Within the next month, Congress will be taking actions that will impact our Second Amendment rights.
Here’s what we’re facing. On or about September 30, Congress will consider a “continuing resolution” (CR) to fund the government from October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2012.
Well, you can be sure about this — when it comes to funding the government, any bill passed by Congress will NOT be neutral on the Second Amendment:
* Either the CR will fund the anti-gun ObamaCare program … or it will explicitly prohibit ObamaCare from being funded.
* Either it will fund ATF’s illegal efforts to register multiple sales of long guns in the southwest … or it will explicitly prohibit those activities from being funded.
* Either it will fund the Obama administration’s illegal efforts to block the importation of shotguns and rifles … or it will explicitly prohibit these bans from being funded.
* Either it will fund negotiations at the United Nations to produce a small arms treaty that will license firearms, ban semi-autos, and ban tiny modifications of firearms … or it will explicitly prohibit those negotiations.
Barack Obama can veto the CR. If he does so, his wretched administration will be shut down.
But the House of Representatives also has a veto, as it can refuse to send an anti-gun CR to the Senate. So the message is that Congress needs to reject any CR which:
* Does not defund ObamaCare;
* Does not defund the illegal multiples sales regs;
* Does not defund the illegal shotgun and rifle import bans;
* Does not defund the UN negotiations to license American gun owners.
We can tell you right now that there will be some congressmen who will say: “Sure, I voted to fund ObamaCare. But that doesn’t mean I support ObamaCare.”
That is a lie.
There are congressmen who will say: “Sure, I voted to fund the registration of long guns. But that doesn’t mean I support the registration of long guns.”
That is a lie.
There are some who will say: “Sure, I voted to fund the bans on importing shotguns and rifles. But that doesn’t mean I support those import bans.”
That is a lie.
And there are some who will say: “Sure, I voted to fund UN negotiations to register gun owners. But that doesn’t mean I support gun registration.”
That is a lie.-[source]
