Here are some observations of what can only be described as, the illegal handling of the 2nd Amendment.

Today you can hear with regularity, "Violence has no part in our Democracy." Yet, across the board among those who support the 2A, you will also be equally hard-pressed to find any remaining expression to its germane purpose, which was to correct tyranny, if necessary, by the means of shedding blood.

We are accustomed to “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” To be a peacemaker means to engage unrest, that is if there remains some room for reason to have rational course as long as violence is not already being waged which would have exceeded our parameters of giving out "pearls".


The 2A is for taking aim at tyranny – State Superior Court judge (ret.un-named)

The interesting thing about this orphaned element of the Second Amendment is it is on everyone’s mind, never fully banished but seldom spoken and never allowed its original context. Is that any way to treat the firstborn of the 2ndA?

Again interesting, ask any law enforcement officer on what the likelihood of utilizing the 2nd Amendment for the sole purpose of removing a tyrant from power?


“Can you give me an example?

In my thinking, one of the hottest topics of the day, so much so amusingly – hazardous.

If I may indulge to walk a little further, I think this goes to the heart of Christianity’s continual uphill grind, politically. For ignoring this orphan isn’t the problem, only a glaring symptom of turning the “minister” / “servant” who lives and dies by the “sword” (Romans 13) outside of the Church into a deadbeat dad.

Who’s responsible? Don’t stop with the namby-pamby Christian who resisted such as that call, but those who are complicit within the Church to possibly treat that text as though spoken in vain or have filtered it away somehow from God’s will, or, have aligned with those who have taken it upon themselves to render the US founding document into the “living Constitution” (aka, Entrenched, Regime Maintenance) which surrenders more power to gov’t.

It has not been my experience that it is "seldom spoken." IME, it is spoken of quite frequently by a contingent on the right that harbors a sort of insurrection fantasy.

Bravo! Truly.

I hold my own view (limited experience) of a contingent unlikely to lead us in the paths of righteousness, , spare me the morality/gov't "mix" reader, there remains lack of correction to both sides of that. I prefer to supplement with a question, who indeed are the fanticizers? Those lovers of strife, or those who wish upon us all, just such an entrenchment?

BTW, insurrection and the right are not synonymous.

In regards to the following, do you possess ample proof to the contrary?

Some people think DC corruption is really, really bad. Trust me, it’s worse than that.
- Anonymous DC Insider

I would venture that a grave portion of the lot of us have no such persuasion, but fully “go along to get along” workable zone to abide in. And a hard one to argue at that, seeing we have such an obligation to “lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” (1 Tim 2:2) Oh, I seem to have forgotten what the premise for that Q&P life is?

I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, ,”

Now is that for all in authority no matter the trend, or those in authority who’s visible commitment to the established constraints of law are un-shakable if pressed unlawfully? That quiet life has just been defined by ardent and initial support. Not the current and manufactured trend of an “uprising”.

America’s beneficiaries (you and me) have declined to uncover the founder’s hard-fought wishes for America’s maintenance they have lovingly placed into our hands, to “preserves it’s liberties” by inwardly “preserve the spirit of resistance”. - President T. Jefferson

The 2nd Amendment’s grandfather, the Militia, would certainly object to today’s parse dilution AND relinquishment of individual freedom. The definition itself today is quite different than her origins sprang from.

Here is the true origin of our militia, ,the defense of himself and his fellows.”

A few choice flags here and there seems to be a common occurrence anymore.
