Conservative American,
Yesterday marked the first day of the 113th Congress. It also marked the beginning of Big Government’s renewed assault on the Bill of Rights, specifically the Second Amendment and the right to “keep and bear arms.”
Now that the the new Congress has convened, we know that Sen. Diane Feinstein is dangerously close to following through with her December promise to push her unconstitutional assault weapons ban.
Further, if Sen. Harry Reid gets his filibuster “rule change” it will mean that the Senate can pass their gun-control bills with only 51 votes, ignoring their pro-Second Amendment members!
This means that the all of the gun-grabber’s desirable bans on semiautomatics, certain magazines, gun shows (all, according to Obama, being “loopholes”), and private gun sales (that is, sales from person-to-person without a dealer) would be subject to a vote of 51, rather than the 2/3 majority! The Feinstein Ban is only the beginning!
Gun control of any kinds must not happen in 2013 – or, ever – so we have got to take action!
Take Action and DEMAND CONGRESS to REFUSE any and all attempts to DISARM AMERICANS through Diane Feinstein’s coming “Assault Weapons Ban” or any other gun control bill! Blast Faxes Now!
In addition to the anti-gun agenda in Congress, the Executive is also poised to take away our rights.
Barack Obama told Meet the Press this week that he is committed to not let the opportunity for increased gun-control “drift away” after people begin to shift their attention away from December’s Connecticut shooting, the event that gun-grabbing politicians have been using to justify their tyrannical ends. He said,
“The question then becomes whether we are actually shook up enough by what happened [in Sandy Hook] that it does not just become another one of these routine episodes where it gets a lot of attention for a couple of weeks and then it drifts away… It certainly won’t feel like that to me. This is something that, you know, that was the worst day of my presidency. And it’s not something that I want to see repeated.”
Obama also committed to a one-year timeframe, saying, “I’d like to get it done in the first year. I will put forward a very specific proposal based on the recommendations that Joe Biden’s task force is putting together as we speak. And so this is not something that I will be putting off.”
Hoping to convince the American people to befriend disarmament, Obama claims that dismantling the Second Amendment will make schoolchildren safer. We know he truly doesn’t believe such nonsense – otherwise he’d have all of his personal bodyguards disarmed!
On top of voicing his support for the Feinstein Ban (and other attempts to remove guns from the homes of law-abiding Americans), Barack Obama has a “hidden” gun-control agenda that he may accomplish through the ATF.
According to Conservative Action Alerts contributor Jim Kouri, the Obama Administration may “order the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to take the classification step. Some gun-grabbers view the designation of Street Sweeper shotguns as Title 2 firearms during the Clinton administration as precedent for such a move.”
Obama will never disarm his protectors, yet he wants to disarm the American People from protecting themselves. What dangerous, evil, and unconstitutional hypocrisy!
Take Action and DEMAND CONGRESS to REFUSE any and all attempts to DISARM AMERICANS through Diane Feinstein’s coming “Assault Weapons Ban” or any other gun control bill! Blast Faxes Now!
Feinstein Renews Weapons Ban:
Right now, Washington’s anti-gun politicians are using December’s Sandy Hook tragedy as an impetus to “legally” disarm Americans and remove our God-given rights!
California’s Diane Feinstein – author of the 1994 Assault Weapons – has long been an enemy of gun-owners and the right to self-defense, an American principle. Senator Feinstein, keeping in line with Rahm Emanuel’s rule of thumb to “never waste a crisis,” almost immediately began calling for increased gun control after the terrible event in at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut.
Feinstein expressly stated that she will introduce sweeping gun control legislation the first day the 113th Congress is assembled. She said,
“On the first day of the new Congress, I intend to introduce a bill stopping the sale, transfer, importation and manufacturing of assault weapons as well as large ammunition magazines, strips and drums that hold more than 10 rounds.”
She also added that she has already been “gathering support” for such legislation in both the House and the Senate.
What this means is that a weapons ban could be a cold, hard fact as soon as January – the new Congress begins in only a matter of days!
Remember, in 1994 it only took one day for Congress and President Clinton to “legally” remove guns from the hands and homes of law-abiding Americans!
Take Action and DEMAND CONGRESS to REFUSE any and all attempts to DISARM AMERICANS through Diane Feinstein’s coming “Assault Weapons Ban” or any other gun control bill! Blast Faxes Now!
Weapons Ban Support:
Feinstein’s resuscitation of her former assault weapons ban has wide support – from Democrats and even from a Republican! Also, just so you are aware, Feinstein didn’t scratch this bill up in response to the Connecticut shooting; no, she has been working on it for over a year waiting for the opportune time to ram it through!
Senator Frank Lautenberg, as we can expect, is “optimistic” about a Feinstein-led Assault Weapons Ban, saying, “I think we can get something done.” Schumer, like Feinstein, wants to see weapons banned, clip-sizes limited, and more paperwork required to purchase guns.
“The purpose of this bill is to get the weapons of war off the streets of our cities.” – Senator Feinstein
Democrat Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York believes that the nation will support stronger gun-control, especially if Barack Obama “exploits” what happened in Sandy Hook. The New York Rep. said on MSNBC that “These incidents, these horrible, horrible incidents … are happening more frequently, and they will continue to happen more and more frequently until someone with the bully pulpit – and that means the president – takes leadership and pushes Congress.”
Taken “leadership,” Obama already has.
Obama wasted no time in voicing his strong, “active” support for national legislation curbing gun-ownership. It is likely, now that Obama is approaching his final term that he will more vehemently assert gun-control. White House spokesperson Jay Carney has already suggested that the president will support gun-control efforts – in addition to Feinstein’s – including laws to eliminate what he referred to as the ‘gun show loophole’ relating to paperwork and high-capacity magazine sales.
And there has been support even from the GOP! Anti-gun RINO Scott Brown supports federal legislation to ban assault weapons. Though Brown’s term as a Senator has ended since December, his voice is proof that there are “cracks” in the GOP’s defense of private firearms. How many more RINOs will surface to support Feinstein’s up-and-coming bill?
We must make our voices heard and tell Congress to reject the coming Feinstein Weapons Ban, and any other piece of legislation that would destroy the Second Amendment!

