ALERT: State governments must oppose all forms of federal gun-control!

Fax all 50 state governors demanding that they defend the People's Second Amendment!

Conservative American,

What is to be done now that it is apparent that Washington is hell-bent on destroying the Second Amendment?

What is to be done to combat pending gun-control legislation that would establish tyranny, rather than liberty, from sea to shining sea?

The answer is federalism. The answer is state action.

States legislatures must combat all of Washington's unconstitutional gun-grabbing!

Shared Sovereignty:

Under our system of federalism - that is, our system of co-existing sovereign governments - established by the Constitution, the federal government is the most limited in terms of how it can influence human behavior. In fact, the Constitution gives the U.S. Congress power to legislate over only eighteen areas (likewise, the President can only enforce and the Courts on interpret these eighteen.)

Expressly stated, the federal government only has power to make laws relating to -- money, commerce between states and with other nations, rules for naturalization, the creation of post offices and courts, and the support of the military.

All other areas are reserved for the States themselves to decide. So, while it is true that the federal government is the most powerful government, it may only exercise its supremacy in a very limited set of areas.

Don't be fooled: the fifty separate governments comprising the United States are not provincial governments of Washington! No, they are independent and sovereign in their domains.

Have we forgotten that state governments contracted to form the federal government - first through the Articles of Confederation then the Constitution? Or that the "free and independent states" were what the Declaration of Independence acknowledged?

When Washington is Wrong:

It's true that the Civil War greatly challenged state sovereignty in terms of secession - but the outcome of that conflict did not make the federal government all-powerful or unlimited!

No; all powers not expressly given to the federal government -- those not outlined above -- and not prohibited by the Constitution, belong to the states under the Tenth Amendment!

Further, when the federal government acts in opposition to the Constitution their actions are unwarranted and ought to be declared "null and void" by the states! (This is theDoctrine of Nullification, a principle established in 1798.)

Gun-laws that are being proposed by Congress (think: Feinstein Ban), and measures being taken by the Obama Administration (think: Executive Action) are what theDeclaration of Independence calls "pretended legislation" - that is, legislation that isillegitimate and unlawful.

State governments must take action to oppose all "pretended legislation" that would establish gun-control.

The fact is: unless the Second Amendment is fully repealed, no federal gun-control "law" is actually legal - no matter how great liberals may think it to be.

Law is law and the Second Amendment stands.

States Mobilizing against Washington:

States have already begun to mobilize against the gun-grabbers in Washington!

States legislatures are preparing to combat the feds - and even their colleagues - over any legislation that is out-of-step with the Second Amendment.

In Missouri, House Member Mike Leara has a bill that would make gun-control legislation illegal and threaten sponsors of such anti-gun legislation years of jail time. Rep. Leara said last week:

"I have no illusions about the bill making it through the legislative process, but I want it to be clear that the Missouri House will stand in defense of the people's constitutional right to keep and bear arms..."

Texas Rep. Steve Toth takes another approach to defend gun-rights in his state. His "Firearm Protection Act" would prohibit the enforcement of pending federal gun-control legislation like the Feinstein Ban.

Rep. Toth's bill would create a Class A misdemeanor for police officers enforcing any new federal gun regulations. Further, it would prompt the state attorney general to sue anyone who seeks to enforce federal anti-gun regulations.

Rep. Mike Chenault's HB 69 recently cleared Alaska's House Judiciary Committee, receiving the support of six of seven committee members including a Democrat. The Speaker's bill, like Toth's, would threaten federal enforcement agents with felony charges.

There are a growing number of states taking to the defense of our God-given right to "keep and bear arms" to counteract the efforts of those in Washington.

State legislatures must not only continue to carry-on this important fight by crafting federal gun-control nullification bills, but governors must also get on board.

As lawmakers in the several states continue to offer pro-Second Amendment bills, we must demand that state executives get behind such legislation and sign them into law!

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
- Second Amendment.

No federal or state lawmaker or executive has the power to ignore the Second Amendment whatsoever.

As gun-control efforts mount in our Nation's capitol, it is time for states to exercise their powers and refuse to go-along with Washington's disarmament agenda.

Our founders gave us a federalist system under the Constitution - the Supreme Law of the Land - and it is time for the states to flex their muscles in the People's defense.

In addition to faxing governors, make sure that you also send a free message to your state legislature demanding that they oppose all federal gun-control efforts.
