The Shot Heard ‘Round the World was a gunshot fired upon a
British commander in charge of troops at the Battles of Lexington and Concord on
April 19, 1775 when the British troops were ordered to confiscate and/or
destroy the guns and munitions within the towns of Lexington, Concord, Lincoln,
Arlington and Cambridge. It was about gun control.
THE COLONISTS NEVER TOOK UP ARMS AGAINST THEIR GOVERNMENT
UNTIL KING GEORGE TRIED TO DISARM THEM.
This was the day of the famous ride of Paul Revere and William
Dawes to warn the local town’s folk that King George’s troops were on the way
to what was supposed to be a surprise visit to Concord to take charge of their
munitions and get their guns.
1775 Colonists had been upset about many things that the
British had done, to the point of writing about it, refusing to pay taxes,
refusing to house British troops, etc. But never before had town’s people
actually pointed a gun at a British soldier and fired upon them until they came
for their guns.
The famous Paul Revere ride was not to warn that the British
were coming to start a war. It was to warn local colonists that the British
were on the way to confiscate their guns; a truth that the Left has never been
comfortable dealing with.
I attended Medford, Oregon’s public school system my entire
twelve years and was lied to about this half-truth of guns and war. Wars are
never started in order to generally conduct a war. Wars are made of battles
over real estate, resources and human rights. Without individual battles, there
would be no war. Each battle has a well-defined objective. This is nothing new
or modern. It has always been true from the beginning of recorded history. Even
The Bible reveals God using well defined objectives when he championed the Jews.
People who write modern history books have been engaging in
rewriting History’s impetus since long before most of us have been on this
planet. They serve up their versions of history to young minds instead of
facts.
To be clear,
Many are predicting that if Obama’s administration exercises
an executive order affecting gun ownership, which of course would be un
Constitutional, that we would then be living under a rogue government;
especially if it results in confiscatory action at local levels nationwide.
The test for confiscating merchandise legally owned by
citizens, whether firearms or otherwise, is protected under local, state and
federal laws as well as being guaranteed by the Fourth Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution. What a confiscatory executive order would do from Obama is to pit
local and state law makers and law enforcement agencies against local citizens
and The Federal Government.
In other words;
-Federal Marshals will have to contend with State Police in
Texas and other states who will not stand for anybody taking guns out of
people’s homes; federal or otherwise.
-Federal agents will be attempting to employ state agencies
to do their dirty work for them.
-Local Police will have to contend with calls of 911 from
citizens who are calling for help when someone claiming to be from “The
Government” shows up on their door step to confiscate firearms.
-Citizens will generally not know which law enforcement
agencies are supporting The Rule of Law, and which are ignoring the US
Constitution. Therefore, they will generally not trust any of them in most
cases.
Thus, most firearms will be “non-existent”; no longer being suspended
from gun racks in the back window of pickups—more often than not, being “lost”,
“stolen”, “sold” or just claimed to “never have been in existence at this
address.” Square impressions in the rug will be the only evidence that a gun
safe was ever in the house.
To avoid all of this, it will be attempted to over price ammunition
with another illegal tax. This would be illegal because it too would be an
infringement of the Second Amendment. They will first find “softer more elegant
ways” to reduce the number of guns available publicly.
2013. This current iteration might be mostly a test to see
public reaction. Notice how it is occurring during this Obama 2nd
term, which in itself is a time period in America’s history more unique than
any other presidential term.
As angry as gun theft by one’s own government might make
armed citizens now, I predict that it will never come to that because there are
too many armed citizens. We could not stop a concerted effort with force, but
public opinion is a hard thing to keep bolstered when the populace has firsthand
knowledge of actual deaths caused by these seizures. One can only hide so much
behind the miscreants called journalists today.
One thing is certain, having armed federal agents/soldiers
show up on door steps to grab our guns is not something that the currently
armed America is ready for, nor which Obama is stupid enough to attempt. They
will try it in other ways.
One of those ways will be to only illegalize the “most
dangerous” weapons. Then, after the RINO Republicans sign on to that bill,
they’ll go for the next level after this first grab doesn’t work. They will
whittle our ownership rights down one level at a time. They have been doing
this for many years. It didn’t just start with the most recent questionable
school shooting. Notice, by the way, when these most recent school and theater
shootings commenced. Mighty convenient for the Left, is it not?
Germany was handled that way. England was handled that way. And
now, a few numbers of the pop culture citizens of both these countries are
beginning to find it strange that Americans still go out to freely hunt deer or
feel that they have to protect themselves with personal “police style” weapons,
because Germans and UK citizens are becoming somewhat used to socialism; Just
like we are intended to after a while.
And to those who are preparing for physical war with the
government, I need to remind you of the single major difference between 2013
and 1775. The government these days is exponentially better armed than the
citizen.
