Attention

I have resumed my membership in the National Rifle Association, which I allowed to lapse due to financial conditions.  I have also have answered their National Gun Owners Action Survey.

The twelve questions with my answers are.

1. Do you agree that the Second Amendment to our United States Constitution guarantees your individual right to own a gun and that the Second Amendment is just as important you other constitutional rights.
  
Yes.
  
2. Should the federal government have the power to tell you how many firearms you’re allowed to own?

No.

3. Should the federal government have the power to ban you from purchasing a handgun?

No.

4. Do you support a national gun registration system allowing federal government officials to keep track of all your firearm purchases.

No.

5. Do you oppose the United Nations gun ban treaty that would give international bureaucrats the power to dictate firearms policy here in the United States.

Yes.

6. Should the United States Senate deny confirmation to any U.S. Supreme Court nominee who refuses to affirm that the Second Amendment protects a fundamental individual right?

Yes.

7. In your view, should law-abiding citizens like you be allowed to sell or give your firearms to family members without being under the thumb of the federal government?

Yes.

8. Do you think the federal government should ban standard-capacity magazines that hold than 10 rounds of ammunition?

No.

Do you think that the federal government should once again impose a ban on semi-auto firearms.

No.

10. Would you knowingly elect a member of the U.S. House or Senate who supports the Obama gun-ban agenda?

No.

11. Will you authorize the NRA to use your survey answers to fight for your fundamental rights at the federal level and in your state legislature?

Yes.

12. Will you help fight for your freedom by by joining the NRA today?

Yes.

All of the these questions should have been no-brainers.  But the fact that some of the questions have been asked may indicate a willingness to compromise on some of the issues as deemed necessary.

All ten articles of the Bill Of Rights establish without question the primacy and authority of the People over the federal government.

While over the course of the last century and a half real progress has been made to establishing the legal equality of all persons without regard to race or gender.  The so-called Progressive movement has negated all real progress by reversing the relationship between the People and the governments of our nation and the states.  The federal and various state governments have assumed the role of master while the People are condemned to the status of livestock.

This must end now. 

Furthermore, the establishment and continued membership in the United Nations Organization is clearly wrong.

As Ayn Rand has pointed out, allowing the Soviet Union into an organization is clearly a mistake.  This only served the goals of the USSR.

We have a lot of work to do to correct these errors.
