This advice should ring true to ALL Republicans – not just to NH State Senator Jeanie Forrester

Permission granted to post (and follows along with the words I just wrote:

Jeanie,

I’ve heard that the NH Senate – and quite a few senators – are thinking of voting in favor of SB 244.

I was wondering if you’ve made up your mind and if you’ve had any discussions with other senators about the 2nd Amendment in the US Constitution.

My guess is that most of the senators made it out of grade school, so they probably can understand this simple sentence:

“A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

You get that don’t you? I’m sure you do.

… shall not be infringed” means that no law shall ever be passed that does anything to LIMIT, UNDERMINE or ENCROACH on the right to keep or bear    arms. Period. 

Any law that’s ever been passed that has anything to do with gun control is unconstitutional.

Say what you will about past Supreme Court rulings, but those people in the black robes get it wrong from time to time. Roe vs. Wade comes to mind for starters.

The words in the 2nd Amendment are crystal clear.

Any senator that votes FOR SB 244 to infringe on gun rights needs to understand voting like that in the NH Senate Chambers has consequences at the voting booths in each city and town.

I will do everything in my power to make sure any senator – even one’s not in my district – will have some free time on their hands after the next election should they make the mistake of voting FOR SB 244.

Tim Carter

And he is FAR from being the only one making that promise!  My words?  Yes, they match Tim’s and extends on WHY, more and more, people are taking the Constitution seriously:

…Instead, we ALL should be asking, especially our legislators and the bureaucrats who should be executing the laws they create, is this Constitutional? Does this fit in with the spirit on which this country was founded?

Fortunately, I believe, with the rise of the TEA Party movement, ordinary people (in their uneasiness of where this country is heading) started to look at their history and their Foundational document (without the whole OVERburden of legal decisions)  and their plain language.

NH’s Constitution is similar in its makeup as to how its Framers viewed the Right of NH Citizens and firearms:

[Art.] 2-a. [The Bearing of Arms.] All persons have the right to keep and bear arms in defense of themselves, their families, their property and the state.

I think I can quote Tim here without ANY fear here as well:  “that no law shall ever be passed that does anything to LIMIT, UNDERMINE or ENCROACH on the right to keep or bear arms. Period.” Ordinary folks aren’t going to read all of the legal decisions that are piled on top of one after another after another after another and so on.  Instead, they rightly are going to the source material (and not someone’s opinion thereof about it) and making up their own minds.  Then speaking AND voting their mindsets.
