Have you ever noticed how some politicians will do everything that they can to prevent the people from getting their way?
Now, that’s not much of a surprise if you’re talking about a politician from some totalitarian regime such as China, but you see that behavior in democracies and in republics, too.
Now, this kind of behavior can certainly come from either side of the political aisle (looking at you, RINOs), but it seems to be especially prevalent from one side of the aisle. The anti-2A side of the aisle.
It’s almost as if, as my son puts it, they have policies so good that they have to be implemented at gunpoint.
Or by preventing anything resembling fair legislative actions.
And we have a particularly ugly instance of that in one state’s legislature recently. Tyler Durden writes,
The Minnesota Senate rammed through sweeping gun control measures on Friday, after deliberately sidelining the state’s largest pro-Second Amendment organization with just 6 minutes of testimony, while gun control supporters got 32 minutes of speaking time on the flagship gun ban bill.
The Democrat-controlled Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee, chaired by Sen. Ron Latz (DFL), advanced S.F. 3655 – a near-total ban on semiautomatic rifles and magazines holding more than 10 rounds – on a strict 6-3 party-line vote. Latz admitted they “prioritized individual testifiers over organizations” – yet anti-gun groups still got slots while the state’s biggest 2A voice was frozen out.
Before allowing input from the public, the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus – representing tens of thousands of law-abiding citizens – warned the public yesterday that committee staff had already told them the hearing schedule was “full” – effectively blocking them from offering in-person testimony on the core bills: the semi-auto ban, the magazine ban, repeal of state preemption (opening the door to a patchwork of local gun laws), and new carry restrictions at the State Capitol and schools.
I wish any of this surprised me, but sadly, it doesn’t.
This is exactly the kind of thing that was commonplace in the Soviet Union and in Mao’s China (and may still be common there since it’s still under communist rule), but it’s exactly the kind of thing that should not be experienced here in the U.S.
The legislators that railroaded that anti-2A legislation through their legislature should be arrested and thrown in jail both for violating the Second Amendment rights of Americans and for preventing the will of the people to be heard.

Ok , so we’re talking about a Democrat Marxist controlled sanctuary cities state that refuses to follow the Constitution! A state that has an Al Quida trained Muslim female senator prancing around the District of Criminals bad mouthing the USA and a duly elected President! A women who lied her way into our country! A Governor who insisted on putting tampon dispensers in Mens bathrooms to accomodate a miniscule lunatic fringe, identity crisis individuals! The money wasted would have been better served helping their homeless, 40 of which have froze to death last winter in Minnesota!
Welcome to Amerika. Can we expect anything different? Might be time to find a new place to live. The USA is going to fail and fall. “Hoping” to get out before it’s too late
Really? Do you know of a better place?

I predict a Lexington and Concord moment in our future. I hope and pray that I am wrong, but it is possible. As an old guy, I fear for our country. We used to be free, but not anymore.
