Is The Second Amendment A ‘Second-Class Right’?
Once upon a time, I was willing to entertain the idea of passing gun control laws. I’d heard all the media reports, and it sounded like it made sense. If people couldn’t get guns, they couldn’t do bad things with guns.
Well, no. I know better now, but back then I was willing to buy into it.
What changed me was a line from a liberal television show. The show was The West Wing, and a character commented on liberals thinking there are only nine amendments to the Bill of Rights.
That made me think and, as a result, I changed my opinion on guns completely.
The truth is, the Second Amendment is probably the most important part of our Constitution. It’s the insurance policy for the entire republic. But has it become a “second-class right?” Well, some sure think so.

A specter is haunting the Supreme Court — disrespect for the Second Amendment. Perhaps you haven’t realized that the Supreme Court’s disinclination to expand on its landmark 2008 decision creating an individual right to gun ownership means that the justices are treating the Second Amendment as a “second-class right.” A “watered-down right.” A “disfavored right.”

Jaw dropping Alteration Seen on Map in New Muslim Congresswoman’s Office By C. Douglas Golden January 4, 2019
Compared to Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rep. Rashida Tlaib hasn’t received as much attention. Both became the first two Muslim congresswomen to take office on Thursday, but Rep. Omar has a much longer history of controversy, particularly given anti-Semitic tweets and support for the BDS movement.
However, on moving-in day, Rep. Tlaib — or someone in her office — certainly managed to do a bit of catch-up work.
In a picture posted by BuzzFeed News’ Hannah Allam, a world map in the Michigan Democrat’s office shows Israel covered over with a post-it note saying “Palestine” and an arrow pointing to the country.
“Someone has already made a slight alteration to the map that hangs in Rashida Tlaib’s new congressional office,” Allam, who covers Muslim life in America, said in her tweet.

Why I Do NOT Vote
I do vote. Or maybe I should say I HAVE VOTED. But below is an article by T. David Gordon, a Christian professor at Grove City College, who does NOT vote. He certainly makes a very interesting case for the futility of doing what you think is really the only way to change things. In addition, if you read this, you will learn some thought-provoking things about how things work in our government and why so many things are the way they are. So here it is:

So...the "people" decided they just had to elect a couple of "MUSLIM" women to the House of Reps. And.. the moment one of them is sworn in (on the koran) she declares publicly that she is going to IMPEACH President Trump, Calling him "THE MOTHERF**KER"....Nice start for your political career .. Rep. Rashida Tlaib....This is the NEW CONGRESS for 2019 ???
Rep. Rashida Tlaib Profanely Promised To Impeach Trump. She’s Not Sorry.Amy B Wang Jan.4th 2019
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) made history Thursday afternoon for being the first Palestinian American woman sworn into Congress.
Hours later, she made headlines for swearing in a bar — in comments that would continue to reverberate in Washington the next day.
At a reception Thursday night for the progressive group MoveOn.org, Tlaib vowed that the new Democrat-controlled House would be focusing on ousting President Trump from office.
“Don’t you ever, ever, let anybody take away your roots, your culture, who you are. Ever,” Tlaib told the crowd in the packed space. “Because when you [hang onto those things], people love you and you win. And when your son looks at you and says, ‘Mama, look. You won. Bullies don’t win.'
“And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t,’ because we’re gonna go in there and we’re gonna impeach the motherf-----.
AND THEN WHAT RASHIDA..?? After the "MOTHERF**KER" is impeached, will you impose "Sharia law" and STONE him or BEHEAD him..??

TRUMP: Fulfilling campaign promises....
Rush Limbaugh Told This Jaw Dropping Truth About Barack Obama’s New World Order
Donald Trump set out to fulfill his campaign promise to Make America Great Again.
And Rush Limbaugh just revealed the one truth about Obama and the new world order that left everyone speechless.
On a recent broadcast, Limbaugh discussed the panic that shot through the corridors of power in Washington when President Trump announced he would withdraw U.S. troops from Syria.
During the campaign, Trump pledged to put America first and end the endless nation-building wars that put the globalist agenda ahead of American interests.
Chief among them was Obama’s decision to deploy two thousand U.S. troops to Syria.
Trump’s critics whined that the President was abandoning America’s role as leader of the “liberal world order” set up after World War 2.
So Trump announced right before Christmas that he was ending Barack Obama’s misguided war in Syria.
Border Crisis So Bad Coast Guard Now Being Deployed into Desert

The Coast Guard is being deployed 200 miles inland? The Coast Guard?
That's how bad this border crisis is. And the Coast Guard isn't there to deal with regular illegals. It's there to deal with sick, contagious illegals. Conservatives want immigrants in America, but we want them legal and safe, not illegal and a danger to public health. That's not racist. It's responsible.

World’s First Lesbian Bishop Calls for Church to Remove Crosses, to Install Muslim Prayer Space
The Bishop of Stockholm has proposed a church in her diocese remove all signs of the cross and put down markings showing the direction to Mecca for the benefit of Muslim worshippers.
Eva Brunne, who was made the world’s first openly lesbian bishop by the church of Sweden in 2009, and has a young son with her wife and fellow lesbian priest Gunilla Linden, made the suggestion to make those of other faiths more welcome.
The church targeted is the Seamen’s mission church in Stockholm’s eastern dockyards. The Bishop held a meeting there this year and challenged the priest to explain what he’d do if a ship’s crew came into port who weren’t Christian but wanted to pray.
Calling Muslim guests to the church “angels“, the Bishop later took to her official blog to explain that removing Christian symbols from the church and preparing the building for Muslim prayer doesn’t make a priest any less a defender of the faith......REALLY..?

