I, nay, ALL men, not only have the God-given, inherent RIGHT to keep and bear arms, i.e. they possess the natural right of self-preservation, which follows upon the first law of nature. But ALL men have a God-given RESPONSIBILITY to do so!

If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, and which against the usurpations of the national rulers, may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success than against those of the rulers of an individual state.

The Supreme Court does not issue rulings, but OPINIONS ONLY. Additionally, said opinions issued by the Supreme Court are NOT law, for the Supreme Court has no Constitutional authority to issue "rulings" nor to create law, particularly when such opinions violate the Constitution. Therefore, the federalization of marriage to include sodomite unions is NO LAW AT ALL! In fact, the federal government has no constitutional authority whatsoever to standardize any marriage licensing system nor to mandate marriage licenses be granted to sodomites or to any heterosexual couple, for that matter. Therefore, the states are NOT lawfully required to submit or comply with such Supreme Court opinions though these opinions be given 'the color of law'."

"Among the natural rights of the Colonists are these: First, a right to life; Secondly, to liberty; Thirdly, to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can. These are evident branches of, rather than deductions from, the duty of self-preservation, commonly called the first law of nature." ~ Samuel Adams
On "illegals exercising rights enumerated in the Second Amendment" : "Are our rights granted by government or documents!?! NO! Are not ALL men created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights? Our rights are natural, inherent, (God-given). Therefore, ALL persons (here "illegal" or not) have the right to keep and bear arms. At the same time they do not have the right to violate our laws or another person's rights and they should be arrested, charged with such crimes and punished. If we say the right to keep and bear arms does not rightly belong to each and every person under natural law, then we are saying it is government that grants our rights and it then follows (government) can remove those rights from anyone it so chooses at any time it chooses. That's a very slippery slope I refuse to go down.

"As a sovereign freeman, I possess each of my natural rights, not as being granted by any human document or government, from which I must seek permission or "license" to exercise said rights. All men possess natural rights as a gracious inherent blessing from his Creator-God. This being most certainly true, I need not, nor shall I, ask "permission" or seek "license" from any human construct to freely exercise and defend, with extreme prejudice, each of my God-given natural rights as I see fit.

"When will the sleeping majority of the American people wake up to the fact their government, the State is presently at war with them? When will they understand the federal, state and local police are an arm of the State. They are NOT the protectors of our rights. If they are, why are our rights being violated and taken away little by little. The fact of established law is, the police are NOT obligated at all under federal law to protect you, your family, your property, you life, or your rights. For the most part, the police are now simply a state funded gang of jack-booted thugs generating unlawful revenue for the city/State corporations, willfully ignorant and dismissive of our natural, inherent, unalienable rights. The sad fact is, in the U.S. today a person is eight times more likely to be killed by the police than by "terrorists". We are become slaves of the modern 'Merikkkan State and the police are become our task-masters. Too many modern 'Merikkkans yet desire to remain blinded, in denial of the truth going on around them. They are satisfied and will remain quite complacent and compliant so long as they can have their beer and watch their televised Colosseum games un-harassed, their small minds and fat behinds effectively occupied. For now, they indeed, have that "priviledge". However, the day may soon come when they will be forced to realize how foolish they have been. Unfortunately, by then it may be too late to do anything about it."

"Contrary to what our defacto government would have us believe, gun control regulations are not designed 'to keep the public safe'. They are designed to keep the public AFRAID, so that the citizenry must ultimately call upon the very government that unlawfully disarmed them to now "protect" them.

"To tolerate unrestrained government in your life is to allow the proverbial camel to stick its nose into the tent of precious liberty. Left unchecked, you will soon be quite rudely awakened to find the beast occupies and has laid waste to your whole tent, having push you out into a cold desert night of slavery to it."

"Every American ought to be simply horrified and so outraged, they are moved to cohesive action by the recent statement of General Wesley Clark, former NATO Commander, who declared "all disloyal" and "all who do not support" the policies of the American government should be forcibly placed (imprisoned) in internment camps. Likewise, we ought to be equally horrified and moved to action by the targeted arrest and unlawful detention of 26-year-old decorated Marine, Brandon Raub, by the federal government for his Facebook comments concerning government corruption and America’s rapid transition to a police state. Such acts of oppression are no small matter, but are indicative the U.S. has deteriorated into a fascist police state reminiscent of Nazi-Germany.

