They understood human nature. In order to reduce the power the Fed gov't would have, knowing that gov't inevitably devolves towards evil, they instituted the separation of powers. They assumed, e.g., that if 2 branches of the Fed gov't put in place something grossly unConstitutional, like, say, Social Security, the third branch would shut it down. Or, e.g., if one branch of the Fed gov't were to declare something idiotically unConstitutional, like, say, that every state was forced to allow every mother to hire a butcher to murder her unborn child, that the other 2 branches of the Fed would refuse to enforce this and impeach every justice who claimed such a bizarre and reprehensible thing.<br />And, knowing human nature, they realized that probably, at some point, the separation of powers would fail, and all 3 branches of the Fed would conspire to put in place some law or laws that are grossly unConstitutional. They assumed that one or more of the states' governors would stand up and declare that such laws were unenforceable within their borders.<br />Again, knowing human nature, they realized that the governors might fail to do this. They then assumed that duly elected county sheriffs would deputize sufficient armed citizens to prevent the enforcement of such laws within their jurisdiction. Hence the Second Amendment.<br />But all this has failed. At this point my guess is that a direct assault on the 2nd A would probably trigger its activation. What about the 1st A? If the Gospel is declared 'hate speech' at a state or Fed level, will the Sovereign of the Nation take up arms to enforce that portion of our Foundational Law that forbids such a thing? I fear that we will find out, sooner rather than later.dDochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00205311616949194893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-943909742701873352020-10-18T14:22:01.308-04:002020-10-18T14:22:01.308-04:00How anyone can vote for Biden is beyond my compreh...How anyone can vote for Biden is beyond my comprehension. It comes, no doubt, from all the lies thrown at Trump. Russian collusion-lies. Racism-big lie. Ukrainian quid pro quo and resultant impeachment-lies. He botched the response to covid-lie (as if Biden, et al could have done any better). How do you respond to the unknown, after all? <br />Now we see the non-response to Biden corruption which, in a more perfect world, would sink any chance of his gaining the White House.<br />And to top it all off, have we seen a Biden rally in any way comparable to the smallest Trump rally?<br />I'm ready to fight and die, regardless of November 3rd's outcome.SWVAguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10661677638340868536noreply@blogger.com