The Caravan Is About To Deliver President Trump Awful News
States earlier this year, may be back for round two in 2019.
This second caravan is reported to be much stronger and much larger than the first one.
States earlier this year, may be back for round two in 2019.
The L.A. Times reports, “Another migrant caravan — this one estimated at 15,000 people — is preparing to leave Honduras on Jan. 15.”
“Meanwhile, thousands of Central American migrants from a caravan that left Honduras in October remain stranded at the U.S.-Mexico border and languishing in crowded Tijuana shelters while they wait out a lengthy process to file asylum requests with the United States,” the Times adds.
And with many members of the first caravan still at or near the border, its numbers may only grow in size as it nears the U.S.-Mexican border.
Some initial reports about this new caravan suggest it may take a different approach to the first one however.
Whereas the first caravan moved up through Central America before beelining to the border at Tijuana — near California — this new caravan may stick around in Mexico.
“They will stay in the south of Mexico in Chiapas and Oaxaca. Their aim is to request work there,” one of the caravan organizers told the L.A. Times.

Trump urges Romney to be a team player hours after scathing op-ed By John Wagner
President Trump fired back at incoming senator Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on Wednesday, urging him to be a “TEAM player” hours after the publication of a scathing op-ed in which Romney said Trump has not risen to the job.
Romney also drew flak from Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the Republican National Committee — and Romney’s niece.
“Would much prefer that Mitt focus on Border Security and so many other things where he can be helpful,” Trump said in a tweet. “I won big, and he didn’t. He should be happy for all Republicans. Be a TEAM
player...WIN !
“Like other Big Government Republicans who never liked Reagan, Mitt Romney wants to signal how virtuous he is in comparison to the President,” Rand said in a Twitter post. “Well, I’m most concerned and pleased with the actual conservative reform agenda @realDonaldTrump has achieved.”

Cuomo:...Cause I'm mad at Trump...That's why
New York Governor Pardons Murderers Because… Trump
Kyle S. Reyes | Jan 1, 2019
Nothing like ending 2018 with a bang.
Yesterday, New York Governor Cuomo granted clemency to 29 convicts. Among them were four who were serving long sentences for murder.
Why? Because he seemingly wanted to send a message to President Trump.
In total, 22 inmates were pardoned. Nine more had sentences commuted. Four of those were sentences for murder and three were for armed robbery.
Among those who were given pardons were several immigrants who were facing possible deportation. Now they can be with their families, the governor said.
“These actions will help keep immigrant families together and take a critical step toward a more just, more fair and more compassionate New York.”
That’s right. The governor who just freed those implicated in the deaths of others is talking about keeping families together.
Let’s dive a little deeper into that.
49-year-olds Alphonso Riley-James and Roy Bolus have each served 30 years of their life sentences. They were part of a group involved in a drug deal in Albany that fell apart and left two men dead. That’s a couple of families that are no longer together… because their loved ones are dead.
But the merciful and loving governor pointed out that they were good boys in prison and felt bad about things.
Then there were two other convicted killers who Cuomo says he took pity on because they were crime victims themselves.
When Dennis Woodbine was 19, he was chasing a group of young men who had stolen his jewelry in Brooklyn. He pulled out a gun and shot at them. But he missed and killed an innocent bystander. He’s now 42 and has served about 22 years of a 25-to-life sentence. That poor guy just wanted his stuff back, right?
Then there was 38-year-old Michael Crawford, who was convicted at 17-years-old of shooting an individual who stole concert tickets from him in Buffalo back in 1999. He’s already served 20 years of a 22-to-life sentence. That’s good enough, right?
Then there were the other prisoners convicted of robbery or weapons possession.
They’re now out.
That’s right – the same governor who would like to see his citizens legally disarmed just commuted murder and weapons possessions convictions. Because people who legally acquired firearms are the bad guys… not murderers.
While freeing these convicts, the Trump hating Democrat took a shot at the President.
“While President Trump shuts down the federal government over his obsession with keeping immigrants out, New York stands strong in our support for immigrant communities.”
If you think Cuomo is alone, you’re wrong. As a matter of fact, last week the California Supreme Court rejected California Governor Jerry Brown’s attempts to commute the sentences of longtime prison inmates, including a Sacramento man who beat a man to death back in 1997.
In recent weeks, the court has denied 10 of Brown’s clemency actions. It’s the first time they’ve made such a move in a half century.
On Christmas Eve, Brown issued 143 pardons and 131 commutations. Nine of the 10 inmates who had commutations were rejected had been convicted in homicide cases.
It’s sort of a “thing” for Brown, who has been looking to stick it to President Trump for years.
Last December, Brown granted pardons to two men who were going to be deported for committing crimes while in the U.S. With the pardons, the reason for the applicants’ deportations was eliminated.
The Democrat governor seems to believe in the power of redemption over the power of law enforcement, and has been actively blocking law enforcement officers in his state from cooperating with federal immigration authorities.
He says it’s all about mercy.
But what about mercy for the victims? For their families? For those who follow the law?
And of course it begs the question… if governors are looking out for the illegal aliens… who is looking out for the legal citizens who are being murdered?
The Sheriffs dept. said "It's not their responsibility to keep those students alive.Deputy Scot Peterson,was the only armed person on campus, failed to confront the shooter...HE HID IN PLACE !

The shooting left 17 people dead.
