And You Will Feel No More

U.S. Attorney Brett Tolman and officials with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) said at a Friday news conference they are continuing to crack down on illegal gun sales and will have undercover agents at the Crossroads Gun Show at the South Towne Exposition Center.

This link was sent to me by correspondent ChareltonHest, who adds:

"Rise to your knees, kiss the royal emblem on my cloak, and you will feel no more." (Executioner from the movie "Braveheart")

Wroth doesn't begin to describe how I feel at the moment. Read this article. This is outrageous.

They targeted older Americans. Old independent-minded rams for refusing to adapt with the times and subject their fellow citizens to the Almighty State's discretion before transferring a firearm. Imagine that: thinking for yourself and using your own judgment to decide if the person you want to sell to is alright.

For the love of all that is good. Not only was targeting these particular people an insult to injury, they went further: "Three of those charged with federal gun law violations spoke repentantly about their actions on Friday as part of a deal."

They got these people to get up in front of the cameras and confess their "sins" against the state. "I don't think anyone wants to be responsible for [something similar to] what happened in Virginia,". Unbelievable. Forced at gun-point to kiss the boot and spout anti-heretic one-liners.

These damned laws do not prevent those with a dedicated mission(such as murder/suicide) from accessing weapons. They take the independent thought out of your head by not being able to sell a firearm at YOUR discretion, they assume guilt before innocents, they combine toward registration of firearms, and they undermine the entire purpose of the Second Amendment: Government not being able to decide who can and cannot have a gun.

If only we patriots were as dedicated to our mission as the murderous "Chos" out there. As Mike Vanderboegh would say... "We have been TOO law-abiding....the Nazis passed laws justifying every horrible act they later committed. In such a country, law-breaking is not a crime but a virtue." These laws may not prevent the psychos from getting guns, but they will prevent those of us that are "Too law-abiding" from getting them, especially when the term "terror suspect" is added to these unconstitutional background checks.

The system of rights-deprivation is cunning and sinister: As they pass more laws, those of us wanting to appear "good" obey them, leaving those with true ill-intent to disobey them. The more the true criminals disobey these laws, the less the good people want to be associated with such a characteristic. Even when breaking said law could be a noble and patriotic thing, and aid in your survival(As those of us who know our history know where gun-control leads...)
