To Support and Defend...Letter to the Beaufort Observer

By CCTA Member, Louis Call

“…….that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic;  that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;”. What powerful words; think about it for a minute."..support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic”.

What do you think our Forefathers had in mind when they wrote those words over two- hundred years ago? They certainly didn’t want our Constitution subverted by a handful of politicians with hidden agendas. Their agenda was the protection of our Freedoms and Liberties from all enemies, foreign and domestic as clearly stated when our elected representatives step forward, places his/her hand on the Bible and swears the Oath of Office. 

But something is about to change unless you and I step forward. As is the usual case, when a socialist administration is in power, they will use any crisis to attack our Constitution. They will use any excuse; clean air and water, energy efficiency, gun violence…..to gain more control over our lives. Can you name one person who doesn’t want clean air and water, more miles per gallon from your vehicle or protection from gun violence? The real question is, how do we get there.

The funerals had barely finished for those twenty children and six adults in Connecticut when the leftist media started on its crusade for more gun control.

Their goal, and that of some of our elected representatives, is the demise of the 2nd Amendment. I am not suggesting that it will be dissolved; just little bites taken out of it. That way they think we won’t notice; but we will.

The government has a long range plan to take care of you and I from womb to tomb. Private organizations aren’t part of the plan because they would have to give up some power if we suddenly decided to take personal responsibility for ourselves and be guided by personal initiative.

As an example the National Rifle Association has put forth and agreed to sponsor and support the National School Shield program under the direction of Asa Hutchinson. Space does not permit a full outline of this program but I suggest you Google NRA National School Shield for a full review. 

He is an example of what I mean when I say ‘little bites’. Senator Diane Feinstein’s (D-CA) legislation for a new ban would, among other things, redefine “assault weapons” . It would require current owners of such firearms to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act, and require forfeiture of the firearms upon the deaths of their current owners.

All liberals love this kind of stuff EXCEPT none of which will keep you safe in your homes, places of business or schools.

What it will really do is set the stage, in the future, for confiscation of firearms giving a hostile government the location of all registered firearms. Can’t happen in the good ole’ USA? Think again…its already happened in New Orleans after hurricane Katrina. Warrantless searches by The ‘Big Easy’ police department were used going door to door confiscating firearms under the guise of ‘an emergency’. A policing agency left law abiding citizens totally defenseless against looters. The police department was affectively sued in Court and required to return all firearms collected.

Today, more so than two hundred years ago, our Constitution is under attack from forces within our own government. It is facing a small but determined domestic enemy that views our Constitution as an impediment that must be subverted to achieve their agenda. If we allow this force of evil to succeed, our grandchildren will never know the Country you and I grew up in. From all those ‘little bites’ will come the ultimate loss of freedom and liberty will be just another word in the dictionary.

But there is something you can do. You can demand that our legislators adhere to our Constitution as it was written and that the rights of individuals are to be protected at all cost. Their authority over our Country comes from you and I. We will not tolerate that abdication of our Republic to a tyrannical regime and we will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; so help us God.
