New Leak Shows ATF Will Pass Rule to Eliminate Private Sales

Let me say this about that:
This bureaucracy called the ATF, along with the Biden administration, are doing their best it seems to make revolution necessary. Congress and the Court need to step up to the plate, reign these people in, and make revolution unnecessary. That, after all, is what the people in our government are supposed to do. Those people were elected to protect our rights, not their power and position.
It is said that the power of our government is divided into three branches. In reality, there are four branches to our government. We the People comprise the first branch, Congress the second branch, the Executive the third, and the Judiciary the fourth. Why are we first? Because We the People have rights, the other three only have powers delegated to them derived from our rights. We have the right to cut them off if and when any of those other three branches fail in their duties or attempt to become dictatorial, tyrannical, or even despotic in an attempt to usurp our rights and subjugate us.
The three branches of government We the People created via the Constitution were designed to keep each other of them in check and in compliance with the Constitution as We the People so dictated. If those branches, any or all of them, run afoul of the Constitution, We the People have the final say - our exclusive right - as to how to set things back on track. We have the power to replace the errant people in government with the power of our votes, and if that fails, we have the right to use arms to effect our constitutional order.
Even if those in government feel they are exercising some ethereal power to keep us free from harm by disarming us, maybe have no intention of subjugating us or becoming some sort of tyrannical dictator, they would make us vulnerable to anyone else who would have those desires. That would make them no less despotic as those to whom they would make us vulnerable. Whether their actions be an end or create the opportunity for an unintended consequence, We the People need to wake up, put our foot down, and stand ready with our arms to assure our freedom. Our arms are the only guarantee that freedom will reign.
As I often say, "Knowing the past, I will not surrender any arms and march less prepared into the future."
