Blueprint To Restore The Republic

March 25, 2013 by 5 Comments

constitution Blueprint To Restore the Republic

Citizens need to work towards placing into office a majority of conservative libertarian committed citizens that will implement repeal of the 16th Amendment to the Constitution from an out of control federal government to end their tyranny. This amendment created the Income Tax. This would place the entire question of our runaway federal government into the hands of the several States where this issue belongs in the first place. This is possibly the only way we can rein in the ruinous spending and onerous taxes of an out of control federal government spending the nation into bankruptcy from recalcitrant policies of continual tax, borrow and spend.

We can take solace in the unity the States have shown to the Firearms Freedom Act, which has pointed the way to the start of a full-blown federal tax revolt to bring the matter forward in a civilized and dignified Constitutional manner. This would become the catalyst for sincere debate about the future of our nation based on our founding principles grounded upon the foundation of our Constitution, a win-win proposition. With the added bonus that the President has no say whatsoever in the matter, it is beyond his Constitutional purview with the right of amendment being granted solely to the States which originally ceded a portion of their sovereignty to create the federal government. They are the parties that define what the Constitution is, and more importantly what it is not…will they exercise their power to define the federal government once again in our hour of need?

After all we are a confederation and compact of sovereign States that have formed a union having the federal governments taxing power brought into focus and placed as a constitutional amendment once again before the “People’ would short-circuit the power of the federal government and immediately bring them to heel.

As much as it frightens me to say this, in the alternative a Constitutional Convention could be convened that would implement this repeal. We are only two states away from this solution as 32 States had called for a convention along similar grounds in 2008, so this plan has merit and the time may be ripe for implementation.

Congress cannot spend what Congress does not have, they must also implement a balanced budget requirement as well, another requirement must be to eliminate borrowing and destruction of the Federal Reserve as a central bank to return this nation to a Gold based currency to restore solvency. These steps must be taken if we are to return to fiscal responsibility and break the hold of identity politics that have gripped this nation since the 1930′s, first with Roosevelt and radically expanded during the Johnson administration with the creation of the Welfare State and the entitlement mentality.

The latest monumental legislative overreach Obama Care was foisted upon the nation from a Democrat controlled Congress without one Republican vote. It was affirmed by the Supreme Court, which literally did back flips to approve this legislative nightmare, forcing all citizens to engage in commerce of the Democrats choosing. This legislation screams from the rooftops that our system is unduly broken and in need of repair if we are to keep our Constitutional Republic.

On the other hand, if we continue to go down the rabbit hole of Socialism we will never be seen as a “Free and Able People” again, and what is literally at stake if we do not turn away from this course.

With the repeal of the 16th amendment, our entire federal bureaucracy is hobbled and Washington’s overreach is immediately eliminated and governmental power would revert to the States and the People. It would also have the added benefit of breaking the disgraceful hold of the Left and the Democrats propensity to create divisive electorate groups based on anger, envy, sex, income, race, creed, religion, national origin, sexual orientation and eliminate the class warfare that they set against the nation and its unsuspecting people.

Ultimately, it would destroy their ability to re-distribute the nations treasure and our citizen’s personal incomes, wages and labors as they see fit regardless of the destructive consequences they create and has become evident by the moribund economy and loss of economic opportunity.

After all our current troubles are because of the Democrats efforts to create the current entitlement culture and economy, much less expand it, even after its toxic effects have become evident. The elimination of the 16th Amendment would simply obliterate the Left and there destructive politics based on other people’s incomes and there abhorrent identity politics on which the Democrats continually pander.

The Democrats and their leftist supporters would be forced to show the ugly face behind the mask and reveal how subversive they really are to the American people. As they would object to the proposed Amendment and their power base of unions, so-called poor, minorities, government workers, teachers etc., would come out in full-force in massive protests. It would literally pull the rug out from under them and lead to the current destruction of their dynasty for all eternity.

I say good riddance…

Another amendment that must be repealed along with the 16th is the 17th Amendment to replace the balance of power between the Federal Government and States interests as the Constitution originally intended!

If you want Peace you must prepare for War…Obama’s government is preparing for war against its own people.

Can we ignore the warnings…or will we just fail to act?

Stunning Revelations From Eric Holder

March 15, 2013 by 13 Comments

Eric Holder 13 SC Stunning revelations from Eric Holder

John Cruz, a former HSBC (global Swiss Bank) Senior Vice President for Relationship Management has charged Obama’s Department of Justice under Eric Holder as handing them a virtual “slap on the wrist” for being a criminal enterprise. HSBC agreed to pay a fine of $1.92 billion dollars for money laundering profits from Mexican and Columbian drug cartels, which is the least offensive crime they commit on an ongoing basis, to end the matter and DOJ involvement.

A Senate hearing on this matter was held last week in what has become standard operating procedure (SOP) for the Obama administration on the corruption of the “Rule of Law.”

In effect, Mr. Holder believes that some “banks” are too big to prosecute for illegal and criminal activity, as it will cause irreparable harm to the national and world economy. It makes no difference that this action gives tacit approval to the financing of global terrorism or drug cartel efforts to spread their poison onto our streets (and allows the American people to pay a heavy price for this lawlessness in increased criminal activity.) Chicago’s horrendous murder rate comes to mind as just one consequence…culminating in over 510 homicides in Chicago last year alone, with a majority fueled by the illegal drug trade.

