Welcome To Russia


VOTE TODAY ON FOUR GUN GRABS
INCLUDING FEINSTEIN'S S. 150!

BOTTLE UP THE GUN BILLS IN COMMITTEE

URGENT: The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, headed by none other than Vermont Democrat Sen. Patrick Leahy himself, votes TODAY on three blatant gun grabbing bills – S. 150, S. 54, S. 374 – and one 'feel good' spend your hard-earned dollars on a do-little interagency taskforce bill pretending to make our schools "safe" – S. 146!

To be more specific about what we're up against:
LEAHY'S S. 54 WILL BAN ALL PRIVATE SALES, 'NECESSITATE' GUN LICENSURE!
FEINSTEIN'S S. 150 WILL CONFISCATE 160+ "ASSAULT WEAPONS' MAKES AND MOST MAGAZINES!

SCHUMER'S S. 374 WILL MANDATE UNIVERSAL BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR EVERY FIREARM SALE OR TRANSFER!

WE CANNOT ALLOW THESE BILLS TO GET OUT OF COMMITTEE AND ONTO THE OBAMA-RIGGED SENATE FLOOR FOR A FULL VOTE! AS THE HAGEL SECDEF CONFIRMATION SO REVOLTINGLY REMINDED US, IN THE CLINCH WE CANNOT RELY UPON OUR SO-CALLED CONSERVATIVES TO STOP THE SELL OUT OF OUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!

If we defeat Obama's gun grabbing in committee, we have him backed into a corner with too much political exposure to keep up an open fight. But if he can get these bills to the floor of the Senate and the House – look out! Obama's threats, intimidation and acts of coercion to get his way then can only be met by our resolve to impeach and the determination of our states to remain free…

Please, SELECT HERE to make your voice heard by the Senate Judiciary Committee and everyone else on Capitol Hill! And remember, it's not just the notorious Feinstein gun grab that must be stopped. Leahy's gun grab is every bit as dangerous to our rights and freedoms as LAW-ABIDING GUN-OWNING AMERICANS – and Schumer's help-along for a Big Brother national gun registry is not far behind!

EVERYONE has heard about the Feinstein "assault weapons" ban, but there is MORE gun control afoot that in its way is JUST AS BAD! Flying under the radar for weeks, Vermont Democrat Sen. Patrick Leahy's S. 54 gun ban bill introduced last month makes the mere planning of gifts and raffles of firearms punishable with 20 years in prison, and mandates universal gun licensure – and it is ALL SET TO PASS!
You see, the conniving S. 54 Stop Illegal Trafficking in Firearms Act of 2013, was cleverly and stealthily introduced while America at large was deliberately distracted with the odious Feinstein gun control flashbang.

Of these two bills, Leahy's S. 54 is supposedly the more politically 'acceptable' infringement upon our Second Amendment, meant to cripple us but protect incumbent Democrats up for re-election in 2014. It was designed to allow these anti-gun liberals to vote against the Feinstein ban yet vote for this cleverly crafted gun grab, which WILL empower the Obama Feds to accomplish what they really want – the disarmament of the American people. And this time, they aren't even pretending it's in the interest of public safety.

By now, you've probably seen the Gabby Giffords gun control commercials. As part of an emotional, manipulative P.R. maneuver, the unconstitutional infringement of our right to keep and bear arms is being billed as bandwagon 'common sense' when it is nothing but an elitist progressive plot. It is intended to keep each and every one of us at the mercy of fully ARMED Big Brother – legislation that will do NOTHING to keep firearms out of the hands of maniacs and criminals while doing everything to leave law-abiding citizens DEFENSELESS!

