Is It Time to Abolish the 2nd Amendment or Strengthen Or Resolve to Retain It?

There are approximately 12 to 15 million illegal aliens in the United States. Our political leaders and advocates for these illegal immigrants claim that the job of rounding up and deporting them is just too big, so we might as well just grant them legal status and be done with it. If so, consider the following!

There are approximately 300 million firearms in the United States. Yet, many of the same political leaders and advocates who throw up their hands in defeat over illegal immigrants are more than willing to endeavor to collect all the firearms across this land. In fact, Barack Obama and Eric Holder couldn't keep track of about 2000 weapons which they authorized to be sold to Mexican Drug Cartels. They had the serial numbers, they knew the criminals who purchased the weapons, knew the date and time of the sales and still couldn't keep track of them. Pray tell, how do they expect to find and confiscate all those weapons even if it were prudent and Constitutional?!

The naked truth is that it is a matter of WILL, not ability. Regressives want to legalize all illegals because they are building an army to overwhelm law abiding American citizens in future elections. Quite truthfully, this is VOTER FRAUD on a massive scale. We ought to REQUIRE our leaders to come up with a solution to illegal immigration and the plan to deport those that are here. If they can't , those that resist should be driven from office!

Conversely, these same people who are relentless in their quest to strip us of our Second Amendment guarantee, do so, not to save lives, but to render law abiding Americans powerless against wholesale infringement of the other nine Amendments contained in the Bill of Rights! If you think their recent efforts to subvert the Constitution are brazen, imagine what they will do without concern that those whom they wish to enslave might not surrender willingly, and that they, in fact have the means to resist!

Everyone would like a society, free from fear. The fact is, government cannot provide it and has presided over some of the most fearful times in world history. As a side note, those fearful times were almost invariably preceeded by the confiscation of the people's means of self defense. Removing guns from society will not eliminate fear or threats. May I remind you that Timothy McVeigh accomplished murder on a scale fourteen times as devastating as Aurora, CO without the use of a firearm. Fear is part of life and as long as evil exists, fear will be present as well. What we must have is the ability to respond when a threat is imminent, regardless of its source. Firearms are a legitimate and capable means of dealing with real threats. A few law abiding citizens with concealed handguns may have averted the Aurora, CO tragedy completely or seriously minimized the damage. Such cowards as Holmes will think twice if they count the cost and understand that their intentions for their victims could very likely be their fate as well.

Those who advocate the abolition of firearms are either incredibly naive and trusting, or have sinister intentions. We must continue to resist and defeat them to retain our right to viable self defense tools against those who surely will NOT relinquish them if they are outlawed and confiscated.