The following excerpts are from Eric Holder’s revealing testimony before the Judiciary Committee as relayed in an article from WND (video of John Cruz, parts 1 and 2, at the end of the article is worth watching):

“Banks the size of HSBC are “too big to jail,” as a member of the Senate panel put it.

“I am concerned that the size of some of these institutions becomes so large,” the attorney general confessed, “that it does become difficult for us to prosecute them when we are hit with indications that if you do prosecute, if you do bring a criminal charge, it will have a negative impact on the national economy, perhaps even the world economy.

“And I think that is a function of the fact that some of these institutions have become too large,” said Holder.”

Holder’s later testimony showed the callous indifference to the workings of a criminal enterprise that has engaged in money laundering, financing of terrorism, and outright fraud. A criminal enterprise that is masquerading as a legitimate bank that can affect the entire world’s economy is in desperate need of investigation and prosecution as relayed by Sen. Grassley:

Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, asked Holder to explain why federal and state authorities decided not to indict HSBC after it admitted funneling cash to Mexican drug cartels, helping rogue regimes avoid sanctions and assisting Saudi banks tied to terrorism.

The senator said, “I’m concerned that we have a mentality of too-big-to-jail in the financial sector of spreading from fraud cases to terrorist financing and money laundering cases – and I cite HSBC.”

Holder replied: “The concern that you have raised is one that I, frankly, share.”

However, Holder said he was not specifically referring to HSBC, because it would not be “appropriate.”

“Again, I’m not talking about HSBC,” he said. “This is just a – a more general comment. I think it has an inhibiting influence – impact on our ability to bring resolutions that I think would be more appropriate. And I think that is something that we – you all need to – need to consider. So the concern that you raised is actually one that I share.”

Obama and Mr. Holder have a specific duty in Article II, Sec. III of the Constitution to simply “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” The prosecutorial discretion of the Obama administration makes it more of a regime than a legitimate government. These men shame their offices by the selective enforcement of laws and entities that share their collective political goals. The decision to allow a civil penalty to stand in light of the multiple criminal actions of HSBC reveals the true intent of Obama’s DOJ to allow these activities to continue unabated.

Talk about leaving the American people with plenty of law, but no justice.

Since their actions diminish the “Rule of Law” our nation was founded on, we deserve better.

Sacré Bleu; The Republic Is Irrevocably Broken

March 8, 2013 by 3 Comments

Obama Feeds America SC Sacré Bleu; the Republic is irrevocably broken

The pettiness in Washington has now reached into the environs of power and corrupted the basic workings of our Republic. With all the problems facing this nation and the added trauma of a President who is purposely inflicting harm on the American people through his sequestration debacle, we have it compounded by a Congress powerless to stop him.

We now have hit an all-time low in legislative intent for our nation. We now need a legislative act to keep our petulant president from golfing (or, to put it in a historical context, to keep Nero from fiddling while Rome burns.

The Washington Examiner tells the full story on this legislative gem from Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert:

As long as President Obama keeps the White House closed to the general public, Rep. Louie Gohmert R-Texas think he shouldn’t be relying on taxpayer dollars to transport him to the golf course.

None of the funds made available by a division of this Act may be used to transport the President to or from a golf course until public tours of the White House resume,” reads the text of the Amendment. 

The White House Visitor Center announced that all public tours would be canceled beginning Saturday March 9 due to the sequestration cuts

In this dystopian world, the American people find themselves caught in the crossfire from this President and Congress, by a government that refuses to act in the best interest of the people by deliberately spending us into bankruptcy. The irony is that the power to end this stalemate and charade lies with Congress if they would only do their duty to the People, the Union, and the Constitution…

My forecast is cloudy with a 100% chance of rain…and bankruptcy for our nation. With a looming economic collapse on the horizon, the only way to get this president’s attention is to limit his visits to the links with the help of a Congress that is currently too busy rearranging the Deck Chairs on the Titanic!

Americans are made of sterner stuff than this petty nonsense.

Feinstein’s Unconstitutional Gun Ban

January 28, 2013 by 17 Comments

Dianne Feinstein SC Feinstein’s Unconstitutional Gun Ban

“It’s for the children” Obama proclaimed after signing the twenty-three gun-grabbing executive orders after the Sandy Hook tragedy.

“Never let a crisis go to waste,” one of Obama’s cronies once quipped. And Obama hasn’t.

We can now complete the circle with this tragedy with the events that brought about the National Firearms Act known as the NFA of 1934. It came to fruition in a similar fashion in an ill-conceived legislative effort and media frenzy (so-called “public outcry”) due to the St. Valentines Day Massacre of 1929, or so the story goes.  However, it was done in slow motion and took them five years versus the speed of light Obama and his cohorts are acting out today.

It has only been two to three weeks since Obama announced his intention to ban so-called assault weapons before the legislative and executive assault began.

This latest foray into gun control is simply a national gun-registration scheme, which plays out as I first reported in a previous article.  A synopsis of S.150, on Senator Feinstein’s legislation, is as follows:

“To regulate assault weapons, to ensure that the right to keep and bear arms is not unlimited, and for other purposes.”

The synopsis is simply the title of the legislation; we now know what she and her cohorts have in mind the short title is:

‘‘Assault Weapons Ban of 2013.’’

