2nd Amendment INFRINGED in Federal Court

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/ am 1

“We hold that the Second Amendment does not preserve or protect a right of a member of the general public to carry concealed firearms in public.”

Those were the words of Judge William Fletcher, representing the majority opinion of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday in San Francisco. Words that will surely, and rightfully cause a firestorm of dissension from gun owners across the nation.

With regard to the ruling, and without regard to the 2nd Amendment, the court said that law enforcement can require applicants to show they are in immediate danger or have another good reason for a permit.

Of all the insane, abjectly unconstitutional and pig-headed things…

Law enforcement can REQUIRE anyone who applies for a carry conceal permit to SHOW that they are in…IMMEDIATE…danger or have another good reason…for a permit.

Well allow me to point out the bone-crushingly obvious…

am 2If one is in IMMEDIATE danger…by the time they get the permit filled out…IT WILL BE TOO DAMN LATE. But how’s this for ANOTHER good reason…

Tyranny is no longer just around the corner…it is right here, staring us all squarely in the face.

Our 2nd Amendment states quite clearly that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”

In full, our 2nd Amendment reads…” 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.”

It does NOT read…

A well regulated (by the government including restrictions and bans imparted by officials who want you to fear them more than they fear you) Militia, being necessary (depending on one’s definition of “necessary”)  to the security of a (tyrannical) free State, the right of the am 3people(to be determined by the left of the political aisle and their particular nanny-state whims) to (ask for permission to)keep and bear Arms, (but only after they find themselves in some sort of yet to be determined dander by a panel of unelected bureaucrats who don’t know their own collective asses from a hole in the ground) shall not be infringed. (and by “shall not be infringed…what we really mean is shall most definitely be infringed.)

Can you see the difference?

Let me make that so damn clear that even a liberal can understand it…

According to the 2nd Amendment...WE THE PEOPLE…HAVE EVERY DAMNED RIGHT ON EARTH…TO OWN…AND TO CARRY…A WEAPON. Further…THAT RIGHT…AS ENDOWED BY OUR CREATOR AND NOT BY GOVERNMENT…SHALL NOT BE MESSED WITH.

am 4Our Founders and Framers were unclear regarding some aspects of our Constitution…things many of which were cleared up by the Bill of Rights and our 2nd Amendment leaves no wiggle room, no grey area and no question in the minds of any with a working brain cell that We the People, of these United States,  are not…in any way, shape or form…bound by any law to wait until we are in some sort of immediate danger before we can apply for and/or receive a permit…a piece of paper generated in some bureaucratic office by some cluster of bureaucratic, myopic and herniated weasels rather than by our Creator.

And regardless of what this court of fools says…”to keep,” means to own and “bear” means to carry.

How about a scenario to put this turd stupid ruling into perspective?

Let’s just say that you are walking down the street, minding your own damn business…something liberals just can’t seem to wrap their heads around because they want to mind everybody else’s damn business…and suddenly, out of nowhere, there is some punk…some drugged up thug coming toward you with a gun in his hand and he’s pointing it directly at you.

am 5That thug is screaming at you…”GIVE ME YOUR MONEY OR I’M GONNA KILL YOU!!!”

Breaking the scenario for a moment…are you in immediate danger at that point?

Back to the scenario…

The drugged out thug is shaking like paint mixer in an earthquake and his first shot, from 25 feet away, is so close you can feel it as it passes your head.

Breaking the scenario once again…how about now? Are you in immediate danger now?

Yes?

You’re sure? Your life is, at that point, in immediate danger?

Okay then…according to this absolutely insane ruling, from a gaggle of asshats on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals…you are, at that point, free to seek out the nearest law enforcement operation and ask for their permission to obtain a conceal carry permit.

Bear in mind that it will take 2 to 3 weeks for the Washington weasels to PROCESS your request, and also bear in mind that you are most definitely in IMMEDIATE DANGER…and if you are lucky…after the customary waiting period…which is, coincidentally, a SUITABLE PERIOD OF MOURNING for your FAMILY and LOVED ONES…by the graciousness of the almighty weasels, anam 6d by the power usurped by liberals…you will be GRANTED said permission.

Think this is a crazy scenario? Think again as yesterday’s decision by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals OVERTURNED a decision by a lower court, which had itself, nullified an order regarding a case where a sheriff, in California, had REQUIRED applicants for conceal carry permits to show SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS, such as RESTRAINING ORDERS…AGAINST THEIR ATTACKERS…before being allowed to apply for the permits.

Oh yes, on the surface, this decision regarding our 2nd Amendment seems insane but I submit to you that it goes much, MUCH deeper than surface stupidity.am 7

This bit of tyranny goes straight to the heart of liberalism.

You see, liberalism, is a political ideology that leads to socialism and eventually all the way to communism, could not exist without one very necessary component.

Victims.

To liberals, victims need government to protect them. Victims need to take the hand of, and be led by…their government. Victims must RELY on their government for every little thing. Victims need government insurance. Victims need government subsidies. Victims need to have the entire world around them placed into the always caring, always nurturing government and the victims themselves, must become the wards of the government lest they continue to be victimized.

And where government can’t find victims…they are more than happy to either create new victims or convince the gullible that they are, though they may not reaam 8lize it, indeed victims.

To be more specific to this particular court ruling…these judges simply do not believe that any one individual should have the ability to protect oneself. And why should they, when the GOVERNMENT is there to protect them.

And how does this ruling protect anyone? You think it DOESN’T?

It protects those who will, at no cost to them, create more victims FOR the government to protect.

Think about it for a moment…

Notice that in this court ruling, there is absolutely no provision by which those with murder, madness, rape and mayhem on their minds…that element of society to which laws mean absolutely nothing…are required to seek permission from anyone or anything including the government, before creating another victim.

