Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Absolutely awesome. Thank alla that wonderful people such as these veterans are still around to fight for gun rights.
When the lieberals proposed a handgun ban in 2005, I immediately went out and bought four.
At its core, we see here an argument between relativism and objective standards; those who contend everything is relative and those who contend there are immutable rights and laws.
The Democrat’s power base is made up of the takers. They live exclusively off the makers.
If the takers think the makers will sit by while they take away their second amendment rights, they had better learn what makes a maker, a maker.
This is a bridge too far for the makers and the takers had better rethink their abilities.
If not we’ll surely see what happens when the lazy try to take on the ambitious.
You see the ‘controller do gooder type’ has posited the question whether the 2nd Amendment is ‘relevant today’?
The correct response is do you accept the entirety of the Bill of Rights?
The veteran adroitly pointed out, who would be screaming the loudest, should one posit whether the 1st Amendment was still ‘relevant’?
The presenter for the ‘gun grabbers’ is cherry picking the rights they will observe. Sorry kiddo but that ain’t the way the Bill of Rights works you either accept them in their entirety or you don’t. If you are rights cherry picker you have to consider yourself ‘outside the Constitution’ who would do violence to the Bill of Rights. In short, tyranny never takes a holiday and in any society there is an ever present danger by would be usurpers.

Bravo Frickin’ Zulu to him.
They will NEVER get the guns out of American’s hands, regardless of how many leftist foreigners they immigrate to the country, open borders unguarded, or UN regulations that pass.
It’s impossible without a bloodbath, and even then my money is on the American’s to win.
Everyone who enlists into military service swears not to uphold the government, nor to defend the people, but to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” The people have a right to defend themselves and the military has a responsibility to maintain and defend the Constitution. Other than an a Constitutional amendment there is no way to bring about the “control” the government would have over the citizens right and ability to defend themselves. I don’t see it happening but although the military take orders from the President they are not bound to follow those orders if they break the conduct code of the military or violate the Constitution they have sworn to defend. There is no logical or ideological argument to be had here because it is not a matter of “relevance” but of natural right. People who would not lift a finger even against the most obvious tyranny should not be making decisions for those who will choose to fight and defend.
These leftists don’t know, or choose not to know, what ‘unalienable’ means. Unalienable rights cannot be surrendered, sold or transferred. Government doesn’t give them and government can’t take them away.
The Bill of Rights only recognizes that fact. It didn’t give those rights, they already existed. Man just had to have stones enough to take them.
When cowards show up to meetings they almost always bring the law and lawyers with them, (who happen to agree with their point of view) and hide behind its skirt. They are blinded to the truth of the “spirit” of the law and use the circular Hegelian Dialectic to try and run circles around those who are “uneducated” to their higher levels of thinking. Or so they think.
Self-generated and -imposed morality is always the root of these kind of people. They don’t speak truth, they make their own truth up as they go along, and demeaning and “shushing” those who disagree or stand in the way of their advancement of their superior intellect and ideas.
They should look at the videos and see how utterly ridiculous their arguments are and don’t even hear that what they have spoken to be true, as being so false. Then they backpedal and say they never meant to say what they actually said, that what they actually meant was something else, which turns into long-winded buffoonery.
The push-back will be very interesting. Better get ready!!
Right on!
Contrast the logic and eloquence of this spokesman to the yahoos that were confronting Ezra at his appearance at the INM protests!
An eloquent conservative. That fellow should be made president of the NRA, and they should send the lunatics that currently run the organization packing.
High lights the stupidity of liberals, they are always talking rubbish, most people ignore them.
Then they assume silence means agreement.
Keep pushing and crowding polite peoples space.
Hence their shock,horror& fear, when we finally lose patience with their stupidity.
It’s starting to look like the lead up to the 2010 midterms again. I love it when Constitutional loving Americans get fired up.
Looked up “Hegelian Dialectic” thanks Glalcierman.
I had no idea.
Now I have to wash the mental picture of Noam Chomsky out of my brain.
I agree.
In fact, there is little doubt that the framers understood perfectly well that the 1st Amendment could not be protected unless there was 2nd Amendment
Good for the veteran!
More good people need to stand up and speak up.
So there’s a message here for the ‘average’ Canadian: you have to show up up at their meeting, if you want to shut the F*&^%$s down.
Tweeting, facebooking, blogging, etc., doesn’t do it.
The Liberals, Obama and the Media have to push Gun Control now they sure as hell can’t talk about the Debt Ceiling, Spending or a frigin Budget for Christ’s Sake.
The extremist position is now to want things to stay the same. Anyone who stands in the way of their project is now a racist, an extremist or doesn’t care what happens to the poor innocent children.
The mistake we rightwingers make is in assuming those tyrants aren’t coming for the first ammendment once they disarm the lawabiding citizens. Make no mistake it’s not about the guns, liberals are on a thundering bender thinking that Obama will blaze the way so they can destroy western values and if they get to stomp the constitution during that bender that’s just icing on the pervs cake.
Sweet.