The language is troubling: “To ensure that the right to keep and bear arms is not unlimited.” If we look closer, the key phrase is “not unlimited.” Our constitutional rights now come with apparent expiration dates pre-ban versus after, since it will codify specific limits to our Second Amendment right to bear arms. This legislation is not a constitutional amendment either. It is simply a bill to re-designate conventional arms, as equivalent to automatic weapons, with their large capacity magazines, which will now fall under the NFA registration requirements, and its $200.00 fee for each weapon and magazine registered.

This obviously infringes on our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.

The most troubling language in the bill is “and for other purposes” which is not defined at all within the pages of the bill where we find our rights are limited and they are being curtailed for other purposes, which are undefined.

When you factor in ninety-five pages of this legislation, it lists one weapon after another, which are exempt under the act. After you include the seven pages that are specifically “banned,” the 123-page bill has 102 pages of specific weapons by name, manufacturer and model number.

Why would they need to list specific weapons?

Why are they not using descriptive legal designations that discuss their functionality: i.e., falling block, lever action, pump, single shot, bolt action, tip-up, rolling block, muzzle loading, semi-automatic, automatic etc. The only reasonable guess is to list the banned/exempt firearms in this way is to tack it on as an infamous “rider bill” that are one or two sentences long on another piece of legislation that references this legislation to implement confiscation without raising much interest sometime in the future.

After all, no one reads legislation anymore, ObamaCare was proof of that.

The specific weapons named in this bill were military type weapons at one time or another or their civilian version, specifically semi-automatic weapons and other long arms. The Supreme Court in United States v. Miller categorically affirmed the right of citizens to own, use and possess military type weapons, or in the language of the government’s prosecutor, weapons for war. Nothing has changed since then, except of course “never let a crisis go to waste” to quote Rahm Emanuel, Obama’s previous Chief of Staff.

There are reasons to own and use such weapons as proven by the Battle of Athens, which occurred in Tennessee in 1946 and affirmed the citizen’s ability and right to rise up against their corrupt county government and restore the rule of law.  Tyranny is not immune to a place or time, and is ever-present wherever corruption in government exists.

So much for it cannot happen here…!

Senate Bill S.150 targets military type infantry weapons used at battlefield ranges that are used in an offensive tactical manner. The only logical conclusion to draw is our politicians wish to deny our citizens the right to raise any meaningful resistance if they decide to act against our rights and thwart our ability to respond offensively against tyranny.

The Left’s Fascination With Death…

January 12, 2013 by 9 Comments

Abortion Protestor SC The Left’s Fascination with Death...

If we were to evaluate the ideology of the Left, we would find a common thread that runs through all flavors of Marxist, Socialist, Communist, and Progressive Democratic beliefs; and that is that death is integral with the inculcation of their philosophies. The Germans, Russians, and Chinese used a brutal implementation of their beliefs as they transformed their societies and nations in a compressed time span that resulted in conservatively 262 million deaths in the 20th century alone.

To accomplish this slow transformation, it is vital to attack and destroy our nation’s long-standing Judeo-Christian values, principles, and mores and advocate lifestyles that do not require commitment to their fellow man, much less raising a family. The single most frightening statement heard by today’s youth is: “dude, you knocked-up your girlfriend?”

The answer of course is the abortionist.

Why should he or she be burdened with any responsibilities at such a young age? Ironically,“think of the children” is the left’s constant refrain.

When a society accepts the unbridled slaughter of innocent lives least able to speak for themselves (approximately 50 million in the 40 years of Roe v. Wade) all under the guise of “it’s my body, my choice” then other choices become easier to make and become accepted by a so-called moral and just society.

However, the left continues to advocate the destruction of personal responsibility so that other more destructive agendas are possible. We see it with the endless social engineering of welfare programs that take personal responsibility to a new low.

The ultimate accusation of these society-destroying policies becomes evident when we see multi-generational families conditioned to abrogate personal responsibility for themselves, their families, and their neighbors from a paternalistic so-called benevolent state with benefits that meet their basic needs into perpetuity. While, at the same time making them covetous of others’ success by the soul-destroying envy of dependence, exploited to full measure by Obama and his supporters of course.

In this heady brew of personal choice, responsibility is discouraged in favor of short-term solutions (sound familiar?) Washington has embraced this paradigm with all reasoned deliberation being thrown out the window for personal political gain by both Democrats and Republicans alike…what is in it for me?

We are implementing ObamaCare in a similar fashion to the European model with the same regulatory edicts becoming evident…we are beginning to see the full agenda for the aged in this rollout as another segment of innocent lives who have little use in a more enlightened society that the “left” envisions.

After paying a lifetime of tax revenues, it is now time for them to exit this life before they cost society too much in medical care in the autumn and winter season of their dwindling lives.

Dignity has nothing to do with transforming a nation.

We are seeing the much-maligned “death panels” that Sarah Palin warned us about being rolled out along with the willingness of government bureaucrats to regulate elders literally to death by denying them life-saving treatment. This is how the socialist model has played out in Europe as the internment and death camps of the past are much too disturbing to their citizens as a society educated to accept “DEATH” that these philosophies espouse is the preferred outcome.

All for the payment of their medical and long-term care from the State, there is a limit to their compassion.

This is in direct contrast to the gentle and humanistic philosophy of the individual as championed by our Constitution with citizens, making choices for themselves free from interference of the state for their own lives with the loving assistance of their family, friends, and clergy as they meet their failing health or demise on their own terms.

