Tell Sackett SASS 18436 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Most likely an ambush of any conservative who shows up. Isn't that how they do it? Link to comment

And after I have my say, and all the good little leftists yell and vilify and make their death threats I will thank them for displaying the hate, anger, and violence that made up their core values. I'll also point out that just because they lack self-control, discipline, and morals they should not assume that those with differing opinions also have those failings. Should be fun! Link to comment

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Joe, I do hope this is filmed... Vallejo seems to have changed somewhat from when I lived there back in the 80's. Link to comment

Sanford where SCOTUS ruled against Dred Scott in part because granting him, and all Negros, full citizenship would mean that they could go about armed like everyone else. Link to comment

Is that playing the race card from a different hand?? It CERTAINLY will throw some sand in the machinery!! I'd love to see it grind to a halt, but aside from a nuclear event, I'm afraid you're shouting into a hurricane!!! Link to comment

But I use it more to show that the revisionist view, that 2nd only applies to states, the National Guard, etc. is incorrect and that the individual rights to keep and bear arms was recognized by SCOTUS, even if it was in a decision to uphold chattel slavery, at least as far back as 1857. In part:""Scott v. Sanford decision: " It would give to persons of the negro race, who were recognised as citizens in any one State of the Union, the right to enter every other State whenever they pleased, singly or in companies, without pass or passport, and without obstruction, to sojourn there as long as they pleased, to go where they pleased at every hour of the day or night without molestation, unless they committed some violation of law for which a white man would be punished; and it would give them the full liberty of speech in public and in private upon all subjects upon which its own citizens might speak; to hold public meetings upon political affairs, and to keep and carry arms wherever they went. And all of this would be done in the face of the subject race of the same color, both free and slaves, and inevitably producing discontent and insubordination among them, and endangering the peace and safety of the State." So, it would seem that in 1857 it was common practice for people "to keep and carry arms wherever they went." As to "shouting into a hurricane." Link to comment
