After the Tucson shooting, there has been a bipartisan call to ban guns, free speech and to desecrate the Constitution. The dumb dumb liberals have been the loudest in the call to kill our Constitutional rights. But there have been Republicans, who were swept into office last election on a platform of following the Constitution as a sacrosanct document, are also calling for a reduction of rights.
Peter King, a Republican Congressman from Long Island and chairman of the House Homeland Security committee, plans to introduce a bill that would make it a felony to be in the possession of a firearm within 1,000 feet of a Federal official. This bill is wrong on many levels and could lead to the total disarmament of the American people.
What would constitute a Federal official? Your local mailman is considered a Federal official. Would it be illegal to have a firearm in your home if the mailman is dropping off your mail? Most houses are not set one thousand feet or further from their mailbox. Some houses have mail slots in their doors or have mail boxes attached to the house. Being an overly skeptical human being with a love for speculative fiction, I could see this bill being used as an excuse to get rid of everyone’s guns.
Census agents are also considered Federal officials. Would it be illegal to have a firearm in your home when the Census agent knocks on your door once every ten years?
It seems fairly convenient that every state is forced to have gun registration laws where the State knows who has guns and who doesn’t. They know where the guns are and when laws like the one being introduced by Congressman King are put into affect, they come and take them. The response from sane gun owners should be: try and take them. Just see what happens. (Hate speech! Arrest him!)
Peter King is a hypocrite. He believes the American people are a threat to domestic tranquility, making all of us terrorists. But Peter King has a dirty little skeleton in his closet. He himself is a supporter of a real terrorist organization and he is responsible for killing innocents. Back in the 80’s and early 90’s, Peter King was a fundraiser for the Irish Republican Army (IRA). The IRA is responsible for killing scores of innocents, including women and children, and anyone that supported them either financially or materially has the blood of innocents on their hands. Congressman King’s hypocrisy knows no bounds.
Of course, like most gun control laws, it does not apply to armed federal agents. I’m sure they would never hurt innocent people…