We are rapidly coming to the end game (fundamental transformation) as the nation is being manipulated by Obama and his cohorts to accelerate the transformational process begun in 2009 and bring his new society “Forward”  sooner than later.

This is where we are deviating from the European model.

The coming year will be filled with one assault after another against our basic freedoms in the all- too-familiar exaggerated media push that we must act in all haste, with Obama forever on the Stump. Failing the legislative avenue, the tyranny of the Executive Order will be used to full effect and accepted by a neutered Congress.

This can only mean that the left has grown impatient of the stealthy means of overthrow of this nation’s principles, or they feel they have accomplished their “re-educational” goals; take your pick.

Obama and his cohort are now preparing an all-out assault on our fundamental right to defend ourselves from all who would prey upon the citizens in our nation. Whether they are criminals, gangsters, Islamists, or our own government since they now wish to disarm the nation’s citizens of the means to throw off such tyranny or brutality.

Obama’s first objective is to marginalize and criminalize law-abiding citizens by characterizing them as pariahs who exercise their antiquated concept of our Second Amendment rights and freedoms. At the same time, he will reward another huge segment of our society that actually are criminals that have willingly broken our laws by bestowing amnesty on them…by granting citizenship to illegal aliens.

Consequently, cartel drug gangs are comprised mostly of illegal aliens and are arming themselves with high-power military-style “Assault Weapons” and pose a very real threat to citizens and law enforcement alike. One has to wonder whether they are getting weapons supplied from Hezbollah through the Mexican drug cartel pipeline that Eric Holder and Obama set up with Fast & Furious along with the poison they are spreading onto our streets.

In Obama’s ultimate wisdom, he has eliminated the National Drug Intelligence Center (NDIC) that coordinated and reduced crime from Drug Cartels and their violence, which account for the vast majority of all murders in our nation (some place this estimate as high as 75%. )This agency was eliminated in June 2011; however, Obama failed to tout during last year’s contentious election an astonishing 60% reduction and elimination of cartel activity in 1500 American cities from 2010 to 2011 in an incredible one year’s time frame prior to disbanding of the NDIC.

Such a remarkable law enforcement effort should have been shouted from the rooftops!

Not claiming victory over such a major threat to the Nation seems unlikely and sketchy at best from a regime that puffs up the smallest details of other areas of their so-called accomplishments, particularity economic data. Speaking about economic data, in another curious move, Obama eliminated a similar agency in 2011 as well that reports on economic intelligence data that had been in constant publication since 1878 and listed all government spending right down to zip code.

Not having the means to verify the spending makes it impossible to reconcile the deficit spending that Congress does not budget for in the first place. One of the cornerstones of a Democratic Republic is open government and reporting of its activities; our government is going dark as Obama and his cohorts put policies in place to dismantle our nation.

This topsy-turvy scheme is readily apparent to the more rational amongst us, those of us destined for re-education, being caught in the crossfire or death depending on our age by a paternalistic and benevolent state in the age of Obama as the end game unfolds. The media, academia, and our legislators appear to celebrate this agenda, as they are all complicit in these nation-destroying acts as they revel in carving-up the spoils of the moribund carcass of this once great nation and line their own pockets with the proceeds.

However, there is still time to turn back the clock and this march to our eventual national suicide as a Constitutional Republic. The makers in our society, the 53% that actually pay income taxes, should act with one voice and refuse to send any more of the “Fruits of their Labor” to Washington in the form of TAXES.

In effect, I propose starving the Beast of revenue in a modern Tax Revolt modeled on 1776. We must exhaust all peaceful means to stop the destruction of the Republic. In addition, we must simply refuse to be disarmed.

If you think about it, we are actually giving the means of our own destruction to brigands that cannot even perform the rudiments of their Constitutional duty by passing a stinking budget as they “eat out our existence” with onerous taxes that are squandered on sycophants, supporters, and constituents of Obama and the indolent that he has created, whole heatedly supports, endorses, and panders to.

In addition, taxpayers are required to continue in his endeavor by unjust laws to support such folly as Obama rides the so-called rich, corporations, businesses, and taxpayers into the ground for his own ends. Rational men and women will indeed make other choices bringing us into headlong confrontation with elements that are bringing us to our very destruction and the Left’s fascination with death.

The Fate Of The Republic Is In The Hands Of One Man…

January 6, 2013 by 107 Comments

US Flag 3 SC The Fate of the Republic is in the Hands of One Man...

Chief Justice John G. Roberts will give, by long-standing tradition, the following Oath to Obama on January 21, 2013:

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

When Obama released his fraudulent long-form birth certificate on April 27, 2011, he proclaimed to the World that he is a usurper of the Office of President as he is not a Natural Born Citizen! His Father was a British Citizen of Kenya, making Obama a British Subject at birth. Let that soak in for a moment, so he cannot be a Natural Born Citizen. Since a Natural Born Citizen is defined as a “Child born of two citizen parents“ Obama is not NATURAL BORN….

Roberts should be familiar with Minor v. Happersett, where SCOTUS defined a Natural Born Citizen in 1875 as shown below:

It was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.

(Note: bold and underlined “parents” is my emphasis.)

The office of President is the only office in the land that has this condition, and Roberts should know as Chief Justice that John Jay (our first Chief Justice) is the one who advocated for this condition on the office of President. An excerpt from his letter to George Washington when he was the President of the Constitutional Convention that assembled in Philadelphia to draft the Constitution is as follows:

Permit me to hint whether it would not be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of foreigners into the administration of our national government; and to declare expressly that the command in chief of the American army shall not be given to, nor devolve on any but a natural born citizen.

