Compare and Contrast

The "Vote Freedom First President's" Heller brief:
Given the unquestionable threat to public safety that unrestricted private firearm possession would entail, various categories of firearm-related regulation are permitted by the Second Amendment.
The Second Amendment:
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.

  1. Given the unquestionable threat to our monopoly on power that unrestricted private firearm possession would entail, various categories of firearm- related regulations not permitted by the Second Amendment are hoggishly called for by people addicted to the govt. trough, and besides, we know better than anyone else.

  2. "Given the unquestionable threat to public safety..."


    I prefer this definition:

    unquestionable
    (adjective)
    1. incapable of being questioned; "unquestionable authority"


    Whenever the courts attempt(ed) to question an expansion of the power of the federal government, they were told to get in line or else. (See: Agricultural Adjustment Act.) So that's exactly right: No one is allowed to question that liberty is bad for public safety.

    Screw it, let's do some questioning:

    * Did New York City become safer for the public after the Sullivan Act of 1911?

    * Did New Jersey become safer after the state took over control of all firearms transactions in 1966, for "public safety" reasons?

    * Did crime disappear after the NFA of 1934 was passed?

    * Did crime disappear after the GCA of 1968 was passed?

    * Did crime disappear after the AWB of 1994 was passed? Did it reappear after it expired?

    * How many accidental deaths result from firearms misuse every year? How about from gravity?


    Here's the enhancement of "public safety" since the 1960s, when the real disarmament agenda was put into action:

  4. Ahhh, but if you read "public safety" as " the safety of public servants" it actually makes sense.

  5. Ask the Jews of Nazi Germany how safe they were.
    Ask the students at columbine,VT and the other schools how safe restrictions made them. Ask Suzanna Gratia-Hupp how safe firearms restrictions made her and her parents at Luby's cafeteria.
    Restrictions on firearms make the public less safe because it creates an imbalance of power that favors the madman, criminal and tyrant. The founding fathers knew this that is why they said shall not be infringed.
