2nd Amendment: Overthrowing a Tyrannical Government

Posted on: January 8th, 2013

Given all the gun talk lately, Mark Levin opened his show tonight clarifying the purpose of the 2nd amendment saying that it wasn’t for target shooting or hunting or anything else in that realm. He said that whether you like it or not or whether you agree with it or not, the reason why 2nd amendment exists is to arm the population in order to overthrow a tyrannical government. That’s it.

  They are certainly throwing the American Citizens under the bus, that’s for sure.

It appears – and I believe – that the Obama Administration has been deliberately pushing us toward
rebellion by continually flouting the Constitution, and ruling through executive order and oppressive regulation.
I cannot imagine what good he thinks would come of it; I can only presume he expects to emerge victorious, and that some sort of Marxist Utopia to arise from the ashes.
But, in any event, if it’s a war against the American people he wants, I’m certain he’ll get it.

  Hillary disappeared for a couple of weeks. Was she over making a deal with the blue helmets I wonder?

I think this is a sideshow to take attention away from the economy. Once it collapses, they’ll start a “Guns For Food” program.

For years now, many of us have warned that Obama’s dearest wish is to disarm the American people. For all those years we’ve been scorned, ridiculed, and called paranoid. Guess what? Now it’s clear, he wants all our guns.

  I agree 2War Abn Vet. I’am a vet also,I’ve thought the same since day 1. The CT. shooting was a great opportunity for anti-gunners.

There are 80 million gun owners, I think we can get at least 50 million to march on DC w/guns to show who really has the power. Why is it, the 2ND is the only amendment we need permission to use ?

We have let them, chip away at our GOD given liberty’s……….ENOUGH! Now WE the People,must show

what real political correctness is !!! Let’s see,what the NRA does.

“Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy, censorship. When ANY government, or ANY church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it’s subjects, ‘This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,’ the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how good the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, NO amount of force can control a FREE man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You CANNOT conquer a FREE man; the most you can do is KILL him.” — Robert A. Heinlein

Many will ask, “So, just who is the Militia?”, there are several answers depending on just which militia they are referring. Under current Federal law;

U.S.C.: Title 10 › Subtitle A › Part I › Chapter 13 › § 311;
(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.

The reference to section 313 of title 32, refers in more detail to ages of “enlistment”, for the sake of disclosure here it is:

Title 32 › Chapter 3 › § 313;
(a) To be eligible for original enlistment in the National Guard, a person must be at least 17 years of age and under 45, or under 64 years of age and a former member of the Regular Army, Regular Navy, Regular Air Force, or Regular Marine Corps. To be eligible for reenlistment, a person must be under 64 years of age.
(b) To be eligible for appointment as an officer of the National Guard, a person must—
(1) be a citizen of the United States; and
(2) be at least 18 years of age and under 64.

Back to the militia, many opposed to private ownership of firearms will assert that the word ‘militia’ refers to the National Guard, in this case, they are mistaken. The founders referenced military units akin to our modern National Guard as “Select Militias”. When they used the term “militia” they were referencing the “unorganized militia” comprised of citizens, townsfolk, farmers and frontiersmen. Even current Federal law bears this out. § 311 continues and points out;

(b) The classes of the militia are—
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

This was not a new concept, even at the time of the founders, it traces its history back through the English Yeomanry back to the Fyrd of the Ancient Anglo-Saxons. The ‘Standing Army’ was a tool of monarchs and tyrants, “a boot on the neck of the people” (now there’s a familiar turn of phrase). The use of a permanent standing military did not take root in this country until the time between the Korean and the Vietnam Wars, prior to that time our ‘Regular Forces’ were de-mobilized at the end of hostilities. National Guard units were regularly called up in time of war until the Federal forces could be trained and filled out, this practice was discontinued due to horrendous casualties suffered by under-trained Guard units in Korea.

As a retired 24 year veteran of the US Army, my oath did NOT expire when I retired in ’92. I WILL NOT COMPLY with ANY requirement to register my arms, surrender my arms, get fingerprinted or any other ILLEGAL directive from 0bama. The US Constitution is what I swore to defend. MOLON LABE!!!
James Fontana

Obama is a tyrant and intends to lead by executive order and to hell with the constitution
voldemort

Take this premise. He is pushing his (to us) radical agenda so he can justify declaring martial law. I think he will tr y to convince the military that it is necessary to enforce it and there it goes. It would get very nasty very quickly. I hope he has the blue helmets come into this country then it is an invasion of the US by a foreign army.