This is why the Constitution has this requirement for the Office of President… in Article II Sec. 1 Clause 5.

This was to guarantee that the President did not have divided loyalties as we have with Obama and his Muslim roots. The following link is from an Egyptian source that verifies domestic sources of Treason from Obama.

If Chief Justice Roberts administers the Oath of Office to Obama in defiance of the Constitution and his own knowledge, the Republic is as good as dead; and he will have handed the Coup de Grace to the nation and opened himself to impeachment.

He must publicly stand and denounce Obama as unfit to lead and refuse to swear him in. That is, if  he intends to comply with his Oath to “Protect and Defend the Constitution…from all enemies Foreign or Domestic”!

We will have to wait and watch what will unfold; may he have the conviction of a patriot and stand for the Constitution. If he does not…who will?

The World wonders…our Republic is now in the hands of one man and one man only!

Senator Feinstein’s Constitutional End-Run

January 5, 2013 by 13 Comments

Dianne Feinstein SC Senator Feinsteins Constitutional End Run

There’s more than a touch of hypocrisy in the recent exploitation of the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy by the MSM, Obama, and the Democrats. All the wanton murders due to Fast and Furious (estimated at 300 or more) do not appear equal to one life lost at Sandy Hook. The administration paid criminals to illegally arm drug cartels in Mexico, choosing to supply them with none other than “assault weapons”, mostly AK-47′s with some Barrett .50 caliber BMG rifles and a few hand grenades thrown in for good measure.

The result was the deaths of federal agents Brian Terry and Jaime Zapata, along with another thirteen American citizens and several hundred Mexicans. Another disgusting milepost for 2012 is the 500th homicide in Chicago, Obama’s and Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s hometown. This sad statistic was achieved when Nathaniel Jackson was shot and died at the scene on December 27th at 9:00 P.M. as he stood on a street corner.

The MSM has largely been silent about these tragedies, choosing instead to concentrate on the victims at Newtown. In the process, they overlook at least 440 child gunshot victims with 60 fatalities in Chicago this past year alone.

This brings us to Senator Feinstein’s attempt to revive the National Firearms Act (NFA) of 1934 with her recently drafted gun control legislation. She will introduce this revamped legislation to the Senate in January in an effort to resolve our supposed epidemic of violence as revealed by Obama in his Sandy Hook speech to the nation. In effect, what this darling of the left has done is reintroduce all of the weapons that were not subject to registration initially.

This is simply a national gun-registration scheme; a synopsis of the NFA follows:

The National Firearms Act (“NFA”), 72nd Congress, Sess. 2, ch. 757, 48 Stat. 1236, enacted on June 26, 1934, currently codified as amended as 26 U.S.C. ch. 53, is an Act of Congress in the United States that, in general, imposes a statutory excise tax on the manufacture and transfer of certain firearms and mandates the registration of those firearms. (Note: bold emphasis is mine)

Originally, pistols and revolvers were to be regulated the same as machine guns, though they were exempted as the legislation moved its way through Congress. Feinstein’s expansion of the NFA will include all of the weapons they had the intelligence to exclude previously.

It is interesting to note that the NFA became law right after the repeal of Prohibition. Congressmen of the day were intimately familiar with how unintended consequences play out from their legislative intent. Prohibition released a murderous rampage of gang-related violence on this nation dwarfing anything we have seen since, leading to the expansion of the Mafia and other organized crime syndicates that are still with us today, another testament to a benevolent Congress.

These weapons are individually registered to the owner. You are not allowed to transfer them without the express permission of the government. Transporting the weapon across state lines for any purpose without government approval beforehand is illegal. This is also applicable to each weapon you currently own. Senator Feinstein’s draft does not discuss the waiver of the $200.00 fee to register “grandfathered” weapons in the NFA database.

To legally posses an NFA weapon requires that the chief law enforcement officer (CLEO) in your area of residence sign a BATF form that expressly allows the citizen to possess such weapons. You will also need to submit photographs of yourself, a fingerprint card, and, of course, pay the $200.00 fee and possibly a registered Class III Transfer Agent, with his fee as well.

Imagine a harried rural or county sheriff overwhelmed by the sheer volume of requests made to his office. This will probably place many weapons in limbo while the documents are in process. No doubt, they will enact some method of holding these weapons while this plays out, probably leading to many lost, stolen, or outright confiscated weapons by attrition.

Not to mention how many LEOs will be required to perform the background checks on individuals for weapons that are already legally owned, taking them away from legitimate law enforcement duties. This will probably lead many local law enforcement agencies to throw up their hands and refuse to comply with these new requirements, again leaving law-abiding citizens in limbo with lawful weapons in their possession, subjecting them to arrest and prosecution and leaving many weapons surrendered by default.

I have to wonder how many leftist CLEOs will choose this route? Los Angeles, Detroit, Newark, and Chicago to name just a few cities play host to such officials. Of course, they will excuse themselves with “legitimate” budget-busting cover stories… if only we had the funds….

You get the idea.

These tactics are nothing short of a backdoor scheme to render legal weapons illegal by redesignating them through the NFA as equivalent to automatic weapons. The result will be a national gun registration database for conventional arms. At the same time, these very same legislators (along with Obama) have encouraged untold carnage and mayhem through policies of looking the other way regarding the inner cities of this nation, Mexico, South America, and the Middle East as our government willingly supplies criminals, jihadists, and cartels with weapons.

