Right to Keep & Bear Arms and Right to Vote


The right to keep and bear arms is guaranteed by The Second Amendment to The Constitution, ratified in December 1791. A right to vote is not mentioned until Amendment 24, ratified in 1964. It is an obvious conclusion that a right to keep and bear arms had a higher priority than any right to vote in the minds of The Founders.


Today, gun control advocates, i.e. liberals and progressives, are proposing background checks for gun purchases. Then, aren’t background checks to vote, such as voter ID, at least as justifiable?


That should be answered by those who would restrict our right to have firearms but I won’t hold my breath. The question will likely never be asked. Liberals and progressives might have to think and that might get them flustered.

Liberty Tree

Liberals want the Constitution to be "living" document", AND which means letting one of the leftist patsy judges interpret it anyway that suits them.

Big dog

The reason why we Have the 2nd amendment is to prevent these liberal politicians from doing exactly what they are trying to do. Remember that.

A statement so obvious it doesn't even need mentioning. But in the case of the so many on the left, we need a plunger to jam it down their throats.

But it is harder to cheat if every state has voter I.D. ant there voter registration rolls are all up to date that will make it plum difficult for the democrats to come up with enough votes for anything.

Beto claims he's talked to some of us Texans and we will willingly give up our AR-15s.
One guy supposedly said he enjoyed shooting it, but his kids are worried about school shooters, so he'll give it up.
No mister, you'd be guarding your kids school with it.
Someone on Twitter told him come get it, barrel first.
Beto said, that's a threat.
The man told him, no your take it t shirt is a threat.
A republican congressman told him come take it.

Beto knows the best way to shoot his own foot.
Let the Democrats agenda out of the bag, confirming our suspicions.

Tug484

Yes, a total tool.
I watched a video and the guy said, let's listen to Betos new theme song.
It was a circus calliope.
How appropriate.

Their (the judges') problem is SCOTUS' job is to interpret the Constitution, not them.

You haven't figured it out yet is do-as-i-say-not-as-i-do that is the Progressive Way and when they pass their policies it becomes regressive because it takes us back into the Stone Age because no other policies actually claimed to do what they say they're going to do they make the problems worse. Well the gun lobbyists now aren't talking about background checks now that the Democratic clown show has all but decided that they're going to go for the all-out confiscation of the second amendment that means they're going to have federal agents showing up at your door confiscating your weapons and thinking that they're not going to go home and body bags well I got news for you yeah they are you come and try to take our guns you're going to die of lead poisoning. Then after we're done with that then we're going to take our business to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and after we've done overthrowing the government I guess they'll understand the meaning of the Second Amendment because the only reason why they want to abolish the 2nd Amendment it's not because they don't believe we have a right to protect ourselves it's because they don't like the claws in it that says we have a right to protect ourselves against a tyrannical government and that scares them to death goes if the left is ever going to get the power that they seek they have to turn into the Bolsheviks does anyone not see the correlation between the Democratic party and the Bolshevik Revolution they sound just alike people y'all need to go back and re-read history and find out some of the stuff that was said during the Bolshevik Revolution and you'll hear the same stuff coming out of these Democrats mouth. I've already seen this history novel and it's not going to turn out well for them cuz we don't have a czar like Russia did and we don't have a caste system like most of Europe I don't guess they follow this one through too much you can't rule a country that was never meant to be ruled that's part of Sun Tzu The Art of War. Our country was never meant to be ruled because we overthrew our to radical government otherwise known as the English Empire and we destroyed it thoroughly Cornwallis was all but happy to surrender instead of facing an apparent death by the hands of George Washington! In these far leftist people think that they're going to just come in and take over this country like we're just going to give them power know you're going to have to come and take it by force and they don't have the balls to do it!

If Dems win, we'll be living like the Flintstones in Bedrock.
They won't let us eat bronto burgers though.