Gun Owners of America's Michael Hammond writes:
At its core, Section 3 would send a person to prison for 20 years if youATTEMPTED or PLANNED ("conspired") to buy a firearm as a gift for another person or to conduct a raffle of a firearm, and negligently failed to note that the gift recipient or the winner of the raffle was, for instance, a veteran with PTSD who had been placed by the Department of Veteran Affairsonto the NICS list.
Note that you don't have to actually transfer the firearm to go to prison for 20 years, nor do you have to know that the proposed recipient is a prohibited person. It is enough that you acted negligently, that you planned to gift or raffle the firearm, and that you engaged in one "overt act" necessary for conspiracy to take effect (e.g., getting in your car to drive to the gun shop).
In fact, the veteran or "prohibited person" doesn't even have to be on the NICS list and doesn't have to know they are a prohibited person. A marijuana smoker is a "user of … [a] controlled substance." If you buy a gun with the intention of gifting or raffling to one of those, you can go to prison for 20 years, be subject to draconian forfeiture provisions (933(a)), be prosecuted and sued under RICO (933(c)), and be prosecuted for money laundering (933(d)). In other words, unless you're "feeling lucky," the bill would effectively outlaw gifting and raffling firearms.
Finally, buying a gun for any other person – even though it's perfectly legal for him to own a gun – is illegal under all circumstances except for a gift or a raffle. Hence, if a person buys an AR-15 in another state where he has a vacation home (under 18 U.S.C. 922(b)(3)) and leaves it with a friend in that state for safekeeping – 20 years.

And then there is Section 5, which in our increasingly anti-gun and increasingly liberal judicial system could be used to PROHIBIT ANYONE FROM OWNING A FIREARM WITHOUT A LICENSE just by making a few edits!

Section 5 reads:
Section 922(d) of title 18, United States Code, is amended…
(1) in paragraph (8), by striking 'or' at the end;
(2) in paragraph (9), by striking the period at the end and inserting '; and
(3) by striking the matter following paragraph (9) and inserting the following:
(10) is prohibited by State or local law from possessing, receiving, selling, shipping, transporting, transferring, or otherwise disposing of the firearm or ammunition;
(11) intends to sell or otherwise dispose of the firearm or ammunition to a person described in any of paragraphs (1) through (10); or
(12) intends to sell or otherwise dispose of the firearm or ammunition in furtherance of a crime of violence or drug trafficking offense or to export the firearm or ammunition in violation of law.
This subsection shall not apply with respect to the sale or disposition of a firearm or ammunition to a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector who pursuant to subsection (b) of section 925 is not precluded from dealing in firearms or ammunition, or to a person who has been granted relief from disabilities pursuant to subsection (c) of section 925.

In other words, if you are prohibited by State or local law from possessing a firearm, you will also be banned by federal law and PLACED IN THE NICS system!

This WHOLE new front being waged on our Second Amendment rights is made the more laughable and ALARMING given the fact that Attorney General Eric Holder – ACCORDING TO THIS BILL – and all of his Department of Justice and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) underlings SHOULD BE IN PRISON FOR 20 YEARS for their FAST AND FURIOUS and FEARLESS DISTRIBUTING gun-running schemes!

But as we all know, the Lords – that would be the Obama Feds and his legion of bureaucrats – and the peasants – that would be US – are no longer bound to the same code of laws under the reign of King Obama.

That's why Harry Reid is so excited to pass through Leahy's Gun Control Plot, and Schumer's national gun registry primer – media obsession with the Feinstein Gun Grab was just all part of the distract and deflect strategy being put forth by this administration, and unless your elected officials HEAR YOUR OUTRAGE, FEDERAL GUN CONTROL WILL BE ENACTED WITH NO NEED FOR FEINSTEIN'S BILL!

In fact, Leahy's bill could very well incorporate its own version of the Feinstein gun and magazine ban that just as one bill will largely render the Second Amendment obsolete for private citizens!

It just depends on whether or not Obama's CAPITOL HILL minions think they can get away with it!