"If the Devil's children, without any effective opposition from Christians, can today demand and successfully implement through coercion by force of "the color of law", the nation-wide banning of the Confederate Flag and impose the subsequent arrest and incarceration of its supporters, what is to stop them from demanding and successfully implementing a ban tomorrow of any Bible, including the King James Bible, which rightly calls sin, "sin"?

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." -- Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials

“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come
when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship to restrict
the art of healing to one class of Men and deny equal privileges to
others; the Constitution of the Republic should make a Special
privilege for medical freedoms as well as religious freedom.”

“Beware of those who adamantly refuse to make honest examination and evaluation as to whether what they have come to believe or accept as truth, is in fact the objective Truth. This applies doubly to those who so readily become so visibly angry and otherwise defensively animated in their refusal to commit to even a calm, cursory examination of the evidence presented. To insist a particular viewpoint is true without such examination, or to subscribe to the axiom: “I’ll leave it up to the professionals and gladly trust them (e.g. whether one's church pastor, or the high priests of the false "religion" of science, etc.)” must be charitably understood simply as yet another mechanism of their cognitive dissonance "dis-ease" manifesting itself. It is useless, a waste of one's time and energy, to engage the close-minded "victims" of this malady. Such are beyond coming to the actual truth of a matter unless they personally experience an event so devastating in scope, they are forced either to finally accept the truth or, having been so deeply traumatized, literally go mad.”

"Instead of teaching our children to pledge "allegiance to the flag", we ought to teach them to pledge allegiance to the Constitution for the United States. Instead of teaching them the union of states is indivisible and must be retained at all costs, i.e. even at the loss of our individual liberties, we should be teaching them that individual liberty and state's rights must be maintained at all costs, even if that means declaring independence from the seat of our tyrannical current defacto national government. We ought to be teaching our children that tyranny is never to be tolerated anywhere, as it destroys Freedom everywhere."

“If, on the one hand, I can serve my God as a persistent, festering thorn of His Law in the fleshly and spiritual side of the unbeliever and those impenitent and spiritually 'luke-warm' individuals who falsely assert a claim to the name of Christ, yet tolerate and promote false teaching in their doctrine and practice; and if on the other hand, I can serve to generously apply the healing balm of the sweet Gospel of Jesus Christ to the once Law-pricked soul of the penitent, it is enough. For, that is the Great Commission." ~ the Lutheran Watchman ©2015

“It matters not to me that man’s false religion of modern science presumes to tell me I live on a ball, or "globe", which is spinning, wobbling, and rotating around the sun, the imagined (heliocentric) "center" of the modern universe, when God’s Word tells me I live on a stable “immovable” earth. (1 Chronicles 16:30; Psalm 93:1; Psalm 96:10; and Isaiah 45:18) any more than the Antichrist’s religion telling me I must earn my way to heaven through good works, when God’s Word tells me, “By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourself: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast” Ephesians 2:8,9 (KJV). For, my faith, anchored in Christ alone, by the grace of God alone, is immovable as well.” ~ the Lutheran Watchman © 2015
"Sadly, today it is understood by too few people that we do not have “constitutional" rights. Our rights are not granted by the constitution, nor are they granted or given to us by government. Rather, what we do have, are natural, inherent, God-given rights which are enumerated and guaranteed to The People in the Constitution for the United States. Therefore destruction of even the very last copy of the Constitution for the United States, would be of no effect in diminishing or removing these unalienable rights from The People."

"Those who wish to assert the NIV is an accurate translation of Holy Scripture, should carefully compare and consider the following:
"He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.
Job 26:9 (KJV)
with: "He covers the face of the full moon, spreading his clouds over it.
Job 26:9 (NIV)
The logical conclusion? According to the NIV, the moon is God’s throne. AND it can be logically deduced, those who defend the NIV as God's Word must believe man has (at least figuratively?) conquered God’s throne. Or, did we not plant our flag on the surface of the moon? ~ the Lutheran Watchman ©2015

“They tell us, sir, that we are weak – unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next weak, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs, and hugging the illusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?” – Patrick Henry
