Is Bob Owens channeling the ghost of Grandpa Vanderboegh these days?

"Son, you don't poke a wolverine with a sharp stick unless you want your balls ripped off." -- From Grandpa Vanderboegh's Rules of Life as expressed in family oral tradition, circa 1962.
Mike Vanderboegh's Derivation of Grandpa's Rules of Life, circa 1995: "If you try to take our firearms we will kill you."
Bob Owens discovers something: Supreme Court’s Decision Could Lead To Second Civil War
If the Supreme Court fails to take up the case, or takes up the case and decides against Freidman, then they will have set the stage for an inevitable civil war, pitting the nation’s radical anti-gun Democrats who desire to destroy the Second Amendment against the 100-140 million American gun owners who will not comply with laws and court decisions that clearly fly in the face of original intent.

The 7th Circuit did a very interesting thing with that Friedman case. Mind you, this is the same court that forced IL to become a shall-issue state, and IL didn't even appeal the decision. The language is so egregious and is so counter to the language of Heller and McDonald, it appears to have been done purposefully to force the hand of the Supreme Court. Essentially, the court ruled that Highland Park had no evidence that these rifles were more dangerous than others, but "feelings" were an appropriate legislative reason. It was a brazen attempt to either ignore the Heller and McDonald ruling, or it was a softball setup so that the SC would take the case.

That is the game played now but it goes beyond idiocy based decision. Laws are being passed with the intent to play the system - to get courts to issue decisions they want.

For example - California has state preemption, but its narrow (supposedly). A township or city decided to go off the reservation to pass its own gun control. Now, its players know full well it will see legal challenge. And it has.

But get this - the premise of challenge is NOT Heller and McDonald! THe Second Amendment ITSELF is NOT being used to strike this local law! Instead, the corrupt NRA and its Democrat partners are having state preemption be used to toss it out. Well why do that? Of course, it is to AVOID courts racking up Heller McDonald decisions that build the undeniable case law that destroys gun control at the baseline. Instead, the corrupticrats are working together to STRENGTHEN state POWER over the Second Amendment.

Many poke fun at the Fudds but you know what? They are a clear and present danger - themselves becoming anti Second Amendment. Using preemption as a means of slamming local infringement is a WICKED abuse.

Please see the game folks - they are conning gun owners into cheering the augmentation of state power OVER the enumerated right to keep and bear arms. Wake UP!

Sick of Bob. A semiauto is not a Brown Bess equivalent. The equivalent to a Brown Bess would be a full-auto M4, just like the military issues. M249s, MANPADs, grenades...they are all arms capable of being borne by a man and thus protected under the 2A.

With friends like these...

Frankly, I would prefer a civil war at this time to fix ALL of Americas problems (the corruption, the crooked law enforcement, the transgression on Liberty band Freedom, and destruction of the cancer called Political Correctness, the welfare state and the masses of useless eaters breederd and breathers, especially the corrupt self appointed Elite like Al Gore and his types), not just addressing this issue, so I hope they push it. Its time to purge us some traitors communists and socialists...We cannot hope to survive as a Sovereign nation with the course our "leaders"(sic) have plotted... Its time to get this underway before im too old...