Fortunately, we have grounds to fight, even with weaklings like Mitch McConnell "leading" the GOP. ELEVEN Democratic senators are up for re-election in PRO-GUN states in 2014 putting the progressive chokehold in jeopardy, especially if they keep trying to jam through the notorious anti-gun Feinstein Bill. But with S. 54 on the table, they don't have to succeed with that bill… because they have their strategy laid out, and Harry Reid is a behind the scenes schemer with a MUCH better strategic team than McConnell.

Mark Begich (Alaska), Mark Pryor (Arkansas), Mark Udall (Colorado), Mary Landrieu (Louisiana), Al Franken (Minnesota), Max Baucus (Montana), Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire), Tom Udall (New Mexico), Kay Hagan (North Carolina), Tim Johnson (South Dakota), and Mark Warner (Virginia) are the Democrats whose re-elections hinge on not appearing to be anti-gun. That's why Harry Reid is going to let them vote AGAINST Feinstein's pride and joy "assault weapons ban" while turning around to vote FOR Leahy's "gun-trafficking" bill that STILL stealthily insinuates into law the national gun registry and licensure that will give the Feds control over our guns, and that the Feds have wanted all along anyways. For them, it's a win-win.

For us, it's no less than the inevitable obliteration of our CITIZEN gun rights, just as has unfolded in Great Britain, Canada and Australia – and no less effectively than if the high-drama, big-publicity Feinstein gun ban were to pass.

America, we didn't fall for one word of Obama's silly skeet-shooting "I have a profound respect for the traditions of hunting" public relations lie, just as we didn't fall for the Feinstein gun grab veil in the name of 'public safety.'

But now we must fight Leahy's phony anti-gun trafficking bill AND Schumer's national gun registry bill, as well. And just like with the Feinstein farce, we will only win this on-going battle to preserve and protect our Second Amendment rights for present and future generations if we LOUDLY and INCESSANTLY demand our elected Members of Congress honor their oaths of office to uphold the Constitution of this country!

IF CONGRESS DOES NOT ANSWER OUR CALL TO ACTION AND BOTTLE UP THESE BILLS IN COMMITTEE, THESE FOUR DANGEROUS GUN CONTROL ACTS WILL PROCEED TO FULL FLOOR VOTES IN THE DEMOCRAT SENATE – WHERE ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!

Already, Obama's gun-running accomplice Eric Holder IS IMPLEMENTING proposed regulation changes to begin enacting the illicit 23 Gun Control Executive Edicts his master Barack Obama issued! These will accomplish the following under the false mantle of 'public safety':
1. Grant local law enforcement agencies broad access to the gun sale database maintained by the FBI;
2. Allow law enforcement agencies to perform a NICS check BEFORE returning a confiscated, seized or otherwise recovered firearm to its owner;
3. Mandate the FBI keep ALL records of denied weapon sales in-house to "enhance the efficiency and operational capability of the NICS." The records will be kept indefinitely.
This data will be all ready and set for vast NICS integration, expansion and application new, broader UNCONSTITUTIONAL federal law, especially once Obama gets the Leahy legislation passed – unless WE STOP THEM! You better believe that the Feds are all sorts of 'interested' in who has a gun, and who is trying to buy a gun these days, and it's NOT the criminals they are worried about!

Think we are exaggerating? We have recently alerted you to Obama's most recent aggressive abuse of law-abiding citizens, persecuting former members of our military through the Department of Veterans Affairs with threats, intimidations and coercion in order to disarm our brave Veterans!

There is NO equity in the age of Obama under the law; we are no longer a nation of equality before the law. The Justice Department even tucked away special permission for Native American tribes to access NICS…

We MUST fight back before it is too late! While the gun prohibitionists try to sway the uninformed masses that We the People were only endowed with the Second Amendment to kill deer or turkeys or join Obama in his all-time favorite – SKEET SHOOTING – there is NO SPORTING OR HUNTING CAVEAT TO OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS

Not on who may have a firearm, NOT on why we may have a firearm, and NOT on what firearm we may have!
NONE OF THESE GUN CONTROL LAWS ARE CONSTITUTIONAL! Remember, with Barack Obama's national campaigning and complete endorsement, Sen. Dianne Feinstein has now introduced her OUTRAGEOUS and FAILED "assault weapons" ban legislation in the U.S. Senate, and the elites of America act like this GROSS INFRINGEMENT upon our rights is permissible under our ordered liberty! IT IS NOT!

