RIGHT OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO BEAR ARMS

CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO BEAR ARMS

It is not primarily for their collecting; nor primarily for their hunting; nor even primarily for their self-defense against violent criminals; it is primarily for well regulated militias in every state; ready, when faced with intolerable governmental tyranny, for explosive bloody revolt to preserve their Liberty.

Just as every sensible American child should grow up knowing exactly how to safely use the automobile for transportation; so too every sensible American child should grow up knowing exactly how to safely use the gun for revolution.

Every well informed American knows that the Right to Bear Arms is a sacred integral part of the American system of Constitutional government, by the People and for the People, in which their executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government are subordinate to the supreme democratic majority will of the People.

Every sensible American governmental official has a very healthy fear of this inherent revolutionary power of the American People.

Every American governmental official knows that any action subversive to the Constitutional Rights of the American People is an act of tyranny.

Obama

Obama is not a democrat but a socialist and his health coverage plan is not to give better care but to ration health services and cut costs,In England if you are over 55 and you need dialysis you do not that is what will happen in this country so the democrats can reduce the social security burdenand medicare costs.There will be to levels of health care one for the rich and one for those who are not. Think about it why do canadians come to the US to have health care and why do many English citizens come to live in the US

D. C. gun case.

The decision by the Court was the CORRECT one.

Our country's Founders mistrusted government and RIGHTFULLY concluded that the BEST check against DESPOTISM is to give the people the power to ARM themselves!
