Blessed Are the Peacemakers

The Good Lord sent Sam Colt, after which none of us should ever have to fear our communities being threatened in this wise.  Except for the government of the state of New York, and California, and soon Virginia, which seek to undo the blessings laid upon us.

Well, we don't have to do what we are told, do we? After all, who are they to strive against the one who sent Col. Colt?

Note that the Scripture says "peacemakers," not "peace lovers." And the peace in this context means accord, not lack of war.

...whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.... ... [W]hen a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Now, where have I run across that before...?

It is time, I think, in at least several of the states; perhaps the time approaches in general.

He sent John Moses Browning also, in case six rounds were not enough....

Back when Doc Russia was still blogging, he invented a fictitious group called "The Holy Equestrian Order of St. John Moses Browning."

In one of my novellas, a character refers to St. John Moses Browning and St. Samuel of Colt.
