FK – For the most part ‘protest’ has historically been a commie tactic.
This is all distraction. If there were any men in this country the ‘rioters’ would be shot down the moment they started destroying private property and the shooters would be given congressional medals and paid bounties per head.
Then they’d go after the trash that creates the commie globalist propaganda and pays the rioters. Then the commie ‘protesters’ would be rounded up and kicked out of this country because they don’t belong here.
The republicrats aren’t going to save us and there are no men here to do what will be required.
President Donald Trump has nominated Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court, and the liberal Left is in full mourning right now.
Democrat Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut is symptomatic of the wailing and gnashing of teeth that is occurring today. Murphy tweeted this about Judge Kavanaugh:
“Brett Kavanaugh is a true Second Amendment radical. He believes assault weapon bans are unconstitutional, a position way out of the judicial mainstream, far to the right of even late Justice Scalia.”
Actually, Sen. Murphy is right about one thing. Early analysis (using a liberal-conservative scale) indicates that Kavanaugh is to the right of Scalia — and even to the right of Justice Neil Gorsuch.
There is no doubt that Kavanaugh is pro-gun and will be a HUGE improvement over Anthony Kennedy, whom he is replacing.
Kavanaugh, in his most important gun-related decision (Heller II) filed a dissent arguing that D.C.’s ban on semi-automatic firearms was arbitrary and unlawful.
In fact, his dissent was so well argued that GOA’s subsequent legal briefs have repeatedly held up his dissent as the model to follow.
In another case, Kavanaugh correctly interpreted the Firearm Owners Protection Act to find that a defendant could not be sentenced to 30 years in prison for use of a fully-automatic firearm if he was unaware that the gun fired automatically.
Kavanaugh also supported the prevailing opinion in the Citizens United case, which affirmed GOA’s voice in the political arena.
When all is said and done, Judge Brett Kavanaugh is a HUGE improvement over Kennedy.
Remember page 54 of the Heller decision — where there was dicta stating that certain gun control laws could be consistent with the Second Amendment?
Legal scholars have uncovered that this page was the price for “buying” Anthony Kennedy’s vote — and getting a 5-4 majority on Heller.
Now he’s gone. And his exit is not lamented by any of us.
Thankfully, it looks as though we have a real chance for the Court to revisit the Second Amendment — and actually hand down future decisions that will begin to dismantle the unconstitutional laws which are on the books.
