Here how I see it. There is a reason why the Democrats are after private ownership of guns. They cannot succeed with their agenda of total control of us until they effectively disarm the citizenry.
The 2nd Amendment is not in the hands of politicians, local or federal. It is a declaration that this right to bear arms was granted by our creator.
If these politicians push the envelope much further with "common sense gun control", and disarm us, it does not negate the fact that we have the right to bear arms, and will embolden the citizenry to use arms.
It is one thing to bear arms. The bearing of arms is a warning to politicians that they face dire consequences if they push the citizenry too far.
The use of said arms is what the 2nd amendment is actually all about.
The current state of the monstrosity, which is our federal government, is the "government" the Forefathers warned us about.

Its at this point inevitable .... just a question of when. Its interesting to see how much further they can push before the whole charade will blow up in their face.

Here here.....

Hope springs eternal -- reality is a whole nother game.

Spot on! The commies are organized and not scared to fight for what they believe in and are essentially winning due to ^^^. I hear a lot of talk about the 2A but as long as conservatives refuse to organize and stand up then as far as i'm concerned it's just all talk- case in point- the commies stormed the capitol in Tenn. but where were the pro 2A counter protestors? Where were the conservatives supporting the legislators who booted the three commies? Crickets.....................until conservatives grow a pair and quit being so scared of trannies and purple haired land whales then you might as well get used to calling each other " comrade ".

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high. (( Ephesians 6:12 ))
Do you know who the enemy is? And who's armor we should put on for protection?

I know who the enemy is and who's armor to wear, but you will still have to fight and kill in the end. There is a time to turn the other cheek and there is a time to slap back!! What time is it now?

That’s a good jab, but ineffective. lol

The majority of us have what the freaks desire, joy in our lives. We have it because we take ownership of it. The others think it is the responsibility of somebody else whether it’s the government, a corporation or even another Individual.

Currently, they are still avoidable. Yes they get a lot of press and media attention, but they are avoidable. The Native American became unavoidable, how did that work out for them?

I'm going to play devil's advocate, without eminent domain there would be another pipeline built, nor would one have been built.

Eminent domain is necessary yet prone to abuse

It is my understanding that eminent domain is not just confiscation, there is compensation, just the value of the land, not the plans you had for it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying we should not defend our selves or fight for our freedoms. What I do see is a nation that has for the most part turned from God. Peaple seeking freedom from our creator so they can live a life for there personal gain with out God. Our nation is not immune to God's judgment. Our founding fathers new this and they sacrificed for our future. Man will continue to follow the course of self distruction. Peaple will always turn from God and to themselves. Then comes judgemet. This will continue till the final judgment. As the Lord's prayer says. Forgive us our trespasses AS WE forgive those who trespass against us.

It’s like they think using eminent domain is a new idea for power generation and transmission lines. Probably every power dam east of the Mississippi was facilitated using takings.

Eminent domain for the public good , is one thing. I.E. - highway-railway-dams-pipelines etc

Eminent domain for economic development is another thing and it is abused a lot. I've seen its abuse here. That is why some states have laws against eminent domain for economic uses.

How will property taxes work without private ownership?

That’s a good jab, but ineffective. lol

They have openly declared that we are the enemy, they control the whitehouse, weaponized the alphabet agencies, control the media, are indoctrinating the kids, and destroying our country ( just to name a few ) and the strategy of avoidance is what has gotten us here. They are at war with us ( admittedly so ) and I fear that until people wake up and realize this it will be to late. Enjoy the " joy in your life " while you have it because, mark my words, they are coming for it.....................

I whole heartedly agree with you victor! Ranked Choice Voting facilitated it here in Alaska! Now our only Congress person is a far left radical. So much for getting anywhere with her. Our brilliant senators aren’t any better. Corruption only corrupts.

It’s one thing to declare war but they aren’t really acting on it. I wear a Trump hat and the “take Biden to the train station” regularly, guess how many people have said anything negative to me. lol

You really think they won't come up with something?

MAGA hat wearing and anti Biden T-shirt wearing= winning, gotcha
