Second Amendment and Obama

Let's write to Congress! (www.congress.org or contactingthecongress.org)
Emails really do make a difference!

Dear Representative:

The Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States says:

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall NOT be infringed."  [Emphasis added]

The role, duties, authority, and limitations of the office of President are defined in the Constitution as the head of the Executive Branch of the Government.  As such, the President's job is to enforce the laws enacted by the Legislative Branch and the President's oath of office is to "PRESERVE, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States." [Emphasis added]  President Obama's unconstitutional legislation via Executive Orders is outside the scope of his authority and needs to be challenged by the Congress and in the courts.  An Executive Order nullifying the Second Amendment requires swift action from you. 

The reason for the Second Amendment is contained within the Second Amendment, ". . . being necessary to the security of a free state . . ."  It is another of those Constitutionally-protected God-given rights of the people to protect themselves against tyranny in government.  Such self-preservation is the ensuring of ones life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness which our Declaration of Independence declares and our Constitution champions.  This self-preservation is not only done with weapons, but the Second Amendment secures the right to self-defense with equal force to tyrannical governmental actions.  History has shown that disarming citizens is one of the first steps in an oppressive takeover.  Indeed, Stalin murdered 20 million of his own citizens who refused to give up their arms.  Let's not allow even the provocation of such action in this country.

For this cause, and all the other unconstitutional actions by President Obama, articles of impeachment need to be written up and legislation needs to be enacted repealing/striking down any and all Executive Orders in opposition to the Constitution of the United States.  Are you willing to once again do your job?
