Carnage in the Supreme Court
The Constitution doesn’t mean what it once did; nevertheless, Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 15 of the US Constitution declares that: “The Congress shall have Power: To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress insurrections and repel Invasions.They made a terrible mistake when they used the word “suppress”. Millions of Americans, thousands of news writers and news broadcasters, five Supremes, one political party and one has-been president believe “commit” is a synonym of suppress.
Modern politicians don’t write so well either. Antonin Scalia, a native born author whose first language was English wrote the majority opinion: “The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home”.
I’ve never known a time when you couldn’t keep a gun to protect your family. Instead the Supremes left the barn doors open for lesser politicians—Governors, Lt. Governors, Attorneys General, state courts to remove restrictions on gun ownership. Have the Supremes not noticed that most mass murders don’t happen in the defense of homes? Are they so concerned about unborn children that they have no time for born and living children? When teachers die trying to defend children do the Supremes and other pro-life politicians ever wonder what heroic deed they might do?
There is a lot of money in the guns and ammo industry. Campaign money, retirement money. Luxury money. Enough money to pay for human targets.
