The Congress exist because of the Constitution... the Constitution exist because of the Militia and an armed People. The rule of law is secured by a proper and functioning militia... See: Article 1, Section 8, Clauses 14 and 15. To this end, the Militia must be armed with the weapons necesary to secure the Law and with it... the cause of liberty.
The Militia is present to enforce the law... against enemies of the People. The 2nd Amendment was established to institutionalize the Militia and too ensure the People's right to be armed as necessary to protect their liberty and property. It is essential, to the maintenance of liberty and the security of property rights, that the freedom of the right to keep and bare arms never be surrendered. It is the right to keep and bare arms that is the linch pin by which the People assert and protect their inalenable rights to life, liberty and the persuit of happiness.
Tyrants and usurpers always seek to disarm the Militia... an armed People. However, the militia in these United States is part of the Constitution in Article 1, Section 8, Clause 15 and 16. The Constitution establishes the Militia as an institution of its creation, part of the balance of power, an instrument of the People, too be called forth for three primary reasons: 1) To execute the laws of the land. 2) Too, supress insurrection. 3) Too, repel invasions. The militia is a permanent Constitutional institution, on an equal status with the Congress, Administration and Federal Courts. In fact, it is the People's guard against a LAWLESS GOVERNMENT. Congress may call the Militia to restore law and order, supress insurrection and to repel invasions, as it sees fit. The Militia may be used to remove rouge elements within the government, where insurrection and lawlessness is rampant.
The rights of a free people exist only by the exercise of force of arms... the power needed to enforce the laws of the land, was to rest primarily with the People and their Militia, not a standing Army or a Police State. It is a free people who establish just governments, which bring equity and order to society. Without power the People's Militia is incapable of defending liberty or to enforce the rule of law. Tyrants and usurpers whose purpose is to RULE the People, must first disarm them and nulify the Militia; thus an armed tyrant binds the labor and property of a free people to their use and cause. It is an ARMED PEOPLE and their Militia that is a terror to rogue governments and tyrants. Our founders guaranteed the right of the People to keep and bare arms, as part of a greater force for good, the Militia. The Militia is the sword of a free people and the defender of liberty against rouge governments.
The Militia is not the National Guard... it is not an arm of the government. Rather, it is an Armed Citizenry that is the Militia. An organized and unorganized Militia exist, by right of Constitutional and statutory law, in every State of the Union. There corporate body, when properly armed and trained, exist to secure the common liberty of our Nation. Our founding father's understood all governments gravitates toward corruption, that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. They institutionalized the Militia, within the Constitution itself, as the People's means of defense, against a corrupt Government. The Second Amendment guards the People's right to keep and bare arms as part of the Militia. The right to keep and bare arms is the underpinning power of a free People, a Militia, able to defend against the abuses of a rogue government.
Those who attempt to remove the right to keep and bare arms... endanger the balance of Constitutional Power between the People and those who govern. The power of the Militia rests in the right of the people to keep and bare arms. So fundamental to freedom, is the right of self-defense, that our founders ensconsed the Second Amendment to guarantee that right against future usurpation by rouge governments. Arms for Hunting and Personal Defense are a bonus benefit of the Second Amendment, not the primary purpose of the Second Amendment. The Constitutional purpose of the Second Amendment is to secure the People's right to an armed Militia; the People's agent to enforce the rule of law, to put down insurrection and reple invasion.
Despots and rouge governments fear an armed People and their Militia... knowing that when the People are armed they have the means and power to establish law and order as they see fit. A rouge government seeks to disarm the People in order to control and subdue the general population. A free people don't fear their government and a fearful people are a people without the means to defend against those who would usurp their liberty by force of arms. Laws are useless without the power to enforce them.
Our Constitution is meaningless if the People lack the power to enforce it's law. The People of the United States remain armed for the time being. It is therefore imparative that the People remain armed and prepared to defend liberty and the rule of law, thru the force of arms, it they desire to remain free. However, when a history of usurpations and abuses of power, by government, prove to be insurrmountable agents, designed to deprive the People of their liberty, it becomes the right, nay the duty, of such a people to cast off the bounds of that rouge government and too establish new guards for their liberty.
That time is rapidly approaching... watch for the tyrants too begin arms consfiscation. That will be the call to arms and the sign for mobilizing the People's Militias. Any law or regulation that is contrary to the Constitution has no legal standing. It is only thru the illegal abuse of power that the agents of law enforcement take away the right to keep and bare arms from citizens of the United States. The right to keep and bare arms, shall not be infringed is Constitutional law... the supreme law of the land. It is time that the People remind their government of its purpose and too defend their rights under the Constituton to keep and bare arms as they see fit... not as some government agent, illegal law or regulation dictates.
