I, and many other legislators have been trying to enact an amendment to the Iowa constitution to guarantee the rights of Iowans to keep and bear arms, as is guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution, for a number of years. In our current proposal, we are leaving off the language in the preamble of the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment, having to do with a militia. The reason is that opponents of a citizen’s right to keep and bear arms have used that preamble, so far unsuccessfully, to argue that the Constitutional right only applies to the military and law enforcement, and not to the average citizen. |

"The Right of the People". To think otherwise is just one more reason to leave if you don't like it here. "They" just want the young to think that voting is the only thing you have. You have rights. Know them.. Liberty and Freedom awaits all who do. |

TO REMEMBER |
...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
