“Gun violence is a public health crisis in communities of color, and the Second Amendment has roots in slavery.” This is the opening remark in an article titled, “Racial equity agenda must include gun control,” as published in the Leftist website, “Crosscut,” by Clyde Ford, March 8, 2021.
In tandem with the incendiary myth of “critical race theory,” thrust on the American public, and especially on our children by an entrenched Marxist-dominated and controlled Executive Branch and Democrat-Party controlled Legislative Branch of Government, quietly but inexorably and insidiously penetrating, permeating, and percolating through the Nation’s public educational system and even through the military—and all with the help of a seditious, legacy Press, an arrogant Marxist academia, and the inordinately wealthy, powerful, and abjectly ruthless Neo-liberal Globalist technology mega-monopolies—is the application of erroneous and dangerous critical race theory to the Nation’s fundamental Rights and Liberties.
A new myth recently being propagated by Obstructors and Destructors of a free Republic and being projected into the psyche of the American citizenry is that the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights has its roots in racism:
“The Second Amendment is deeply rooted in America’s racist past, and fundamentally connected to the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others. But to make this connection, one must be a “strict constructionist,” someone who looks beyond the Constitution’s written word to the underlying motives of the founders.
At the Second Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, in 1787, Southern delegates were fearful the U.S. Constitution they were drafting would restrict their right to own, sell and transport slaves. In response, Northern delegates crafted a document in which nearly one-quarter of the clauses appeased the slaveholding South, and the words “slave” or “slavery” never appeared. The Second Amendment was key among these appeasements.
Patrick Henry, a Virginia slaveholder, opposed ratifying the Constitution, fearing it would cede state control of slave patrols (politely called “militias” by the founders) to the federal government. James Madison, favoring ratification, said in a debate with Henry, “If the country be invaded, a state may go to war, but cannot suppress insurrection. If there should happen an insurrection of slaves, the country cannot be said to be invaded. They cannot, therefore, suppress it without the interposition of Congress.”
Take either side, Henry’s or Madison’s, local or federal, and the same fundamental issue remained: preserve slavery at all costs.” From “Crosscut,” supra.
This, in essence, as set forth in Clyde Ford’s article, is the argument perpetrated on the American people by Anti-Second Amendment Marxist zealots and, very recently, perpetuated by these Anti-American, Anti-Constitutionalist elements with a frantic, frenetic sense of urgency, for they are hell-bent on making as many substantive changes to a free Constitutional Republic as their fevered sociopathic minds can conceive.
In their non-stop campaign to convert a Nation grounded on the precepts, principles, and tenets of INDIVIDUALISM, into a Marxist Hell grounded on the precepts, principles, and tenets of COLLECTIVISM, the latter of which are found operative in Countries such as China, Russia, Cuba, and Venezuela, and, too, are to be seen operative in the European Union since the Nations that comprise the EU are presided over by a COLLECTIVIST Government, presiding in Brussels, Belgium that has usurped much of the power that once resided in the Governments of the individual Countries of the EU and is continually usurping more power. Such is the goal of Marxism and Neoliberal Globalism. And these Marxists and Neoliberal Globalist monopolists intend to bring the people and resources of the U.S. under their umbrella.
In their vision of the ideal political, social, economic, and cultural societal construct, individual thought and expression are not only discouraged, but are not to be tolerated; and a Sovereign people whose sovereignty is made clear in the words of the Constitution and whose sovereignty is assured by virtue of their God-given Right to Keep and Bear Arms in defense of Self and Family against those two-legged predators who would dare to harm them physically and in defense against an oppressive, repressive bloated Government that would dare to intimidate them, and to subjugate them, and to reduce them to penury. An armed American citizenry is, to these Marxists and Neoliberal Globalists, an anathema. And these reprehensible and ruthless forces are constantly devising ways to defeat exercise by the citizenry of their unalienable, immutable, illimitable, natural right to keep and bear arms.
Although not a new idea, having had its beginnings going back at least as far as the last two decades of the Twentieth Century, the myth has gained renewed attention and vigor from Progressive and Radical Left social media, and Left-wing news organizations, and Marxist academicians. The myth of the Second Amendment having a racist origin, being propagated today is not accidental.
The claim of ‘racism’ is, in fact, a major strategy employed by both the Marxists and Neoliberal Monopolist Globalists as they go about attacking and undermining the very foundation of a free Constitutional Republic. These Anti-American, Anti-Constitutionalist forces apply the appellation of RACISM with complete abandon, and amplify it, most notably to:
- OUR NATION’S HISTORY
- OUR NATION’S FOUNDING FATHERS
- OUR NATION’S FOUNDING DOCUMENTS
- OUR NATION’S HERITAGE
- OUR NATION’S INSTITUTIONS
- OUR NATION’S CULTURE
- FREE MARKET CAPITALISM
- OUR NATION’S FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES
- THE BASIC ETHICAL TENETS OF CHRISTIANITY
Yes, even our BILL OF RIGHTS, CHRISTIAN SENSIBILITIES, and JUDEO-CHRISTIAN ETHIC AND ETHOS are being senselessly and mercilessly attacked by America’s Marxists, and America’s Neoliberal, Globalist monopolists as “RACIST.” And in that, the American people are being systematically robbed of everything they hold dear. And why are these Destructive elements in our Nation employing the charge of racism to everything Americans cherish? These destructive forces and influences of ATHEISM and ANTI-NATIONALISM are attacking such things because these things denote the importance of and, indeed, the essence of American identity and American cohesion rooted in FAMILY, COUNTRY, PERSONAL AUTONOMY, INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY, AND INTEGRITY OF SELFHOOD.
