Whoever Wins…the Constitution Loses

Hillary Clinton, along with violating the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Federal Records ht 1Keeping Act…along with her treason related to Benghazi and lies told to cover her ample, pant-suited ass…is also a vile and vicious anti-constitution freak show regarding our 2nd Amendment.

Before I get to her specific comments, allow me to ask anyone with a working brain cell…and the liberals without such…to tell us all just how effective the liberal gun control measures are working out for them.

Gun free zones? Really? The majority of mass shootings in this country take place in liberal induced gun free zones yet every time some liberal crackpot opens fire in a school or college, liberal numb-nuts rush to the nearest microphone or to their social media to demand more gun restrictions.

And gun restrictions and gun registrations…

Posted on by

Last Wednesday, we witnessed a rare moment.

The fact that it was a rare moment is, in and of itself, disgusting for it SHOULD be the most common of moments as to go without notice.

To those who provided those responses, thank you for answering questions not asked.

The senator from Kentucky did not ask whether or not this had been done before.

The senator from Kentucky did not ask if there was any intent to do it in the future.

The senator from Kentucky simply wanted to know if the president believes he has the AUTHORITY to do it.

There are only two options when it comes to the answer.

Did Killing Awlaki Cross a Constitutional Line?

Posted on by

In light of the killing of Awlaki in Yemen yesterday, an American citizen, there are some who are pointing to the Constitution’s 5th Amendment and crying foul. Certainly this must be considered and to do so, we must first look AT that amendment.

“No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived  of life, liberty, or property, without due  process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”
