MISSOURI COUNTY PASSES ORDINANCE CALLING FOR ARREST OF FEDS WHO ENFORCE UNCONSTITUTIONAL GUN LAWS — THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT
One southwest county in Missouri has a message for Joe Biden and his Democrat gun grabbers: ‘Don’t try that s**t here.’
the Newton County Commission passed an ordinance Feb. 3 that both blocks the implementation of unconstitutional federal gun control laws but also makes it a crime to try to enforce them.
“This is our recourse,” Daniel Horowitz writes at The Blaze.
He explains:
What is our recourse when our own government criminalizes our most basic rights while it allows Black Lives Matter and Antifa to rampage through our streets with impunity? Is there no Plan B when the federal or state governments treat all conservatives like terrorists, business owners like pariahs, and those who yearn to breathe unmasked air like murderers? Well, one Missouri county is demonstrating the importance of sheriffs and county officials returning to self-government and interposing between the governmental usurpers and the most sacred rights of the people.On Feb. 3, the Newton County, Missouri, Commission passed a bill that will not only block federal enforcement of unconstitutional gun policies, but criminalize their implantation thereof within the jurisdiction of the county. The “Second Amendment Preservation Act of Newton County Missouri” declares that “all federal acts, laws, orders, rules, and regulations passed by the federal government and specifically any Presidential Administration whether past, present, or future, which infringe on the people’s right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article I, Section 23 of the Missouri Constitution shall be invalid in the county.” …
The Newton ordinance was signed by commissioners Bill Reiboldt, Alan Cook, and David Osborn on Feb. 3 and is effective immediately.
The relevant section of the Missouri Constitution says: “That the right of every citizen to keep and bear arms, ammunition, and accessories typical to the normal function of such arms, in defense of his home, person, family and property, or when lawfully summoned in aid of the civil power, shall not be questioned. The rights guaranteed by this section shall be unalienable. Any restriction on these rights shall be subject to strict scrutiny and the state of Missouri shall be obligated to uphold these rights and shall under no circumstances decline to protect against their infringement.”
“Specifically, the ordinance targets federal policies that order the tracking or registering of firearms of ammunition, an idea that Democrats have been floating recently. It also bars the enforcement of any effort to confiscate guns except from those who are ‘suspected criminals,'” Horowitz notes.
He also points out that the Newton County ordinance is the latest stand taken by patriots around the country who have formed so-called “Second Amendment sanctuaries” along the lines of the Democratic left’s “sanctuary cities,” enclaves where local and state officials have vowed to not allow federal enforcement of immigration laws.
Horowitz further notes:
Specifically, section 4a of the Newton County ordinance grants the sheriff’s department “full authority to make an arrest of any and all federal agents that violate state laws and enforce regulations” that violate the Second Amendment. Finally, the ordinance bars anyone “who enforces or attempts to enforce...
Michigan Ammo Company Announces No Tolerance Policy for Joe Biden Voters
Biden vote = no ammo.
Michigan ammunition manufacturing company Fenix Ammunition announced a no tolerance policy relating to sales to Joe Biden voters on Thursday, sending left-wingers up in arms over the consequences of their own actions.
Customers who use Fenix Ammo’s website are asked to affirm that they didn’t vote for Joe Biden when making a purchase. The Novi company primarily sells ammunition online.
Fenix’s owners cited Biden’s pledge to criminalize online sales of ammunition as justification for the no tolerance policy. If Biden enacted such a gun control measure, it would destroy Fenix’s business, as well as many other smaller manufacturers of ammunition that lack the capability to compete with outdoors franchises. Guns and ammunition are one of the few industries in the country still defined by small and medium business, with globalist corporations notoriously opposed to the concept of everyday citizens owning guns.
Need Ammo? Buy It HERE
Fenix went on to explain the policy on Twitter, explaining that its customers can’t expect to support measures that would destroy the business while expecting to be served.
The policy has been met with a surge of interest and sales from the Second Amendment community. Fenix sold out its latest production batch of 9mm ammunition in less than a hour today, and overwhelming demand for ammo continues to sell out every form of...
4 Takeaways From Democrats’ Second Full Day of Arguments to Disqualify Trump
In a second full day of making their case for disqualifying Donald Trump from running again for president, House Democrats reminded the Senate of the Charlottesville riot in 2017 and a plot last year to kidnap Michigan’s governor.
The nine House impeachment managers, or prosecutors, kept most of the focus Thursday on a mob’s Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, but also brought up some of Trump’s comments as a candidate for president in 2015.
