Machine Gun Charges Against Sheriff Recall Earlier Incidents and ‘Only Ones’ Elitism
But whether the top cops are innocent or guilty of charges is beside the real point gun owners should be concerned with. The militarization of police is what opens the door to exclusivity and enables corruption. And you’d better believe the officials and the deputies/officers they command would arrest any of us if they found us non-compliant with a “gun law.” The “Only Ones” hypocrisy reeks. [More]
Nice work if you can get it. The problem is, without a badge, you can’t, and therein lies the crux of police as “Only Ones.”
Point/Counterpoint
Dave, like so many others you are in error concerning Heller’s statement on the M-16. Scalia wrote that anyone who say’s M-16s and the like can be banned have de facto separated and nullified the prefatory clause “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state,” from the operative “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
“It may be objected that if weapons that are most useful
in military service—M-16 rifles and the like—may be
banned, then the Second Amendment right is completely

Government Has Known from the Start There is a Right to Own Machineguns
“You see, if we made a statute absolutely forbidding any human being to have a machine gun, you might say there is some constitutional question involved.” [More]
Now, what are all those “staunch supporters of the Second Amendment” in Congress going to do about it?

What else would we expect oath-breaking violence monopolist totalitarians to say?
Funny, how few “staunch supporters of the Second Amendment” in Congress have ever tried to do anything about that when their party held the majority…

We’re the Only Ones Supported Enough
“The community is very supportive and I am grateful they took the time to educate themselves on the process of how obtaining these firearms takes place,” Wendt told The Daily Beast in a Tuesday text message, confirming the reinstatement and the stipulation. “I wish journalists would do the same and realize this is an attack on the 2nd amendment and not just about me.” [More]
I’ll bite. If it’s about the Second Amendment, could I do it?