The American Constitution is under attack. The lefties, we’ll use that term for sake of argument, have been trying to make the Constitution irrelevant. Amongst the black community it is “white man’s” piece of paper. As for the second amendment, the left will use “mental stability” argument to nullify it. First from preventing people to purchase (need a doctor’s note for example), and secondly to label all owners as unstable and requiring “health checks” to ensure an owners capacity to own a fire arm. Name association with Nazi’s will become more prevalent. With Obama in his second term he has a blank check to do anything he, or his minions, want. Obama may of been a constitutional lawyer or what, but that was to learn how to undermine it. The next four years do not bode well.
Interesting tho, notice how Harper hasn’t had a meeting with Obama (other than G7 type summits), since Obama’s first visit? I think Harper got him pegged for who he is.
“The mistake we rightwingers make is …”
Nope. It’s much more fundamental than that.
The mistake we rightwingers make is sitting on our arses until it’s too late.
Old hippies would like to destroy the American/western way of life. Step by step. It’s called progressivism.
I blame the old hippies.
That veteran did his Nation proud. Hes still fighting the good fight.
By defending the Constitution against those who would void it , hes still fulfilling his oath. You need a million men like that, or Women. Tyranny never leaves , or sleeps it lies in wait like a plague. Dormant to destroy life, along with societies . Feed by fools thinking themselves above natural rights for the ‘little’ guy. Never for a moment do they think it applies to them. Because they figure they are on a higher plain.
I, as an NRA member, support the “Don’t give an Inch” to the Obama Lizards and I would argue that buying a 30 round Mag is my absolute right to protect my family against the possibility of a group attack. A 12-gauge automatic for home protection
The issue (law) should be that 30 round Mag’s couldn’t be legally carried outside the home without a special permit & a valid reason.
The communists will not stop at your home door! They want all guns. The second amendment RIGHT must protect citizens from liability lawsuits.
That is the ticket John Robertson! Thank-you. Patriots must speak up and know the facts. Little wimps like that Prof and his hangers on are indoctrinated, not educated. They hate being called on the carpet with irrefutable facts.
Bravo to the young vet in this video who took the time to educate himself and to speak up for Liberty. The 2nd amendment is a God given right, the Constitution protects God given rights because the founders put ‘one nation, under God’ in the Declaration; as an assumption.
There are other rights that the Constitution protects, such as the God given right to life.
Pfff. Bloodbath indeed. It’ll last a week, tops. What matters, ultimately, is which side the army takes—and when push comes to shove the enlisted men won’t fire on their own for Barack Hussein Obama. The generals will, for the most part, do the right thing when it becomes clear that their choices are a firing squad assembled by Obama and one assembled by American patriots.
After the footage of Obama and his Jezebel getting a taste of Targoviste justice makes it onto Youtube, not another shot will be fired. His followers will run like rabbits and the next anybody hears from the snivelling little cowards will be when they’re dragged out from under their mammies’ beds, whinging about their alleged rights.
All this should only worry you if it breaks your heart to put down rabid dogs. Maybe the mammies of Chicago’s notorious liberals and traitors will miss them. Nobody else will.
Next Christmas in Bucharest!
these anti- 2nd amendment creeps are typical leftoid urban neurotics who are so detached from red state realities and values that they consistently miss the deep hypocrisy in their own words and agendas. I think this fellow who questions the modern relevance of the 2nd amendment (a shop-worn thoroughly debunked talking point of the 80s Sarah Brady cult) was so out of the realms of reality (ignoring all the wars and rebellions against tyranny and genocides against unarmed populations throughout the modern world), that he actually believes the crap he espouses in the face of enormous self evident fact to the contrary. He is really so morbidly delusional believe there is no advantage to having the ability to resist government tyranny?
The other lot were just typical snotty craven leftards who lack any true knowledge/understanding of the issue and simplistically dote on feeling superior by calling those who disagree with them names and other degrading innuendo.
If this is all the constitution-loathing statist left culture has to offer intellectually – as reasoned argument/justification for debasing an inalienable right of their ideological enemies, they have lost the war of ideas and might as well just drop the pretense and get on with the physical war with red state America they have been avoiding for 50 years. Of course they must hire statist thugs with guns to kill those Americans who will not surrender their gun rights but this is another moral hypocrisy which escapes the neurotic left.
Kudos to the unnamed vet. Well spoken and bang on the money.!
..support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”…
Well..here you can see in plain view the Leftist mentality..slowly try to chip away at 2nd amendment with the things like equating gun ownership to Nazism. Jesus man, If my dad were there he would have freaked out to see that…having lived 4 years as a slave labourer in E Germany. These leftist politically correct apologist scumbags are just as prevalent here in Canada too folks..same morons that gave us the long gun registry.
Good on buddy for telling it like it is.
You simply cannot have freedom of speech without the true freedom to protect that very thing. It is truly too bad that we don’t have an amendment here in this country for same..or property rights for that matter.
As for Obama..I fully believe that man is the anti Christ.!~
Steakman, O walks in the spirit of the anti-Christ, but he is not the person.
