how important it is to stop tyranny. When Nazi Germany (November 11, 1938--one day after Kristallnacht) enacted "Regulations against Jews' possession of weapons," it made every Jew register their firearms and then the SS Reichsfuhrer would do a search-and-seizure for any firearms in Jewish homes--it was known as he Reichskristallnacht [Night of the Broken Glass--the prefix Reichs (imperial) was typical of the Nazis adding sardonic titles] that occured in 1938. The policies were promulgated in every country conquered by Hitler--Polish Jews were ordered by the Wehrmach in 1941 to turn in their guns or get the death penalty. (The Warsaw Ghetto uprising against the Nazis was hampered by the fact that imprisoned Jews did not have an adequate amount of firearms.) The highly acclaimed motion picture Schindler's List left out the part when Oskar Schindler obtained guns for his workers at the Brinnlitz factory toward the end of the war.

(The liberal Weimar Republic of Germany in 1928 passed the first comprehensive gun control law and then in 1933 when the Nazis seized power, they confiscated all firearms from their political opponents. On March 18, 1938, Adolf Htitler enacted the Nazi Weapons Law of 1938 that made every citizen register their firearms and put ammunition purchases under the control of government bureaucrats. November 8, 1938 of that same year, Hitler used the registration list to disarm all the Jews. It was very easy because they had their addresses and names. Two nights later, Kristallnacht occured. Nazis burned and destroyed Jewish shops and temples. They then led thousands of unarmed German Jews away to death camps. Unfortunately, many of U.S. citizens guns are registered in some way.)

Stalin also murdered between 10 to 20 million peasants--he wanted to exterminate the Ukrainians. The Soviet Union, with its anti-Christian Marxist agenda, used gun registration lists to confiscate weapons in the regions of Georgia, Ukraine, and Lithuania--the Soviet Union, between 1917 and 1953, murdered 36 million peasants and Christians. Christians were not allowed to own firearms in Turkey and this led to the massacre of 1.5 million Christian Armenians in the Ottoman Turkey Empire during 1915-1917. Muslim nations usually will not allow other religious groups in their countries to be armed. In Sudan today the Islamic north imposes firearm control on the south, where the majority of Christians live--the Christians are fighting against the imposition of Islamic (Sharia) law. Over 500,000 Christian Tutsi minority groups were murdered by the Hutu Animist/Humanist government of Rwanda on April 6, 1994--this occurred after enforcing vigorous gun control! Gun licensing and other restrictions, for example, were used to suppress blacks before and after the Civil War.

Czech Republic Amends Constitution to Protect Right to Keep and Bear Arms (2021) -- The new Czech constitutional amendment seeks to push back against the EU's encroachment. It overrides a Czech law implementing the EU directive that the country passed after unsuccessfully challenging the directive at the European Court of Justice. History: The Czech lands have a history of firearm ownership, stretching back to the Hussite Wars where the proto-Protestant Hussites largely
depended on firearms to defend themselves from the encroaching Catholic forces. Even today, the Czech Republic has relatively lenient firearm laws, with a quarter of a million people holding concealed-carry permits. Furthermore, Zeman, the Czech president, is a vocal advocate for firearm ownership.

New York City made everyone register their semi-automatic rifles and then confiscated them (don't register your rifles)-- tell the Nazis to stick it up their "Ass". Tell the Connecticut Nazi politicians to go to hell too.

NYPD Patch

State licensing laws have been a vehicle for banning firearms for well over a century. For example, New York City made any owner of "assault firearms" to register his/her firearm. During the Dinkins administration, all New York City registered so-called assault firearm owners received threatening letters to turn in their legally purchased "assault firearm". Also, see article entitled Proof: Gun Registration Leads To Confiscation--look at the letter that the NYPD are sending to registered gun owners because of the SAFE ACT (11/27/13) & 'Give "em Your Bullets First!': Texas Activists Show Solidarity With Connecticut Gun Owers (03/03/14)

Historical note: The "Brown Bess" (.75 Caliber), considered on of the most effective muskets, was used by the Continental Army, American Revolutionaries (local militias/citizens) and British (Red Coats)--it had a bayonet and was the equivalent to our M-16. The military M-16 is fully automatic--the guns sold to civilians are not fully automatic.

Retired Major in the New Jersey State Police says that New Jersey Politicians Lie about the Gun Issue and then order them to Lie to the public

This is why the so-called "assault weapons," which are not fully automatic (the rapid-fire assault weapons were banned by the National Firearms Act of 1934), should be allowed in every State and is a 2nd Amendment right--they are semi-automatic firearms (with military cosmetics) and account for less than one-half of 1 percent of violent crime! Many law-enforcement personnel know that the positions taken by their superiors against firearms in general or the so-called "assault weapons" are the result of political pressure and are outright lies. A case in point is a friend of mine--who retired as a "Major" in the New Jersey State Police--told me/alleged that the Colonel/Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police had to take an anti-gun position because the Governor at that time (1980's) told him to take that position. Also, many high ranking New Jersey State Police Officers are afraid to speak up about the gun issue (support the 2nd Amendment that includes the Right-to-Carry and support citizens having semi-automatic weapons) because of retribution even though they know what is being told to the public is a lie.

Switzerland and Guns

Note: Switzerland, which has a higher rate of firearms possession than the United States, was the only European country that the Germans were afraid to invade in both world wars. They knew every man was armed. The Swiss male citizens are supplied free of charge by the government a fully automatic rifle! (The Swiss have conscription or civil protection--mandatory military service were they can start being prepared at age 16.) In addition, every Swiss male citizen is required to keep his rifle and ammunition at home, to participate in group training, and to enter shooting matches. The Swiss have maintained their freedom for seven hundred (700) years and they had a profound influence on America's Founding Fathers regarding the Second Amendment. This was the land of William Tell, Ulrich Zwingli, William Farel and John Calvin, who had a deep mistrust of central governments. The State has delegated and limited authority by God in Scripture (Romans 13:1-7). Under the authority of the Bible, tyrannical power is to be resisted. The Law of God establishes the basic right to self-defense (Exodus 22:2).