Now in their ultimate wisdom, they wish to make pariahs and criminals out of law-abiding citizens by means of an act of Congress that will force us to reapply for our lawful and legally-owned weapons for a false premise of security from ourselves.

Discussing the real reason for the Sandy Hook tragedy is beyond the gun control mentality of the leftists currently ensconced into the media, educational institutions, and seats of power in this nation. It is simply about power and control… not guns. The action of our president in Fast and Furious, the arming of Al Qaeda in Libya and Syria, and the pipeline of illegal weapons funneled by the Mexican drug cartels back into our nation renders this clear enough.

We are in far more danger from these actions of our own government than from another Sandy Hook atrocity by a crazed killer.

The Second Amendment’s purpose is to provide for the citizens’ defense from all who would deny their natural God- given right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” against a criminal, a foreign or domestic enemy, or our own government. We will witness the end of the Republic if this proposed legislation is passed, since all of our rights flow from the citizen’s ability to defend them.

As for this citizen, I will never disarm or surrender my Second Amendment rights, much less willingly comply with such a traitorous act of Congress if enacted. It is actions like these that light revolutionary fervor in a nation and its citizens. It did so in 1776, and it will do so again.

Islam As A Force For Global Domination

September 19, 2012 by 4 Comments

Islam symbol SC Islam as a Force for Global Domination

Our founding principles of religious tolerance are enumerated in the First Amendment of our Constitution. As a free and able people, we allow everyone to practice their beliefs as they see fit as long as they do not infringe on the rights of others.  We have a long history of tolerance and intolerance in this regard, if we look at the persecution of the Mormon faith; being expelled from Missouri by violent means and their exile to the Utah desert is just one example of religious intolerance.

Even though this barbaric act is unforgivable, it is not a fundamental flaw in the religious practice of Christianity. Nor was the persecution of Chinese Buddhists, when they came to our shores to build the trans-continental railroad, a fundamental problem with Christianity either.

So, we can have intolerance and bigotry without the underlying religion being the cause of any heinous acts done in its name.

Can the same be said of Islam?

Our leaders have failed to understand that this may well be the fundamental problem with Islam and that for lack of a better description, it does not play well with others.

The intolerance of Islam is not one of human foibles, as our histories have demonstrated, but are ingrained in its core as it teaches adherents to be unwilling to accept others and their differences on a human and religious level.

In effect, “submit or die”, as they conquered much of the Middle East, Arabia, and parts of Spain and North Africa going back to the middle ages.

This is in stark contrast to Christianity with its fundamentally humanistic teachings (such as “am I not my brothers’ keeper?”) as its foundational precept and beliefs.  Judaism has the same guiding principals. Buddhism teaches the duality of all things and balance between good and evil as human development is always at the core of each individual. Shinto beliefs comprise a nature-centered religion and again do not subjugate any others for their belief system.  The same can be said for the Taoist- and Confucius-centered beliefs; Islam is the only religion to require the subjugation of others.

Islam at its core is a religion with a political and legal system interwoven into its beliefs as a theocracy that has bred so many atrocities in its history of intolerance, not because of human foibles and bigotry. It teaches its adherents that they are superior and are allowed to abuse non-believers who would dare insult Allah and its prophet Mohammed many times by the simple act of merely being alive.

These teaching are in the Koran itself with some of the more descriptive directives below:

(Quran 9.29) Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection. 

(Quran 5:33): The Punishment for those who oppose Allah and his messenger is: Execution or Crucifixion or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides or exile from the land. 

These are just two examples that are within Islam’s teachings giving many of their faith the license to react as they choose at the expense of others to destroy peace, property, and human lives. We are experiencing the rise of Islam from their self imposed exile of fifteen hundred years into a new age where our philosophies are coming into conflict.

At first, Islam was content to squabble amongst themselves in their sphere of influence, the Middle East and the Arab nations. No more; their ambitions are now global domination and the creation of a worldwide Islamic Caliphate. The destruction of Israel is the paramount preliminary goal, as well as the neutering of the United States as a precursor to assist in this objective.

Many European nations are in the second stage of Islamization, with Great Britain leading the way and Scandinavia, France. and Germany not far behind.

As these nations fall to Islam by the sheer number of their citizens being Muslims, they spread their influence by political and social means. They have been effective at stifling the western tradition of religious tolerance by eliminating resistance to their replacement of our traditional Christian values. They do not demand accommodation but complete cessation.

Our western tradition of charity for all people is not shared by Islam as many so-called Islamic charitable organizations have been found to be nothing but front organizations that have funneled money to jihadist groups and organizations for their war of terror. So the verdict is still out on these groups as legitimate charities, with CAIR being front and center in this debate in the United States.

This should be a glaring and obvious indication that Islam is something else masquerading as a religion.

In addition to this neon sign post, we now have the top Muslim to the U.N calling for an end to free speech if it offends Islam, so if we collectively do not cease these types of random acts of speech as is our western tradition, it will incite violence and threaten world peace.

The world must now be silenced to their liking in the name of Islam!

Pardon me, but isn’t a little self control called for here? Am I out of touch that as a world community we expect civil discourse versus riotous behavior when Islam is possibly impugned or offended? Is tolerance even in their dictionary?  Islam expects, no, demands tolerance in abundance from everyone else, though it gives nothing in return except ever more demands to assuage their sensibilities; where will this end?