He is not smart enough, smooth-talking enough, deceitful enough, evil enough, blasphemous enough,…so far. There are way too many people who can see through the man. Scripture says that in the end of days, even the Elect will turn away.
This man is but a shadow, a dark and murky one to say the least, but he is way too unlikeable and foolish with his words and with the words on the teleprompter to be the one. Obama is laying out the plan which may humble the United States a bit (or a lot), but the people have a strong spirit and deep roots. It will take more than the shine of the tin foil his is wearing and strutting about, pretending it is armour, to fool the liberty-loving patriots of the US of A.
Obama’s day is coming, unless he has a change of heart and turns himself in and declares that he has been a fraud and an illusion.
Scripture says that in the end of days, even the Elect will turn away.
No it doesn’t.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,and shall give great signs and wonders; so as to if it were possible, they shall lead astray the very elect.
Reminds me of the Norman Rockwell picture, one of the “4 Freedoms”. Here. http://03varvara.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/norman-rockwell-the-four-freedms-freedom-of-speech-1942-e1276912433282.jpg?w=1600&h=2000
..support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”…
Considering what the aims of the Marxists are I would suggest that Americans are fighting a war on two fronts, one of which is Islam and the other is domestic socialism that fundamentally wants to change the United States.
Agreed Ken, and there seems to be a common denominator (sympathizer) in front of the parade
Chicago already has municipal laws banning handguns.They don’t do anything,but embolden these people to go further. It is like (mentioned here a couple of days ago)the anti-smoking zealots and their campaign.
Actually, if the 2nd Amendment is literal and inalienable, one also has to note that citizens have right to bear arms within a ‘well-regulated militia’.
That’s the preface often left out by the pro-gun zealots. If one accepts the Amendment as an ‘eternal truth’, this preface must be taken into account as well, not skirted over as so many of you like to do.
In that context, the 2nd Amendment doesn’t give everyone at anytime to bear any kind of arms they like at all – if we were to be honest with ourselves.
It’s disingenuous – to say the least – to pretend otherwise.
For “joe conservative”:
“Arms in the hands of citizens may be used at individual discretion in private self defense.”
– John Adams
“I ask sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people except for a few politicians.”
– George Mason (father of the Bill of Rights and The Virginia Declaration of Rights)
But then, what would “they” know?
Hey Chris
You seem to have a reading comprehension problem, so I’ll transcribe the 2nd Amendment here:
“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.”
Now you can pussyfoot around and quote whoever you like.
But if you guys want to treat the Constitution as sacred, that’s what it says.
It really is time to man up and start taking your rights as a citizen seriously.
Joe:
I took an oath to uphold the Constitution.
Is that sufficient?
Hey joe, it’s ‘unalienable’.
Since you have trouble with definitions, look up the definition of a militia at the time of the writing.
Also look up the definition of ‘people’, bearing in mind these are ‘individual’ rights.
If your definition were correct, the right to bear arms belongs to the government, not the people. Totally nonsensical.
Joe is the poster boy of sophistry…..(a clever unsound argument)…in his attempt to interpret the 2nd Ammendment….already ruled on by no less than the USSC.
The Federalist Papers, and correspondence by the drafters of the Bill Of Rights are unambiguous about the meaning.
Farewell thy suite is cold…….
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State” is a preamble to the statement of right, and not a condition. A condition is preceded by words eg: “except that”, which clearly declare it is a condition.
A militia is the people armed and ready to respond, such as in Switzerland.
The Great English Bill explained: http://www.conspiracy-cafe.com/apps/blog/show/7074713
As other commenters have already noted, the SCOTUS has ruled that the 2nd Amendment is an individual right. The “well ordered militia” referred to in the 2nd Amendment consists of all able bodied members of the population.
As a member of the NRA I fully support their position to not give an inch on this issue. I’ve donated money to their political action fund before and will do so again as the US is currently the only country with a constitutional right to keep and bear arms. My individual donations to the cause can’t match those of the arch-totalitarian Soros, but there are tens of millions of people that feel like I do and only one of him. If the US goes down, then the UN dictatorship will take over the world. A slave is disarmed and a freeman is armed. I have no desire to become a slave.
A line in the sand has been drawn and if Obozo and his family want to go out like Mussolini, that’s fine with me. I for one, will never give up my guns and never registered them under the totalitarian police state regime that was present in Canada before PMSH. While my view may be a minority in Canada (although curiously almost 100% of gun owners I know somehow “forgot” about most of the guns they owned when the gun registry was in existence) there are many red states where my view on gun rights is the norm. If Obozo wants a fight, he’ll get one. He definitely can’t count on the military and there are far too many TSA, BATF and “homeland security” goons and a cull is desperately needed.
If some with to really did into history. Most cannons back in the day were private owned. Not gov.
Yeah, bet that will drive the libs nutty.
Really loved how in the video the veteran said he’d fought to keep America safe, preserve its freedoms…and also to maybe secure its oil and gas, whatever…
Basically admitting the war in Iraq was for oil and not to save the US from the “smoking gun could be a mushroom cloud” invented propaganda bullcrap…
LOL!
ROTFLMAO!
