Title: He Had a Gun and Nothing Happened

From New Hampshire to Arizona, Americans openly carrying firearms have been seen outside presidential appearances. The most remarkable thing about this is that some find this behavior to be remarkable.

American citizens are the sovereigns in our system of government. Indeed, We the People created the government which, at least in theory, only does what we tell it to do in the Constitution. Sovereigns are expected to be armed.

The Second Amendment was added to our Constitution to ensure that the individual right to keep and bear arms not be infringed. Infringement would impair the proper functioning of the militia which had been America’s homeland security system all through colonial times and well into our republican era.

The armed attendees made it clear that they were exercising their right to keep and bear arms. Zero tolerance of firearms has become so extreme that even a picture of a gun can get a student kicked out of school. The presence of armed citizens helps correct the notion that guns are inherently dangerous.

Americans are increasingly deciding to go about openly carrying firearms even when they might legally carry concealed. Some would like to say that this constitutes disturbing the peace. It is a strange view that accepts as normal a police officer openly carrying a firearm but finds it alarming when a sovereign citizen -- the cop’s boss -- does the same.

In addition to the educational value of going about openly armed, the presence of such citizens has another positive impact. Real homeland security is being maintained. The Secret Service is tasked with protecting the president and other select individuals -- and nobody else.

For those who object to openly armed citizens being present near presidential events, do they have any concern for the wellbeing of those who do not benefit from Secret Service protection?

A few years ago, I was at a conference where the governor of the state of Arizona was to speak. Shortly before the appointed time a member of the governor’s security detail came into the room from a service entrance, looked around the audience which included at least a dozen people openly carrying sidearms, ducked out of sight and returned with the governor.

The governor’s security was aware of the armed attendees, and was also aware that the guns were holstered and obviously under control. They evidently thought that was proper gun control.

There are those who don’t like Americans owning guns at all, let alone carrying them openly. They can be counted on to run around squawking like Chicken Little that the sky is falling -- a calamity brought about by the presence of an armed citizen in public. We are warned that: “Somebody might grab the gun and do something bad! The armed citizen will intimidate others! Tempers will flare and blood will run in the streets!”

These are the same alarms that are sounded when any measure designed to facilitate citizens keeping and bearing arms is advanced. And the alarms are always false. Before passage of Florida’s concealed carry law, for example, we were warned that the Sunshine State would become the Gunshine State. But the fearmongers were all wrong, as evidenced by the way the state’s murder rate fell through the floor.

One would think that consistently being wrong would be embarrassing, but one would be wrong about those who assume that common citizens are untrustworthy and dangerous.

A tip of the hat to those who have stirred the debate. And, our thanks to them for exercising proper gun control and reminding us of how homeland security should be conducted.

We have the Second Amendment so that the State might remember and respect the fact that the People still have TEETH.

Let the scummy elites that think they run this joint bear that in mind also.

They do, and that is what scares them and is the real impetus behind "gun control". Disarmed citizens can't fight back. We remain as free as our people are willing to fight back.

problem, reaction, solution....i think we're being set up...bummer is anti-gun/anti-ammunition...NOW all of a sudden he and his phalanx of secret service [who work for the bank of england] are respecting the right to bear arms?...wonderful if true, but somehow i doubt it, and think we are being played like a fiddle.

want to know who owns the militia?

The GOVERNMENT does, thanks to the liar and deceiver and elitist George Washington, called by those in the know, the Father of the modern British Empire!

i think they're looking to spark revolution III so they can bring their civil war rules for engagement openly into view [never rescinded, still in effect, and we have been living under martial law since the Civil War, and were declared enemies of the state in 1933]:

Avalon Project - General Orders No. 100 : The Lieber Code

"...150. Civil war is war between two or more portions of a country or state, each contending for the mastery of the whole, and each claiming to be the legitimate government. The term is also sometimes applied to war of rebellion, when the rebellious provinces or portions of the state are contiguous to those containing the seat of government.

151. The term rebellion is applied to an insurrection of large extent, and is usually a war between the legitimate government of a country and portions of provinces of the same who seek to throw off their allegiance to it and set up a government of their own...." avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/lieber.asp

As the ADL says, THE SOVEREIGN CITIZEN MOVEMENT [which MANY PATRIOTS are of, and ALL CHRISTIANS should be - BE YE SEPARATE, COME OUT OF BABYLON, TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING AND I WILL BE A FATHER TO YOU, IF THE SON HATH SET YOU FREE, BE NOT ENTANGLED AGAIN IN BONDAGE, ETC.] IS MADE UP OF EXTREMISTS THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT SHOULD BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR.

As God told Rebekah, "There are two nations in your womb struggling to be born."

And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

Matthew Henry:

"....This struggle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan, [1.] In the world. The seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent have been contending ever since the enmity was put between them (ch. 3:15), and this has occasioned a constant uneasiness among men. Christ himself came to send fire on earth, and this division, Lu. 12:49, 51. But let not this be offence to us. A holy war is better than the peace of the devil's palace....."

[edit]

ON SEPTEMBER 11, 3 BC [the day Jesus Christ was born], the sideways sign [of Virgo] appeared briefly over Old Jerusalem, before the sun set.....and the Woman arose upright over the New Jerusalem across the oceans [America, founded with the First Virginia Charter to spread the gospel, and a cross planted at Cape Henry] and remained there all day....she looked more like this:

[ philologos.org/bpr/files/Sky_Signs/ss017.htm

[note: 9/11 was at the end of Jewish year 5761].

Bible says they are going to get their bloody war [Ezekiel 38-39/Rev. 20:7-10]. I guess there's no way around it.

There's a bit of a controvery over Zion [Psalm 2:6]. I guess maybe God will have to decide it.

http://bible.cc/matthew/13-43.htm

====================

edit: September 11, 3 BC [Gregorian calendar], translates to September 21, 3 BC [Julian calendar]. Astronomers go by the Julian calendar. The sign appears over America on September 21, 3 BC JULIAN.

The Pharisees call Jesus "Yeshu", which means "may His name be forgotten, or blotted out". I believe that is why they staged 9/11 on that day; also it coincides with Genesis 9:11 which ties in with their phony "Noahide Laws".

April 29, 1607 [Julian calendar], the day the colonists planted the cross, translates to April 19, 1607 [Gregorian], April 19 being a date that historically bears much affliction for Christians in America.

You're welcome. I meant to ping you. I still don't have the pictures available for America on September 11, 3 BC, although I have the program [Stellarium], and SAW it, but I am nowhere near adept at it, and don't have a clue how to post it. This is all so very frustrating. I have known America was the New Jerusalem for so long, and can't seem to get it across.

I really do think that's what's going on. "By deception thou shalt do war."

[note: 9/11 was at the end of Jewish year 5761].

This is typical of the accuracy of this message. The last day of the Jewish year 5761 was Monday, Sept. 17th 2001. And I might add that, across the country, synagogues were only about half-full because of jitters following the WTC attacks.

As Cornwallis told George Washington "A holy war will now begin against America....."

Another example of this guy's accuracy. Everyone who studied the life of Washington or the War of Independence knows that Cornwallis refused to meet with Washington. Moreover, biographies of Cornwallis never mention any such opinion as this.