Islam in and of itself is incompatible with our Judeo-Christian values of democracy and our legal system based on the rule of law as a free and able people.

Canada has been the only country in the western hemisphere to take a stand against Iran as Islam’s most rabid proponents and have ejected Iranian Diplomats from their country and closed their Embassy in Iran.

Our leaders appear powerless to deal with this conflict at its root level.

Instead, the Obama administration is falling in line with Islamic demands that we prosecute and punish the producers of the ‘Innocence of Muslims’ movie; the FBI has already been dispatched to locate the producer of this movie, who has been questioned by Federal authorities. The State Department and Obama have been more than willing to denounce this movie in no uncertain terms as harming the sensibilities of Muslims everywhere, which only allows them to continue the subjugation of other people.

In other words, “submit or die.”

This is in direct conflict of our First Amendment rights of our Constitution; the danger here is that once the messenger is blamed for the actions of the perpetrators, they become dangerous constitutional grounds for our nation and our way of life.

The fundamental question that our nation and leaders must grapple with is: do we wish to be held hostage to a movement (Islam) that will continue to demand that we submit to its ever-increasing demands of subjugation to a religion with a history of fifteen hundred years of human rights abuses?

I am sure the American people do not; however, our leaders seem to be wavering with Obama and Hilary leading the way. After all, we know where they stand on genocide!

Great satire in this video that illustrates the lunacy, double talk, and hypocrisy of the left and their selective viewpoints, who depend on any opportunity to smear conservatives.

Politics Of Racial Division: Hillary And Obama Ignoring Genocide Against Whites

August 26, 2012 by 21 Comments

Hillary Clinton 10 SC Politics of Racial Division: Hillary and Obama Ignoring Genocide against Whites

Hillary Clinton, the liberal darling of the left — lately touted as the replacement for our “gaffe-prone” vice president, Joe Biden — has certainly proven herself to be a team player on Obama’s and the Democrats’ policy of division and opportunism in all things racial. She has just completed a trip to South Africa, where she discussed numerous issues with Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, South African minister of international relations and cooperation.  The two politicians issued a joint statement for strategic dialog.

Here is a partial list of the strategic initiatives they agreed to:

  • the signing of a US$2 billion declaration of intent between the Export-Import Bank of the U.S. and South Africa’s Industrial Development Corporation to provide credit guarantees to stimulate development of South Africa’s renewable energy sector;
  • the launch of the US$500,000 Opportunity grants program, which will help disadvantaged South African students cover testing and application expenses, and international travel for study in the United States;
  • A collaboration between USAID, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and the Competition Commission of South Africa, to provide capacity building assistance to competition agencies in the Southern Africa region;USAID grants to assist with water resource management in the Limpopo and Orange-Senqu trans-boundary river

You get the idea about what this statement and trip were all about: building ties in a troubled world by reaching out to our global neighbors.  What was conspicuously absent was any statement from Hillary or Obama on the atrocities being committed against the Afrikaners in the region. Genocide Watch, an international alliance to end genocide, chronicles the crimes against the Boers by a member organization of the ANC (South Africa’s ruling party in power), and officials of the South African government are prompting Genocide Watch to place South Africa alternately between stage 5 (“polarization”) and stage 6 (“preparation”) of their genocide scale.

Since 1994, the Boers have been subject to random killings, rapes, and property crimes by members of the Youth League of the ANC and others.  Here is an excerpt from their statement by Genocide Watch:

Over 3000 white farmers have been murdered since 1994. The South African police have not made investigation and prosecution of these farm murders a priority, dismissing them as crimes by common criminals.  The government has disbanded the commando units of white farmers that once protected their farms, and has passed laws to confiscate the farmers’ weapons.  Disarmament of a targeted group is one of the surest early warning signs of future genocidal killings.

A recent outbreak of violent farm invasions has led to casualties among white South Africans. The farm invasions are direct results of calls by Julius Malema and his Deputy, Ronald Lamola for whites to give up their land without compensation, or face violence by angry black youths “flooding their farms.”

My personal favorite discussion point between Hillary and South Africa is the two-billion-dollar credit guarantees for renewable energy. Good to know her priorities are straight in elevating a decidedly leftist green international agenda above egregious human rights violations.

When we have such tyranny and genocide happening in South Africa, and Hillary is discussing “green energy,” we certainly know where Obama’s regime is on this issue: namely, tacit approval.  A search of the State Department’s website did not produce any condemnation for these acts or atrocities.

For instance, this video should curdle the blood of anyone, much less one from a “black” racial heritage, like Obama.  In short, the president of South Africa is singing a song in January 2012 that talks about exterminating the Boers from South Africa. One of the most telling lines in the song is “the cabinet will shoot them with the machine gun.” I hate to break it to Hillary, but when the president of South Africa implicates his own Cabinet in plans for mass extermination, this government is organized to commit genocide.

Here is the consequence of singing this hate song by President Zuma from the same Genocide Watch statement:

Since Zuma began to sing the hate song on 12 January 2012, murders of White farmers increased every month through April 2012, the last month for which there are confirmed figures.

And all Hillary can find to talk about is green energy?

