The proposed 2008 Democrat Platform Plankon the Second Amendment is as honest as Al Gore inventing the Internet,  John Kerry crawling through the leaves with his double-barreled shotgun,  Hillary Rodham Clinton duck hunting, Hillary and Chelsea dodging sniper fire in Bosnia, and Barack Obama saying he didn’t see the questionnaire about the handgun ban that had his handwriting on it.  The text of the proposed 2008 Democrat plank reads as follows:

“We recognize that the right to bear arms is an important part of the American tradition, and we will preserve Americans’ continued Second Amendment right to own and use firearms. We believe that the right to own firearms is subject to reasonable regulation, but we know that what works in Chicago may not work in Cheyenne. We can work together to enact and enforce common-sense laws and improvements, like closing the gun show loophole, improving our background check system and reinstating the assault weapons ban, so that guns do not fall into the hands of terrorists or criminals. Acting responsibly and with respect for differing views on this issue, we can both protect the constitutional right to bear arms and keep our communities and our children safe.”

Item:  “…what works in Chicago may not work in Cheyenne” is liberal code for “We’re going to pass the most draconian laws we possibly can where our political machine is the strongest.  We’ll round up the rest of the bitter, clingy hicks, rubes and rednecks later, when we have an iron grip on power.”  (See my post: “Chicago gang violence shows gun law failure,” 04-24-08, Category: Gun Law Failures, this site, for what doesn’t seem to work in Chicago.)

Item: “…closing the gun show loophole…” is code for “regulating gun shows out of existence, so that members of the ‘Community of People Who Own Guns’ will be less likely to get together to oppose our Socialist Agenda.”

Item: “…improving our background check system” means the “registration of all gun sales in the country in preparation for eventual confiscation of civilian firearms.”

Item: “…Reinstating the assault weapons ban…” is Liberal code for “banning every semi-automatic firearm in the country with a magazine well.”

Democrat support of the Second Amendment reminds me of the guy who built a boat without a bottom, because “The bottom doesn’t show, anyway.”  Their “support” is all for show.  The proposed Democrat Platform, if implemented,  would render the Second Amendment meaningless.

Washington D.C., in spite of the Heller Decision, still classifies semi-auto firearms as “machine guns.”  See previous post: “New D.C. gun regulations seem to flout Supreme Court decision,” 07-17-08, Category: Courts, this website. 

Heller also affirmed that the Second Amendment protects firearms in common use for lawful purposes.  Semi-auto firearms are extremely common and are used for hunting, target shooting, and self-defense, in addition to their obvious utility in preparing young people for service in the police and the military.

The Democrats try and try to “appear” sympathetic to the Bill of Rights, but their stands on “The Fairness Doctrine” and the Second Amendment reveal their willingness to do anything to gain power and keep it.  The Democrats want to suppress free speech and disarm the American People.  They have published their proposed agenda.  It is up to the freedom-loving people of America to act politically in this election year to make sure that the Dems do not have a chance to implement their platform.

Vote Republican or lose your legal right to own a gun.

    The last time the Democrats tried to ban guns, not let blacks have them, the 14th Amendment was passed forcing the second amendment on the states. So then the Democrats formed their terrorist enforcement wing, the KKK to try and deny the blacks the right to vote. That all came to an end when the Democrat fillibuster was finally defeated in 1964 and the Civil Rights act passed the U.S. Congress. Sheets Byrd led the filibuster.

    But to Democrats, the U.S. Constitution is not something to protect, as their oath says, but something to be subverted, as their actions say.