The thugs, rapists, thieves and murderers can kill you straight away without asking for permission but you, as a law abiding citizen of these United States , cannot…I repeat CANNOT…protect YOURSELF from them…WITHOUT GOVERNMENT PERMISSION and in order to get that permission, you must wait until you can PROVE you need a weapon, at which point it will be too late to do any damn thing about it and if you survive, you are the victim needing the government to care for you and if you don’t survive, your family becomes the victims to be held and protected by the same government that protected you…to death.

am 9And what of those thugs, thieves, murders and rapists?

According to liberal ideology…they too are victims…of circumstance beyond their control. That is why, to liberals, no one is accountable for their own actions. It’s always somebody else’s fault.

Now…after 240 years, and out of 350 million Americans…Hillary and Trump are the 2 best that could be found? You have got to be kidding me.

Hillary…a socialist felon, guilty I believe of treason, espionage and quite possibly an accessory to murder regarding our diplomats in Benghazi, will nominate to the Supreme Court, judges that will, absolutely will, uphold this absurd 9th Circuit Court decision. Of that, there can be no doubt.

And Trump?

He’s a life-long liberal who, just a few years ago, is on record as hating the idea of guns and advocating some of the same liberal gun controls implemented by Bill Clinton that Hillary is, to this day, clearly in favor of.

Oh, I know he now says he’s rock solid on the 2nd Amendment, but he can’t be trusted. After all, he says one thing at 2pm and another at 4pm the same day, reversing himself on policy issues. He claims to be the one TO do something, and then says it was only a suggestion. Trump came out with a list of potential SCOTUS nominees…but do we trust him, or were those just mere suggestions?

To be clear regarding Trump, and honest…he doesn’t even know what judges do.

As of right now, the Supreme Court is a 4×4 stalemate and the stalemate goes to the lower court ruling which means, should this specific knot-headed and unconstitutional decision make it to the Supreme Court in its current form…the ruling against the 2nd Amendment will be upheld.

This most absurd of situations, the most absurd yet most important election of our lifetimes, can and must be altered.am 10

Hillary Clinton must, MUST be indicted and kept from the ballots in November and as for our side…the GOP must…MUST prevent the imbecile, Donald Trump, whose only fathomable attachment to our party being the “R” behind his name from being our nominee and replace him with a true, Constitutional Conservative who will, without a doubt, nominate to the Supreme Court ONLY the most QUALIFIED, most CONSERVATIVE and the most CONSTITUTIONAL judges.

The time for messing about with a felon and a reality show con man is over. There is far, FAR too much at stake and our Constitutional rights hang in the balance.

Oh, I can hear the yowling of Trumpers everywhere telling us all that our CHANCES of getting Conservatives on the SCOTUS are better with Trump than with Hillary and to a point, they are correct, but all it is, with Trump, is a chance.

Donald Trump has frankly and honestly done a piss-poor job of vetting his campaign staff am 12and he has a history of not taking any, not to mention sound advice, from anyone. If Trump is allowed to nominate Supreme Court Justices…at best it is nothing better than a shot in the dark by a man inebriated with narcissism.

And yes, I know that his followers don’t care about such things as proper vetting but let me tell them this…if they give one ounce of a whip about their rights, and specifically about the 2nd Amendment, which allows for our self-protection from thugs, thieves, murders and rapists whether they be on the street or seated in Washington…they had damn well better start caring.

am 11At this most crucial point in our history, I call on the NRA to immediately withdraw their endorsement of Donald Trump, who proper vetting shows to be clearly against our 2nd Amendment (remember, you cannot properly vet a candidate based on promises he MIGHT keep in the future…only by their words and deeds of the past) and immediately throw their support behind the ROCK SOLID, CONSTITUTIONAL CONSERVATIVE whose Supreme Court nominees are GUARANTEED to stand FOR our 2nd Amendment…Ted Cruz.

We can no longer afford to play games or take wild chances with a candidate who is so prone to narcissistic  knee-jerk reactions and who has been a life-long liberal. We can no longer afford to hope for change and try an unknown, unreliable commodity whose public stances on nearly every issue, and especially on our 2nd Amendment, have been decidedly liberal. And we most certainly cannot afford to place our 2nd Amendment into the am 13hands of one who, despite the “R” behind his name, has admitted that he identifies with the democrats.

The simple fact is this…if Donald Trump is allowed to become the Republican nominee…not only will we lose this election, but we also lose our rights and most importantly, our right to keep and bear arms.

There will come a time when making a point against the GOP and those who have, for too long, misrepresented our party’s core values and principles. There will come a time when teaching them a lesson by casting votes out of spite will not cause immediate and lasting harm to our nation.

Now is not that time.

Now is the time for true, proven, steady-handed and Constitutional leadership.

If you are at all concerned about, or in the least bit respectful of our 2nd Amendment, it is time to put an end to the following of a liberal to teach the party a lesson, an end to the vitriol, an end to the vile and vulgar nonsense and demand a Constitutional candidate…Ted Cruz…and stand tall to protect the Amendment that protects us all.

Simply put…those who still follow Trump…are willing to play a very, VERY dangerous game with our rights and obviously don’t give a happy damn about our 2nd Aam 14mendment because the only true, proven and fully, properly vetted champion OF the 2nd Amendment with a chance to win in November IS Ted Cruz.

Those who have chosen to blindly follow Trump, for whatever reason, now have a choice to make…they can either cling to their candidate…or cling to their 2nd Amendment rights. They cannot have both and should they choose the former…they are willfully turning their backs on the latter.

It’s just that simple.
