On Gun Control and The Will Of The Majority – The progressive left is once again selling the story of a dysfunctional congress, specifically the Senate, because they did not pass more gun control. A Ridiculous argument.
I know it is difficult to argue logic over emotion, but anyone who has spent time understanding the construct of our Constitutional Republic will attest to the failure of ‘background checks’ actually being a mere outcome of a properly functioning legislative body.
Our founders did not endorse, nor did they advocate for, a democracy – this is Fabian socialist re-writing of history. Read anything by James Madison, Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin to understand the intent of the constitution which binds the nation.
We were founded upon the principle of “individual liberty”, not a collective association. A Democracy was considered only one step worse than a monarchy. We were founded as a Constitutional Republic specifically and intentionally to restrict the influence of government in our lives.
Democracies by their very construct are given to emotional laws and legislation driven by mob rule and short-term consequence. This is antithetical to individual liberty. A constitutional republic is an empowered rugged individualistic approach.
For decades now the Modern Progressive movement, spurred by the Fabian-Socialist believers, has tried to deconstruct the very fabric of that constitutional republic. The passage of the 17th amendment, electing Senators by popular vote, was one of their largest victories.
Senators were supposed to represent the will of the individual State. Senators were supposed to be appointed by the leaders of each state to represent their interests.
The Senate was constructed to specifically insure that when laws came from the House of Representatives they would be filtered, modified, or eliminated, by people who would look out for the best interests of individual states.
Currently there are 30 Republican Governors. 19 Democrats, and one Independent.
Looking at the Senatorial construct given the basis of original intent there would be 60 conservative leaning Senators, 38 Democrat Senators, and two independent Senators.
That is the current political and ideological perspective that “should” exist – if we were following the construct of our Constitutional Republic. Alas, the bastardization of the Senate by the Progressive Movement’s 17th amendment – has created the very dysfunction the progs now rail against. Now Senators are bound to party ideology and not the protection of states rights as outlined in the 10th amendment.
In addition, there are only 16 states where Democrats control the State Legislature:
Progs do not want you to understand foundational principles, that is why they expend infinite levels of effort to indoctrinate the electorate into clouded understanding of our founding.
The failure of gun control legislation was merely a reflection of the factually accurate current outlook by the majority. Progs don’t want you to know, and be armed with, that factual aspect.
Regarding Islam – There is no such thing as radical Islam, that term is a misnomer perpetuated by the same progressive ideology. Those who would rail against freedom, kill non muslims, and perpetuate a demand for a global caliphate are merely fundamental Islamists following the central tenet of their belief. Period.
Failure to accept the fundamental principle of Islam does not protect you from it. (See: 911, See Underwear Bomber, See Fort Hood shooting, See Boston Bombing et al) No amount of obfuscation will stop fundamental Islam from attacking any principle based on freedom.
Freedom is antithetical to Islam.
