Theory verses practice is precisely the disconnect I was trying to highlight. Put another way, anyone who does not respect the Constitution essentially holds a trump card over your rights. All they have to do is cause a confrontation. (Of course they will use some other stooge as a surrogate.)

It’s pretty sad that citizens might have to resort to hiding, deception, lying, and viewing law enforcement as adversaries in order to retain and exercise a fundamental Constitutional right.

And what part of “If you kill a cop you are f***ed” is hard for you to understand?

These people don’t care, they are “the ones in power” in their minds. They cannot grasp the idea of THEM being the ones hunted, imprisoned, and outlawed. And such a situation is not going to be easy to create, since it will almost certain involve some kind of open insurrection.

Time to start hiding guns, folks. Especially if you’ve let them be aware of the fact that you have them.

Do they realize that they are putting their people at a completely unnecessary risk and into a dangerous situation by ordering them to violate the Constitution?

Or will they attempt it again?

To what point can a citizen legally resist such an illegal seizure? Doesn’t the Bill of Rights make that that an oxymoron?

The second amendment is all that really stands between us and becoming an omelet.

Most people may find this view extreme. But it is historically correct. Working forward from the year 1000 ad, kings lost power when they were forced to rely on their nobles to fight wars. And both the kings and nobles lost power when they were forced to rely on low born peasants to fight the wars. And once the peasants were armed and trained to fight together, they took political power from the kings and nobles and created democracy.

Today, too many Americans avoid military service and our democracy is losing its backbone. Today we seem to look to our government to provide us with the most basic necessities – just as 1000 years ago our distant ancestors begged food, shelter, health care, and safety from their Lords.

Freedom can be an awful burden because it requires self-reliance. Sadly, too many people would beg for food, shelter, healthcare and safety from Obama (and kneel before him, placing their heads in his hand and call him Lord) rather than realize that they can give these things to themselves.

Unfortunately, McCain also wants to be a Lord. Neither candidate reminds us that the state did not create us, we created the state. Neither candidate reminds us that we did not create our current catastrophe, the state created it with high taxes, stupid laws and disastrous regulations. The solution to our problem is not more laws, more rules and more people telling us what to do. The solution is to get the government off our backs so that we can repair our civilization before it crumbles into ruins.

I just hope the government has enough money to bailout New Orleans when the class action suit ends. I hope every gun owner in New Orleans sues the city, state and anyone else they can.

I wonder how many gun owners were robbed, raped,assaulted or murdered, in LA, while the state left them defenseless????
