Tyrants and chiefs new budget...

Enlighten us ALL by what specific 'checks and balances' you feel are needed.

Prior to U.S. v Miller, it was implicit that the citizen had/must have the same as the military. (The standing army, as it were...) In fact that was central to the governments case...
GCA '34 turned that on it's head....I'm still not sure how that happened.
No matter, the "checks and balances" are IN the Constitution, and unlike State constitutions the world over, they are "checks and balances" on GOVERNMENT.

We've tried subsidizing law enforcement in poorly served communities in the past. The end result was that it was a temporary subsidy and things went back to normal at the end of it.

The reasons behind hiring 87,000 more IRS agentss is becoming clearer.

Hiding citizen control inside measures touted as protecting weaker people has long been a practice of deception. The womans protection provisions are no exception.

We are being attacked on multiple fronts but let's not ignore the current battle. We still need to be writing testimony for House Bills 2004, 2005, and 2006. Might as well get your testimony on HB 3511 ready since the hearing date will most likely be released this week.

We should shoot off some emails and ask them to quit committing these crimes against the second amendment and recent decisions.

Maybe they don't know about the Constitution or Supreme Court?

Sounds like you're a supporter of HB 2572, a bill that specifically targets conservative gatherings while dismissing Antifa and BLM riots. Your rabid east coast author of the bill sent chills up and down my spine, and should have done the same for anyone that believes in freedom.

You are wrong about "well regulated militia", no offense.
As for "checks and balances", there are "checks and balances", on BEHAVIORS.....there outta be a law against hurting people, or taking their stuff.....
Oh, and The U.S. Constitution is a "check" on the BEHAVIOR of Government, the "balance" being we have what we want, .gov be damned.
It's just that too many citizens think there outta be "checks and balances" on CITIZENS.
Enlightened? No offense.

Joe

Not really. I don't remember there being any verbiage about checks and balances. What constitutes a well-regulated militia?

 

[red442joe]

The Constitution is the "check"(restriction) on the Behavior of government.
Laws against socially repugnant Behavior are the checks on Citizens.
The "balance" is the Citizens possibility to stand against a tyranical government not being restricted by equipment limitations.(imbalance)
Who are The Militia? They must be able to aid The State with their own, personally supplied, sufficient, equipment.