And even though unlike the ObamaCare travesty, we are finding out the unconstitutional horrors contained within BEFORE Congress votes for it, it still is NOT looking good for us law-abiding gun owners if those we have entrusted with office in Washington CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A CONSTITUTIONAL AND AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAW!

In 1995, Feinstein justified her core belief in national disarmament of the citizenry in the propagandistic promises of saving children and reducing crime, just as she is justifying her renewed attempts to pass an extremist, disgusting, draconian act of legislation AGAIN. THIS outrageous bill requires the re-registering of virtually ALL useful or market desirable firearms and the submission of our fingerprints just like those of sex offenders. Demagogue Diane Feinstein is apparently incapable of shame.

Surely at the suggestion of gun control posse leader Joe Biden and Dear Leader himself, Feinstein's war on firearms also includes a buy-back provision forcing gun owners to 'voluntarily' turn in their guns for a pittance or else have the government come into our homes and seize our firearms.

Accordingly, Senator Feinstein's bill includes measures to stop the sale, transfer, importation and manufacturing of:
  • 120 specifically-named firearms;
  • Other semiautomatic rifles, handguns or shotguns that can accept a detachable magazine and has one or more military characteristic;
  • Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds.
FURTHER, to promote the Obama anti-gun fear meme the left is assiduously constructing, Feinstein's bill extends the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban AND various state bans by:
  • Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test;
  • Eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from the characteristics test; and
  • Banning firearms with "thumbhole stocks" and "bullet buttons" to addressattempts to "work around" prior bans.
It also bans average and large capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of accepting more than 10 rounds. Feinstein herself has admitted to the goal of regulating our handguns into non-existence for us commoners…
And then there is this – THE FEINSTEIN GUN GRAB BILL, IF PASSED, WILL NOT APPLY TO OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS– AND NEITHER WILL LEAHY'S VILE S. 54!
The laws these days are just for the little people!

MAKING THIS FIGHT MORE GRAVE STILL IS THAT LEAHY'S BILL IS CAREFULLY CRAFTED SO IT COULD EASILY BE AMENDED TO INCLUDE FEINSTEIN'S SECOND AMENDMENT HIT LIST THAT TARGETS WHICH GUNS AND WHICH CAPACITY OF MAGAZINES ARE BANNED FROM LOWLY PLEBEIAN OWNERSHIP!

All these Obama-Biden-Democrat maneuvers incorporating the the Feinstein-Leahy-Schumer-Boxer tag-team strategy and the bullying Obama 23 Executive Edicts are shameful, UNCONSTITUTIONAL 'infringements' on our God-given and lawfully guaranteed right to keep and bear arms as a free people… to violate the Second Amendment in this despotic manner comprises high crimes and misdemeanors and is grounds for impeachment.

If passed, the Feinstein disarmament bill will REQUIRE grandfathered weapons to be registered under the National Firearms Act, to include:
  • Background check of owner AND transferee;
  • Type and serial number of the firearm;
  • Identification, photograph AND fingerprint;
  • Certification from local law enforcement of that identity and compliance with state and local laws;
In the same spirit as Obama's $500 million Anti-Gun Executive Edicts, our broke progressive-controlled government is going to make sure one way or another – whether it's Feinstein's or Leahy's odious, unconstitutional legislation – gun control is PASSED.

Remember, our Second Amendment MUST BE SAVED from ALL of Capitol Hill's gun grabbing efforts AND Obama's Executive Actions – and WE CAN DO THIS, even with Barack Obama in the Oval Office – but ONLY IF WE FIGHT BACK!
