(Bob Russell – TeaParty.org) – The Democrat
leader of the Colorado State Senate, John Morse, recently stated, publicly,
that he just ignores his constituents, and tells his fellow State Senators to
do the same, because he doesn’t like their stand on gun control. Now
isn’t this just the height of arrogance and tyranny? He is a “servant of
the People” who swore to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United
States”? That dismissive and disgusted tone in his voice when referring
to “some people” should be an alarm to anyone, including voters registered as
Democrats.
Americans, this
is what we are facing with increasing frequency from elected officials at all
levels and in both political parties. This is truly a “bi-partisan” power
grab we are facing. The increasing degree of arrogance on the part of elected
officials shows how far they have gone in their plan to take total control over
our lives. It is one thing to have “discussions behind closed doors” and
another thing altogether when they just come out and brazenly boast about their
actions against We the People. This man and his entire party are
trampling on the Constitution and making no attempts to hide it any
longer. They are taking an “in your face” stand, daring We the People to
do something about it. The bully has thrown down the gauntlet for
everyone to see. He is openly challenging citizens to put a stop to
tyranny, his tyranny.
The entire Democrat Party, and the Republican Party as well, are
telling We the People that they can do as they wish and the Constitution means
nothing.
Republicans
posture and beat their chests for a while and then compromise on “common sense
gun control measures”, meaning they sign off on taking away our right to own
firearms as stated in the 2nd Amendment. The straw argument that “no one
should have the right to own a nuclear missile” just doesn’t fly with citizens.
There are some in Congress, and in state legislatures around the nation,
that are standing up for us and for the Constitution. They are being
pilloried by the political class of both parties and the lame stream media for
doing so. Anyone who has the temerity to challenge their “all-knowing
wisdom” is declared an “enemy of the state” and subject to a drone strike at
any moment because, according to Attorney General Eric Holder, “if the
President does it, it is legal”!!!!
This is the
stuff of dictatorships not a Constitutional Republic. I wrote a couple
of articles last month that address the problem of politicians and their
handlers who deny the rights of We the People. In the first one I
appealed to people with name recognition and/or immense wealth to “put their
money where their mouth is”, and challenged conservative voters to stand behind
them in this battle for liberty. In the second one I appealed to citizens
who are registered Democrats to think about what their party is doing to their
nation, and to their individual liberty.
This attitude
of “we know better and will ignore you peasants” has passed the point of
concern and has come to the point of outright danger. If they no longer
feel any necessity to hide their contempt for American citizens and for our way
of life, We the People are facing imminent subjugation. Our rights to self
–defense are being gutted by a government that holds the opinions of its
citizens in disdain and total disregard. They see themselves as the only
ones capable of making decisions that are “in our best interests”.
Our government is taking up arms against its own citizens.
The Department
of Homeland Security (sic) is buying billions of rounds of hollow point
bullets, designed for maximum damage to the human body (these aren’t for
“target practice”); tens of thousands of full automatic rifles, the true
“assault rifles”, not the semi-automatic kind you and I possess; are re-fitting
thousands of armored “Urban Rescue Vehicles”, the kind with gun ports, for use
in American cities; and helicopters fly through our skies shooting machineguns
in simulated “domestic unrest” scenarios. Martial Law is right around
the corner.
They will
isolate citizens and confiscate their firearms, or kill the citizen who refuses
to surrender their protection, over little or nothing, mostly “imagined
offenses” as is happening in California right now. They like to throw the
mental health issue out into the arena because they know Republicans will hide
behind the need to “keep the guns out of the hands of the mentally
deranged”. Of course, that category now applies to any veteran, whether
they have seen combat or not. And who will define “mental illness”, Sen.
Diane Feinstein? Even now people who believe the Constitution is the law
of the land and the basis for our nation are called “extremists” by those in
power in both political parties.
How much of a
step is it to declare these same “extremists” as mentally ill for the purpose
of denying them their 2nd Amendment rights? The Democrat Party, and
their allies in the Republican Party, have this all designed to destroy the
Constitution and to subjugate We the People. Establishment operatives in
both political parties have joined forces to impose their will on the citizens
of America. They don’t care what we think, what we want, or what is
lawful. They desire the power to dictate our lives to us and this
Colorado State Senate president has come right out in the open and stated as
much. The message to We the People is “agree with us voluntarily or we
will impose agreement on you”.
Nanny Bloomberg
is doing the same thing in New York City, telling people of the nation that he
will impose our best interests on us if we refuse to acquiesce voluntarily.
This has to
stop, and We the People must stop it, if liberty is to be re-established.

The practical
reason for citizen gun ownership is deterrence to home invasion by
criminals. Countries who have banned gun
ownership are now breaking crime records and their citizens are demanding their
gun rights be returned (fat chance). Our 2nd Amendment Rights simply
say that our government cannot disarm us.
Gun legislation is by definition unconstitutional. We have reached the
point where we need to roll back unconstitutional laws that affect our liberty
and our ability to be productive and self-supporting. If we don’t do this, we will continue to see our
needless economic decline accelerate
