On April 8, 2021, President Joseph R. Biden Jr., during his news conference regarding gun violence, proclaimed that “no amendment to the Constitution is absolute,” and remarked that gun violence is a public health issue. Earlier this year, Biden proposed $5 billion in funding for the Department of Justice and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to “invest in community violence interventions;” to me, that means promulgating regulations on gun ownership. Biden was attacking the 2nd Amendment, which states that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
Will Biden issue a presidential order, proclamation, mandate, decree or fiat banning all of your rights listed under the Bill of Rights, such as freedom of religion, speech, press, peaceful assembly, life, liberty, property ownership, pursuit of happiness, and being secure in your home by declaring them as not absolute?
Ranking Democratic Party members in Congress are also attacking America. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, a multi-millionaire achieved through the American enterprise system, last year declared that the American system of capitalism has failed America. U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer shouted, “Now we take Georgia, then we change the world!” A shocking statement indeed. Former President Barack Obama once implied that we don’t need a revolution as long as we are making incremental changes.
Once you lose your rights as enumerated under the Constitution, you, your children, your grandchildren and future American generations will no longer enjoy freedom and the pursuit of happiness.