The House impeached Trump on a single charge of incitement to insurrection, and Democrats sought to establish a pattern of incitement to convince senators to convict the 45th president and disqualify him from holding a future federal office.
House impeachment managers also said more than once that the cost of beefed-up, militarized security for the Capitol is expected to cost taxpayers $480 million through mid-March. The Democrats argued that the presence of National Guard troops and perimeter fencing was a result of the riot they allege Trump incited.
It would take the votes of 67 senators, or a two-thirds majority, to convict Trump. If Democrats reached that threshold, it would take only a simple majority vote to disqualify Trump from holding federal office again.
The prosecution and the defense each have up to 16 hours to make their case at the Senate impeachment trial, for which Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., not a federal judge, is presiding.
The House prosecution team wrapped up before 4:30 p.m. with about five hours left. Trump’s lawyers are set to begin making their case Friday, and reportedly will spend only that one day making their case.
Here are key highlights from the third day of Trump’s historic second impeachment trial, which also is the first such trial of a former president.
1. ‘Message’ of U.S. Adversaries
China, Russia, and Iran seized on the riot at the Capitol to mock America’s commitment to democracy and human rights, Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, told senators, directing their attention to large screens showing quotes from officials of foreign governments.
“What message will we send the rest of the world? We already know the message some of our adversaries took from Jan. 6,” Castro said.
After reading off several examples of talking points from America’s enemies, he said: “We cannot let them use what happened on Jan. 6 to define us, who we are and what we stand for.”
U.S. intelligence agencies are working to determine how many intelligence documents may have been stolen as rioters stormed the building, some leaving with laptops and documents stolen from members of Congress who are privy to classified information, Castro said.
The attack also demonstrated to terrorists that federal buildings are vulnerable, he argued.
“We have spent trillions of dollars building the strongest military in the world, and billions of dollars on the most sophisticated weaponry on the planet, to prevent the kind of attack that occurred at this Capitol on Jan. 6,” Castro said.
2. ‘Most Violent … So Far’
Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., leader of the impeachment managers, called the mob’s attack on the Capitol the “culmination of the president’s actions.”
“The insurrection was the most violent and dangerous episode so far in Donald Trump’s continuing pattern and practice of inciting violence, but I emphasize so far,” Raskin said.
A mob began breaking into the Capitol while Trump continued to address supporters in a rally just south of the White House, using the word “fight” as Congress was meeting in joint session to certify what Trump called a “stolen” election.
The Maryland Democrat said Trump has stirred supporters to violence in the past with a “wink and nod,” not a direct order, he argued.
Raskin warned senators of the potential consequences of allowing Trump to become president again:
Is there any political leader in this room who believes that, if he is ever allowed by the Senate to get back into the Oval Office, Donald Trump would stop inciting violence to get his way? Would you bet the lives of more police officers on that? Would you bet the safety of your family on that? Would you bet the future of your democracy on that? … If he gets back into office and it happens again, we’ll have no one to blame but ourselves.
Raskin added: “If you don’t find this a high crime and misdemeanor today, you have set a new, terrible standard for presidential misconduct in the United States of America.”
The outcome of the riot and breach of the Capitol could have been far worse, as some in the mob openly talked of killing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, then-Vice President Mike Pence, and other members of Congress, Rep. David Cicilline, D-R.I., argued.
“What if President Trump had been successful? What if he had succeeded in overturning the will of the people and our constitutional processes?” Cicilline said. “Who among us is willing to risk that outcome by letting Trump’s constitutional crimes go unanswered?”
3. Recalling Charlottesville
Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Colo., delivered a presentation that included video of violence during the 2017 riot in Charlottesville, Virginia, in which white nationalists clashed with the leftist extremist group Antifa.
“I’d argue we’re not just back where we were,” DeGette told senators. “I would argue things are worse. In 2017, it was unfathomable to most of us to think that Charlottesville could happen.”
Cicilline said many of the Capitol rioters apparently were white nationalists who carried Confederate flags and harassed black police officers and janitorial staff with racial epithets.
“And then after all that, these same workers, many of them people of color, were forced to clean up the mess left by mobs of white nationalists,” Cicilline said, adding:
One member of the janitorial staff reflected how terrible he felt when he had to clean up feces that had been smeared on the wall, blood of a rioter who had died, broken glass, and other objects strewn all over the floor. He said, ‘I felt bad. I felt degraded.’
4. ‘Donald Trump Sent Them’
DeGette showed images of rioters on large screens and asked rhetorically, “Looking at these people makes you...