Even worse, the Obama regime has clearly turned an official blind eye to such slaughter in the form of the recently renamed “fact sheets” on the State Department’s website on South Africa. These web pages make no mention of the Boers’ plight — another sign of tacit approval. The Bush administration used the traditional background notes and mentioned the racial strife and violence, as well as Obama until January 30, 2012 which was the last edition for South Africa before the creation of the fact sheets.

What is even more disturbing is this statement by Hillary on July 24, 2012 at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Forward-Looking Symposium on Genocide Prevention. She had the perfect opportunity to forewarn and telegraph South Africa at this symposium prior to her August trip, as she specifically mentioned several nations that were on the brink of genocide — but South Africa was conspicuously absent from her litany.

Third, we are enhancing our civilian surge capacity. We already have personnel trained to analyze conflicts and defuse potentially violent situations. Now we will be using those personnel to focus on atrocity prevention. We have deployed our Civilian Response Corps to countries such as South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sri Lanka, and Kyrgyzstan.

Hillary later went on to mouth these words during the same speech:

Well, genocides and mass atrocities don’t just happen spontaneously. They are always planned. Genocides are preceded by organized, targeted propaganda campaigns carried out by those in power. Extremist leaders spread messages of hate often disguised as something else – a song on the radio, a nursery rhyme, or a picture book. The messages filter down. Those in power begin to dehumanize particular groups or scapegoat them for their country’s problems. Hatred not only becomes acceptable; it is even encouraged. It’s like stacking dry firewood before striking the match. Then there is a moment of ignition. The permission to hate becomes permission to kill.

Hilary’s silence on the plight of the Afrikaners in spite of objective evidence of her own measure and words is not enough for her or Obama to condemn the atrocities, clearly being instigated by President Zuma, his Cabinet, and member organizations of the ANC.

On July 26, 2012, Dr. Stanton, Chairman of Genocide Watch, informed the Minister-Counselor at our South African embassy (09:56 on video) about the organized atrocities and murders of white and Afrikaner farmers. This means that Hilary Clinton knew the gravity of the atrocities at least twelve days prior to her visit, and all she could do was play nice with their officials with diplomatic banter of little consequence, much less require the presence of the Secretary of State. These matters could have been handled by the Ambassador, so why did she go in the first place?

She is intentionally ignoring these atrocities before, during, and after her visit.

Instead of any affirmative action on the Afrikaners’ behalf, the newly created “fact sheet” was posted on the State Department website the same day that Hilary gave her genocide speech of the 24th.  The past references to racial violence in the background notes was removed from the fact sheets altogether, sanitizing it to tout Obama instead.  This was done two weeks prior to her official visit, no doubt tidying-up everything for her visit.

Her speech at the Holocaust Museum were merely a long string of platitudes and empty promises that reflect the failed Obama regime and ring hollow against the atrocities occurring in South Africa.

What other conclusion can be made?

Obama Surrogates are Polarizing our Nation with Racial Hatred and Political Division

When you factor in the prolific references to “race” by Obama’s surrogates, it makes one wonder what in fact they have in store for this nation. Joe Biden’s recent comment about placing people “back in chains” is an overt reference to our nation’s racial past. On a positive note, Charlie Rangel, the Congressman from New York, had an entertaining and correct assessment of Joe Biden’s remark.

However, what is more telling is this video from MoveOn.org, named “REVEALED: THE GOP STRATEGY.” (Hint: it’s racist.)  To wit, Obama surrogates are purposely fomenting racial hatred against the GOP and conservatives in this nation.

The liberal Super-PAC Haphak America has called for the destruction of the GOP and advocates that the Party be disqualified; here is a sample of their rhetoric:

Ruiz said, too, that the GOP has “become a subversive element by manipulating voter ID laws and rulings through their systematic strategy to disenfranchise 5 million voters, evident most recently in 3 key battle ground states of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida, using these tactics to regain power.”

Their statements appears to prove a concerted effort between these leftist organizations as they are using the same 5 million voters that MoveOn.org uses when they discuss the fantasy of the so-called voter suppression campaign of the GOP.

How many other left leaning organizations are coordinating their assault?

The Daily Caller has uncovered evidence that Media Matters for America (another left leaning media organization) has been coordinating with the White House, other news agencies, and organizations to spread Obama’s agenda, spin, and perspective on various issues and has been doing so since he became president.

We also have the suppression by the MSM of all the black-on-white assaults and killings in this nation (reported only by Joseph Farah on WND and other conservative outlets) to complete the left’s efforts to polarize the nation’s electorate.

Parting Thoughts

It leaves me to wonder whether Hillary’s mission was a fact-finding tour to see firsthand how one actually instigates racial hatred against others. I wonder: would her and Obama’s stance be different if the Afrikaners and the Boers were anything but white?

Without belaboring the point, we know the left has a long and bloody history of genocide in the 20th century.  I cannot help but wonder what is around the corner when our own government will not condemn the atrocities in South Africa for what they are.

The silence from Obama on the racial hatred being spewed on his behalf is unforgivable and only shows how desperate he is to maintain his grip on the nation, regardless of consequences. Romney has started to respond to this with his “take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago” statement.  This nation is being polarized and torn apart; it is up to the citizens to stop this before it ends in anarchy.

Dr. Stanton gives advice to the Afrikaners and discusses our 2nd Amendment rights (04:14 on video) that we should heed if we or they are to remain a free and able people. His advice is simply to never disarm regardless of the laws that are passed to force a people to disarm; it is our last line of defense against tyranny.
