Mr VJP Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 "The government may not descend to the evil of preventive law. The government cannot treat men as guilty until they have proven themselves to be, for the moment, innocent. No law can require the individual to prove that he won't violate another's rights, in the absence of evidence that he is going to. But this is precisely what gun control laws do. Gun control laws use force against the individual in the absence of any specific evidence that he is about to commit a crime. They say to the rational, responsible gun owner: you may not have or carry a gun because others have used them irrationally or irresponsibly. Thus, preventive law sacrifices the rational and responsible to the irrational and irresponsible. This is unjust and intolerable. The government may coercively intervene only when there is an objective threat that someone is going to use force. ... Statistics about how often gun-related crimes occur in the population is no evidence against you. That's collectivist thinking. The choices made by others are irrelevant to the choices that you will make. ... The government may respond only to specific threats, objectively evident. It has no right to initiate force against the innocent. And a gun owner is innocent until specific evidence arises that he is threatening to initiate force. Laws prohibiting or regulating guns across the board represent the evil of preventive law and should be abolished." --columnist Harry Binswanger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trial153 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) Good luck with that... He was even willing to circumvent the law to pass the safe act under the false premiss of an emergency. So do you really think he gives a s*** that he is violating our rights. He knows full well what he did and will do it again given the same opportunity.

ants Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 The little King knows that he is violating our 2nd amendment rights. He doesn't care. He's not stupid and his advisors and lawyers are not stupid. He will do what ever is politically expedient for him to gain more power and control. He will rationalize his infringements on our rights and call it anything but an infringement. He doesn't care. Its all about him. He is a bad, dirty politician. End of story. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I can imagine Andy chuckling out loud while reading this. He knows that there are no such restrictions on him. He makes the rules as he goes along, and thanks to NYS apathy, he gets away with it. I intend to do my part to attempt to unseat this evil character, but I have to admit that we likely have lost complete control over our government. It remains to be seen how it all turns out, but I am beginning to fear the worst. Politics has become an exact science that all the characters in our government have mastered. They all know the impotence and lack of dedication that has taken over the voting public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
