    | NY: The Second Amendment Is A Right To Bear Arms, Not A Right To Threaten Submitted by:

    | The Second Amendment of the US Constitution guarantees a citizen of this country the right to bear arms. However, it does not give someone the right to threaten another person’s life with that weapon. As a matter of law, a verbal or written threat on someone’s life with a gun most likely is a crime. I was quite disturbed to read in this publication Christina Cardinale, the Democratic candidate for the 150th Assembly District which includes Chautauqua County, was receiving serious threats of harm by some who own guns. This is utterly deplorable. She was forced to come to the Post Journal to explain she was in fact very intent on vigorously protecting Second Amendment rights.

    | Waidaminnit. A New York DEMOCRAT is "very intent on vigorously protecting Second Amendment rights?" 
 (Anybody wanna buy a bridge in Chautauqua County, NY?)
 
 Who do you (and she) think you're kidding? Democrats = inveterate liars.
 
 People who vote to remove or diminish others' rights are enemies, and we are righteously justified in treating them as such.

                      | To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |  |  |
