This is about the only thing I can agree with Cheney on.

Good on the Veep and those 300 senators and reps.

Heck, everyone in the country, historicaly speaking, has known that the Second Amendment is to protect an individual's right to KEEP and bear arms, save a few leftist liberal commies like Pelosi, Feinstien, Boxer, Hitlery, Shumer. I'm sure I missed a few others who dispise the things that made this country great....

Oh, there are others out there in the undergrowth as well.

I've said before and I'll repeat again...

The second ammendment IS the one article in the original 10 that give the others their "Teeth"

Tyrants and Dictators PREFER unarmed SUBJECTS.

Now...if we can get the California legislature to lift the ban on high capacity semi automatic rifles and pistols...note I DIDN'T say assault weapons here...all will be well with the United States in regard to gun laws for the moment.

Note....assault weapons ARE by definition...fully automatic weapons.

Semi automatic weapons although they MAY resemble their fully automatic military version cousins are only rifles and pistols that RESEMBLE assault weapons.

I personally believe that the Congress needs to do away with ALL gun ownership laws concerning law abiding citizens and never look back.

In the long run...our country WOULD be a safer place to live.

It would ensure our rights to defend ourselves against ALL ENEMIES...

FOREIGN and DOMESTIC.

It is quite reassuring to know they'll never get mine. I have personaly self declared all of my guns exempt from any leftist liberal registrations or confications. God gave me that right.

Y'all should declare yours as well.

Don't forget BRADY

[obvious on]
No shock that Hitlery, Kennedy, Kohl, Pelosi, Feinstein, Boxer, and other key kommies choose not to support the belief that the 2nd amendment affords the premise of individuals to KEEP and BEAR arms.
[/obvious off]

You'll notice the lack of support by both Democrat Presidential hopefuls on the list as well.

This should be a real eyeopener for ALL gunowners in the US today.

If you're considering a vote for Hillary or Obama...and you're a gunowner...or even if you're not a gunowner, but you believe in the preservation of the Second Amendment of The Constitution...

Consider voting to preserve your Second Amendment Rights instead.

It's voting records on basic rights such as this that need a closer look.
