Politics
A time for caution
by Administrator on Jan.25, 2009, under Politics
This will be the first politically orientated editorial sponsored by Anartik.com for an issue dear to me. First and foremost I am a staunch constitutionalist and don’t believe the constitution is a living document subject to liberal judges/politicians manipulation based on the current political whim. What concerns me is the future of the second amendment under the current administration and congress. Fortunately the Supreme Court finally ruled that it is the people’s right to bear arms and the court is likely to maintain that balance for some time to come. However the Supreme Court left a gaping hole for liberals to eat into when they said gun ownership was subject to reasonable regulation. Now is a time to stand vigilant against assaults on our constitutional rights. While I am starting to have a little faith in Obama as being a reasonable man (although he has been noted as the most anti-gun president in the history of the US), with more pressing priorities, I certainly don’t trust the current congress or his vice president Joe Biden (despite his rants about nobody will get his shotguns) who was the author of the original assault weapons ban and an outspoken guns rights opponent. The liberals do have the passage of the much stricter and permanent assault weapons ban on the agenda and if they get it passed I am sure Obama will sign it. If you want to do what you can do to protect our constitutionally guaranteed rights visit NRA.org and join today. The NRA stands to support our rights and will keep you informed on present and future assaults by politicians and organizations.
My family starting coming to America in the 1600’s, before it was a country, and has done their part in defending this country and its constitution in every war and conflict since. I fired my first gun at the age of five and I have responsibly owned and used guns (including high capacity and assault) all my life. I am a gun owner, NRA member, IDPA member, concealed permit holder, sportsman, hunter, competitive shooter, outspoken gun rights advocate, supporter of stiff penalties for gun crimes and an Army veteran with 4 years as a Paratrooper in the Infantry. I will continue to do my part and I urge you to do what you can to protect our rights. It’s not just about gun ownership rights and the right to hunt or compete it’s about the right to defend yourself and your family.
