2-22-1867: “There is hardly a solitary amendment of the constitution, whether relating to free press . . . to bearing arms . . . that this military bill does not utterly and shamelessly disregard. . . . the congress of the United States would enslave a whole people lest a few lawless men should go unpunished.”

The Memphis Daily Appeal, “There is hardly a solitary amendment of the constitution, whether relating to free press, to free speech, to the right of assemblage, to freedom of person or from search, to presentment by a grand jury or a jury trial, to bearing arms, or the reserved rights of the people, that this military bill does not utterly and shamelessly disregard. . . . the congress of the United States would enslave a whole people lest a few lawless men should go unpunished.”, Feb. 22, 1867

2-21-1867: "who wantonly trample upon the freedom of speech, the press and right of free assemblage; who, denying the right of the people to bear arms . . . under the garb of legitimate power boldly announce and carry out the rankest treason….”

The Southerner, “The whole civilized world will view with abhorence and stand aghast, in this enlightened age, at the barbarity of men, who substitute for law the caprice of an officer . . . who wantonly trample upon the freedom of speech, the press and right of free assemblage; who, denying the right of the people to bear arms . . . under the garb of legitimate power boldly announce and carry out the rankest treason….”, Feb. 21, 1867

Why didn't the [treasonous] supreme court recognize the "shall NOT be infringed" aspect of our right?

   The Usurpreme Kourt has recognized and half-assed admitted the pre-existing right of We The People to keep and bear arms. [Not so] Funny how they failed [once AGAIN] to address the "shall NOT be infringed" aspect concerning that right, ISN'T IT? They declared that the previous infringements have their blessing. And they are now refusing to hear anything more about new infringements. Thus the Kourt is proving that it is complicit in the conspiracy to deprive, bit by bit, We The People of our Constitutionally secured right.

   Do these lofty TRAITORS think that We The People are imbeciles?

   Do these hired servants in black robes actually think that We The People are fooled by their side-stepping treachery?

2-20-1867: “the bill . . . It infringes the right of the people to bear arms: . . . All this, that a band of infernal conspirators worthy only of penal colonies, the bastile and the gallows, may perpetuate their accidental power . . . HOW LONG–WE MAY ASK, HOW LONG WILL THE PEOPLE WAIT?“

The Daily Empire, “the bill . . . It infringes the right of the people to bear arms: . . . All this, that a band of infernal conspirators worthy only of penal colonies, the bastile and the gallows, may perpetuate their accidental power, and execute their malevolent will. HOW LONG–WE MAY ASK, HOW LONG WILL THE PEOPLE WAIT?“, Feb. 20, 1867

2-14-1867: “Such a bill makes a mockery of free institutions. . . . It annihilates the right of free assemblage. It silences the lips of free speech. It infringes the right of the people to bear arms. . . . it makes war upon the Constitution . . . It invades the sacred constitutional rights of the citizen. It is treason enveloped in the forms of law...."

Alexandria Gazette, “Such a bill makes a mockery of free institutions. . . . It annihilates the right of free assemblage. It silences the lips of free speech. It infringes the right of the people to bear arms. . . . it makes war upon the Constitution . . . It invades the sacred constitutional rights of the citizen. It is treason enveloped in the forms of law. It is rebellion wearing the garb of legitimate power. It is usurpation assuming the sanctity of constitutional enactment.”, Feb. 14, 1867

1-31-1867: “We have the right to bear arms and the right to form military associations to instruct ourselves in the use of them. . . . if Congress is confronted with an armed organization . . . it will desist from its wicked machinations….”

St. Mary’s Gazette, “We have the right to bear arms and the right to form military associations to instruct ourselves in the use of them. . . . “To be ready for battle,” says a quaint writer, “maketh an enemy to consider,” and we cannot doubt, if Congress is confronted with an armed organization, such as we have proposed, and for the purpose we have named, it will desist from its wicked machinations….”, Jan. 31, 1867

   That same sentiment would also rightly apply to executive wicked machinations....
