If you're inclined to call your Congressperson, the vote is today on the
universal background check bill. Almost all gun sales are already subject to background checks; this would criminalize private sales between individuals, so that the government had a record of every single transfer. This would be used only for the good, of course, and never to build a database for confiscatory purposes.
UPDATE:
Post hoc ergo propter hoc is an informal fallacy; but the timeline is interesting.
UPDATE: Cam Edwards points out that, should this bill become law, a battered woman who
borrowed a gun to defend herself would be a criminal -- and on conviction, would lose her
right [UPDATE: See comments] legal permission to own a gun.
She would not lose her right- just her state permission slip.
ReplyDeleteInalienable means just what it says.
That is true. I stand corrected.
ReplyDeleteIt passed the House.
ReplyDeleteAnd if it were to pass the Senate, and be signed into law? Like all good Jews, we should then wear the yellow star and obey?
ReplyDeleteNothing indicates defeat like obeying your enemies.
Enforce this law and they mark themselves tyrants, who, by nature, engender no respect, and command no legitimate authority.
The State hasn't commanded any legitimate authority since humanity decided to get into a war with the gods, elohim, and the Creator... shrugs.
ReplyDeleteHumanity is literally living rent free on the non mobile space artifact and construct called Earth. Landlords charge rent correct, because they own or created the value on the land. If Earth has no Creator, then you humans don't need to pay rent or license fees. However, if the Earth was created, then there's a problem. And that's what the war is about originally.
Raven, the one thing I know humans can be counted on doing is Obeying their Authorities, Obeying their Orders, and covering it up ala Japanese biowarfare team pardons and Operation Paperclip. They didn't put that in high school history books.
