Assault On The Constitution
Part Three: The Right To Bear Arms

There is nothing unclear about the 25 words of the Second Amendment. It says "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Pretty simple, "...shall not be infringed." Like all of The Constitution, written so the average U.S. citizen could read and understand it.

Because of gradual changes in the meaning of words, some now believe that the word "militia" applies only to  an Army sustained by the government. Obviously that was not the definition on March 4, 1789, when the Bill of Rights was adopted. Americans had witnessed Washington's defeat of the British, by commanding a ragtag band of patriots with their own muskets, and volunteer soldiers formed into regiments in various states. Washington had to work tirelessly to get Congress to fund payment to his citizen soldiers.

Most anti-gun people somehow believe that if they legally banned all guns it would stop gun crimes. With an estimated 100 million privately owned guns in America, that would be impossible to achieve.  Mad men shoot up college campuses, work places of every description, shopping malls, darkened theaters and on and on, The gun haters immediately call for an outright ban or stricter regulations on guns. But people who mean to do harm with their guns would never surrender their weapons.Why would criminals, or madmen, obey that law and no others?

The anti-gun crowd has not been successful at changing the Constitution, largely because it would require two-thirds of both houses of Congress or two thirds of all state legislatures calling for a Constitutional Convention. After proposing an amendment, three-fourths of all states must then ratify the amendment.

But the argument over the word 'militia' is now rarely held, There is another way to trump The Constitution and the gun grabbers have latched on. Article VI of The Constitution says "all treaties made or which shall be made, under the authority of the United states, shall be the supreme law of the land, and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding." Bingo! Adopt the UN Small Arms Treaty and the 2nd Amendment is gone.

Secretary of  State Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama continue to work hand-in-glove with the UN to pass the "Programme of Action Against Small Arms" Treaty.

Patriotic Americans cannot permit the Administration to sneak this one by.

Native Americans here in the Western States used to call the coyote "the Trickster". We have coyotes in the White House. Watch them closely.
