  1. The right wing is not defending gun rights; they are defending mass murder.

  2. The "Declaration of Independence" was never law, and applied exclusively to England. And it does not include the word "overthrow".

  3. This is in the Constitution that Greene has never read: "Art. I., S. 8., C. 15. The CONGRESS shall have the Power To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute [ENFORCE] the Laws of the Union, SUPPRESS INSURRECTIONS, and repel Invasions." And this: "Art. I. S. 8., C. 16. The CONGRESS shall have the Power To provide for organizing, ARMING, and disciplining, the Militia . . . reserving to the States the Appointment of the Officers, and training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed BY CONGRESS."

  4. Bannon calls it "flooding the zone". When I was a kid it was called "Overwhelm with bullshit".

  5. Four facts and a Massachusetts gun control law: 1. There is an account of Samuel Adams giving a speech at Fauniel Hall, Boston. During the speech muskets were arrayed along the front edge of the stage. After he finished the speech the guns were gathered up and put back into the PUBLIC STORES. 2. He was talking about STATE rights to establish gun control without the Federal gov't, including the Supreme Court, infringing that right. 3. Note that he says "PEACEABLE citizens". 4. His statement is OPINION, NOT LAW. Last but not least, this is a gun control statute enacted in Massachusetts: ___ ACTS Passed at the Session begun and held at Boston, on the Twenty-seventh day of August, A. D. 1746. . . . . CHAPTER 11. AN ACT TO PREVENT THE FIRING OF GUNS CHARGED WITH SHOT[T] OR BALL IN THE TOWN OF BOSTON. Whereas by the indiscreet firing of guns laden with shot[t] and ball within the town and harbour of Boston, the lives and limbs of many persons have been lost, and others have been in great danger, as well as other dammage has been sustained; for the prevention thereof for the future,-- 306 Be it enacted by the Governour, Council and House of Representatives, [Sect. 1.] That no person or persons, from and after the publication of this act, shall presume to discharge or fire off any cannon laden with shot[tl, from any wharf[f]e or vessel in that part of the harbour of said town which is above the castle, on pain of forfeiting the sum of fifteen pounds for each gun so fired or discharged; one moiety of said penalty to be to and for the use of the poor of said town of Boston, and the other moiety to him or them who shall inform, complain and sue for the same, to be recovered by action, bill, plaint or information, before any of his majesty's courts of record within the county of Suffolk; and upon refusal thereof, such person shall suffer three months' imprisonm[en]t without bail or mainprize. And be it further enacted, [Sect. 2.] That no person shall, from and after the publication of this act, discharge any gun or pistol, charged with shot[t] or ball, in the town of Boston (the islands thereto belonging excepted), or in any part of the harbour between the castle and said town, on pain of forfeiting forty shillings [for] each gun or pistol so fired or discharged, to be recovered before one or more of his majesty's justices of the peace for the county of Suffolk, and disposed of in manner as aforesaid; or shall suffer ten days' imprisonment. And for themore effectual conviction of any person or persons so offending, it shall be lawful for any person to seize and take into custody any gun so fired off, and deliver the same to one of the next justices of the peace in said town of Boston, in order to its being produced at time of trial. Provided, nevertheless,-- [Sect. 3.] That this law shall not be so construed or understood as to prevent soldiers, in their common-training days, with the leave and by order of the commission officers of the company to which they belong, or other persons, at other times, with the leave of one or more of the field-officers of the regiment in Boston, from firing at a mark or target[t], for the exercise of their skill and judgment, provided it be done at the lower end of the common; nor from firing at a mark, from the several batteries in the town of Boston, with the leave of the captain-general, and nowhere else. [Sect. 4.] This law to continue and be in force for the space of three years, and no longer.
