The beginning of the end of the Constitution and
'freedom of speech". If this goes
through, [and it very well could, if not enough people know about it]. I checked
the Federal Register and this IS true. [click link in red and check it out yourself]. This guy will
do anything he can to take away your guns and/or your
freedom.
WHAT CONSTITUTION?
Obama Plans To Muzzle Gun-Related Speech
The foreign-raised President of the United States—who
never set foot on the U.S. mainland until he was an adult—has proven throughout
his rogue administration that he has no respect at all for the Constitution.
He’s proving it yet again with a dual attack on both the First and Second
Amendments, with an attempt to twist ITAR (International Traffic in Arms
Regulations) regulations to ban online speech about firearms, claiming that
information posted online is “exporting” data.
Even as news reports have been highlighting the gun control provisions of the Administration’s “Unified Agenda” of regulatory objectives (see accompanying story), the Obama State Department has been quietly moving ahead with a proposal that could censor online speech related to firearms. This latest regulatory assault, published in the June 3 issue of the Federal Register, is as much an affront to the First Amendment as it is to the Second. Your action is urgently needed to ensure that online blogs, videos, and web forums devoted to the technical aspects of firearms and ammunition do not become subject to prior review by State Department bureaucrats before they can be published………With the new proposal published on June 3, the State Department claims to be “clarifying” the rules concerning “technical data” posted online or otherwise “released” into the “public domain.” To the contrary, however, the proposal would institute a massive new prior restraint on free speech. This is because all such releases would require the “authorization” of the government before they occurred. The cumbersome and time-consuming process of obtaining such authorizations, moreover, would make online communication about certain technical aspects of firearms and ammunition essentially impossible.Penalties for violations are severe and for each violation could include up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $1 million. Civil penalties can also be assessed.Each unauthorized “export,” including to subsequent countries or foreign nationals, is also treated as a separate violation.
Get active. Be heard. Defend liberty.