The forces of atheism—Marxists and Neoliberal Globalist Monopolists—can have none of that! They have replaced the aforesaid sacred, invaluable treasures of our Nation, upon which the very BEING of our Nation and our ancestral memory depends, with a radically new political, social, and economic paradigm:
DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION
Of all the schemes falling under this paradigm of “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion—a paradigm operating, too, as an irrepressible and boisterous MANTRA of the Destructors of our Nation, the fact that they are now applying the charge of “racism” very specifically to one fundamental, unalienable, immutable, natural right, demonstrates the importance these Destructors place on the Second Amendment.
During the first couple of months in Office, the present Administration, comprising Marxist and Neoliberal Globalists, has consciously ignored tending to the immediate elimination of the Second Amendment, even as they are cognizant of it, having, during the 2020 campaign, made clear their abhorrence and abject fear of it. So, it has never been far from their mind.
But now, unmistakably and undeniably, as the Marxists and Neoliberal Globalists have consolidated their power in Government and, therefore, consolidated their power over the American people, they have directed attention back to that favorite nemesis: THE SECOND AMENDMENT OF THE BILL OF RIGHTS.
Of course, they planned to do this all along, but, had the Harris-Biden Administration attacked the Second Amendment head-on during the first few weeks of ascendancy, that would have drawn the ire of most Americans immediately, and they were not prepared to do that.
The secretive handlers of the newly vested Great Pretenders, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris, wanted Americans to grow accustomed to THIS PAIR in the Executive Suites. Hence, even as the Great Pretender, Biden, signed many more Executive Actions in his first few weeks in Office than had any other past U.S. President, it was hands off the Second Amendment, even as the Second Amendment was always uppermost in mind, as the salient concern.
The Harris-Biden Administration handlers believe they can proceed now, as they feel much of the populace has been softened up through weeks of propagandizing—through the constant drone of DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, playing hypnotically through the various media organs, and they have made much headway, even as they stumble here and there and as they are facing a considerable public backlash against the insinuation of “CRITICAL RACE THEORY” in so many institutions: POLICE AND THE MILITARY; PUBLIC GRADE SCHOOL AND SECONDARY EDUCATION; HIGHER EDUCATION; BUSINESS AND FINANCE; and, now as it is coming to light, THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY, too.
The problem for the Obstructors and Destructors of our Nation is that, despite the consolidation of power, they know full well that however well they might cajole Americans to accept many of the Marxist programs, and notwithstanding their successes in whittling away the right of free speech, and freedom of association, and notwithstanding their major successes in destroying the privacy of one’s personal effects, the Counterrevolution of 2021 cannot have a concrete effect and lasting success as long as Americans possess firearms.
Claiming the Second Amendment has its roots in racism is just one more avenue of attack, preposterous as the claim is. Marxists will say anything, however absurd or inconsistent their remarks, if it furthers their agenda, and they need to make haste on defeating the Second Amendment before the 2022 midterm elections and the very real possibility of losing control of Congress. This is their most difficult but most critical task.
After all, an armed citizenry is the first and last bastion of a Free People—the final FAIL-SAFE mechanism to ensure the continued existence of a Free Constitutional Republic and a Sovereign American people.
It was force of arms—THIS AND THIS ALONE—that enabled a ragtag group of colonists to defeat the might and power of Great Britain, that made possible at all the success of the AMERICAN REVOLUTION OF 1776. No less, it is only by force of arms that the American people can hope to prevent the AMERICAN MARXIST COUNTERREVOLUTION OF 2021 from succeeding. It isn’t that Americans will be compelled to resist Marxists and Neoliberal Globalist Monopolists by force of arms. It doesn’t have to come to that. It is in the exercise of the right that the threat to a TYRANNICAL MARXIST GOVERNMENT. Tyrants cannot and will not abide a population of armed citizens. TYRANTS NEVER HAVE ABIDED AN ARMED CITIZENRY AND NEVER WILL. Biden himself may not realize this. It is likely that this man, who is in a state of incipient, cascading, and permanent cognitive decline, understands little of anything that a secret cadre of handlers give him to read to the American people or permit him to utter extemporaneously. And Harris, who is so enamored of the thought of succeeding to THE THRONE—no less than Hillary, before she came crashing to Earth, and remains disgruntled over the reality of her defeat to Trump, to this day—has, as is apparent, no firm conviction about anything other than her own ambitions, and certainly no love of Country.
But most Americans do have firm convictions concerning the necessity of preserving the Republic; realizing that loss of the Republic means loss of Country. Only in the exercise of the right to keep and bear arms can both a free Republic and the authority of the American people as sole, supreme Sovereign be preserved. And the reality of this sits firmly in the psyche of the American citizenry, and it is a thing not so easily dislodged. And the Marxists and the Neoliberal Globalists know this all too well and that makes them frustrated and, therefore dangerous, for in their anguish to dissolve the Country as a Free Constitutional Republic and to bring the American people to their knees, they might light a powder keg.
