SALEM, Oregon (PNN) - July 18, 2023 – In direct disregard for the Supreme Law of the Land, a criminal judge just ruled that the state’s new gun control law - invalid on its face because it “infringes on the right of individuals to keep and bear arms - is constitutional.  An Oregon sheriff called it “a terrible law for gunowners, crime victims, and public safety.”

Fascist Police States of Amerika District Judge Karin Immergut claimed that large-capacity gun magazines “are not commonly used for self-defense and are therefore not protected by the Second Amendment.” She justified this mystifying logic by asserting the Second Amendment “allows governments to ensure that only law-abiding, responsible citizens keep and bear arms.” Which doesn’t seem to be any sort of explanation for new restrictions on legal firearms.  Such criminal activities perpetrated by judges have already been overturned by the Supreme Court.

The Second Amendment clearly states that the individual right to keep and bear arms “shall not be infringed.”  Nowhere does it say that there are exceptions for certain types of firearms; neither does it authorize the government to determine when and where those exceptions arise. The truth is that the government is denied by the Constitution any authority whatsoever to make such determinations.  This is why the Declaration of Independence clearly stated that “whenever any form of government is destructive to these ends (of preserving fundamental rights), it is the right of the people to alter of abolish it.”

Measure 114 unlawfully attempts to put new restrictions on Oregonians’ firearms, including “permit-to-purchase” guidelines. Fascist outlaw Immergut claimed that Measure 114 accords with “the nation’s history and tradition of regulating uniquely dangerous features of weapons and firearms to protect public safety.” Considering the Founding Fathers used the most powerful weapons they could get their hands on to start, fight, and win the Revolution, the judge’s assertion is itself a criminal act.

Linn County Sheriff Michelle Duncan previously criticized the legislation in December. “We’ve seen the statistics that most crimes involving guns that criminals commit, they’re not obtaining those firearms legally anyway,” Duncan said. She also stated she “can’t put handcuffs on someone knowing that there is this black cloud around the constitutionality of that magazine capacity limit.” Ultimately, the sheriff called Measure 114 “poorly written” and (on Facebook) “a terrible law for gunowners, crime victims, and public safety.”

The Founders recognized that the precious rights of the First Amendment depend on the Second Amendment. Gun control laws don’t just undermine the right to keep and bear arms, they put all other rights and liberties at risk.

“A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined,” George Washington insisted. “The supreme power in Amerika cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed,” Noah Webster reflected with satisfaction.

Thomas Jefferson was particularly insistent that gun control does more harm than good. “[Such laws] disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.”

But considering that gun-grabbing Democrats frequently support soft-on-crime policies that favor violent criminals, it would seem that putting law-abiding citizens at risk does not cause them a moment’s concern.

Ed. Note: The solution is simple. This ruling is invalid, and you do not need to obey it. Do not comply! Get your firearms - whatever firearms you wish to obtain - through private sources.  Never purchase a firearm at a federally licensed firearm dealer. Revolution Now! Independence Forever!