The Fruit of Propaganda:
It is a sad fact that America today is divided over the right to self-defense.
Rather than call into question the environment in which the shooting took place – a gun-free zone, where self-defense is prohibited – so many mindlessly flock to liberal slogans like “less guns equals less violence.”
A White House petition demanding “immediate” gun control was created and gathered over 80,000 signatures in less than a day, while the petition only needed 25,000 to be seriously considered. The petition now holds over 194,000 names.
More than this, some of the anti-gun rhetoric being asserted by some are violent – even outright threats. Facebook posts, blogs, and Twitter have been used to carry messages like “murder every NRA member” or “get every member of the NRA to stand in a circle, aim & shoot!” Some people have also called for the murder of the NRA’s president, David Keene.
This is all to say the some of our fellow Americans would happily support more gun control – they already are organizing and, as we have seen, both active and vocal.
Folks like these are calling and writing their Senator asking for their neighbors to be disarmed through increased gun control. These individuals are pushing the Feinsteins, Bloombergs, and RINOs like Scott Brown, to support state and federal bans on assault weapons.
Now is the time for patriotic Americans to fight this liberal, anti-gun rhetoric and speak out! We must make sure that Senate and Representative Offices are getting twice or three times as many calls, letters, and faxes against gun control as they are for it.

What has happened to the Bill of Rights?
The Second Amendment is a right, and “laws” that oppose it are unlawful and dangerous. There is no other way to say it.
Our founders were able to declare independence from the King England only because they were armed with modern weaponry.
Our Constitution – the Supreme Law of the Land – included the Second Amendment provision to “keep and bear arms” to ensure that the new American government could not disarm the people.
The right to bear arms is an essential part of liberty and a free society. George Washington said that firearms “are the people’s liberty’s teeth;” and Jefferson stated, “Those who hammer their guns into plows will plow for those who do not.”
Our forefathers knew the importance of an armed citizenry as a check against big government and tyranny. Further, they knew that individuals should always be free to protect themselves, their family, and their property. That’s why they protected it in law.
Those who were armed were not considered offensive, violent, or malevolent in any way – in fact, early Americans considered defense to be a God-given right to secure households and keep evil at bay in society. Weapons were not held for aggression, but to resist aggression!
Right now there is a multitude of ideological aggressors wanting to destroy the Second Amendment by banning certain weapons, limiting access to ammunition, and increasing the bureaucratic “paperwork” required to purchase guns.
These aggressors are in the Congress and the Whitehouse, and they must be stopped.

The Second Amendment must never be Limited:
One of the arguments for the reinstatement of an Assault Weapons Ban is that it only restricts “some” weapons, namely those of a military-grade, while leaving other weapons unaffected. Michael Bloomberg and Diane Feinstein claims they only are attack so-called “weapons of war.”
Here is the problem… the Second Amendment protects such weapons, while anti-gunners want to see them “off the streets of our cities.”
You see, anti-gun politicians don’t understand (or care about) the purpose of the Second Amendment. Thomas Mullen of the Washington Times comments:
“Having weapons of war on the streets is the whole point of the 2nd Amendment. The amendment wasn’t drafted to ensure that Americans could hunt. It wasn’t drafted so that Americans could protect themselves, although the natural right to defend one’s life was never as compromised as it is in the modern gun control era.
They weren’t out to confiscate hunting rifles, ‘fer squirrels and sech,’ either. They intended to confiscate a store of arms that would outfit the average colonist with weapons roughly equivalent to the average British infantryman.
That’s why the 2nd Amendment was written, to ensure that the government’s army would never have superior firepower to the people.”
Yes, the Second Amendment protects all weapons, even so-called “weapons of war.” Again, this is not controversial – it is simply what the founders gave us to preserve our free society.
“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.” – Second Amendment.
What has happened to America? Political Correctness – which is quite incorrect – is costing us our freedoms. Bad utopian ideas that suggest society can abolish violence, aggression, and death by simply removing guns is an argument even child wouldn’t believe – yet so many go along with this liberal nonsense and are willing to toss their and their neighbors’ rights away!
It’s time to fight the liberal, anti-gun propaganda and demand Congress to defend, not destroy, our right to bear arms!
