> OUTRAGE:  Chicago Gun Ban UPHELD;
>     Court says "Heller" ruling by Supreme Court
>          not applicable to states or municipalities !

> June 2 (TRN) -- American gun owners have been put in spectacular jeopardy by a
> federal court ruling that enables states or cities to ban all -- ALL --
> firearms ownership! A Chicago ordinance banning handguns and automatic weapons
> within city limits was upheld by a U.S. Court of Appeals panel, which rejected
> a challenge by the National Rifle Association.

> Right about now, you're probably thinking these Judges are liberal, activist
> Judges. Not true. One was appointed by Gerald Ford, the other two by Ronald
> Reagan.

> The unanimous three-judge panel ruled today that a U.S. Supreme Court decision
> last year, in the case "District of Columbia v. Heller, 128 S. Ct. 2783
> (2008)" which recognized an individual right to bear arms under the U.S.
> Constitution’s Second Amendment, doesn’t apply to states and municipalities.

> The court said the Heller case dealt with laws passed under federal authority,
> not state authority. As such an individual's federal "right to keep and bear
> arms" not not extend to rights under state or local laws!

> That's not all. The Decision by the court states that "some" of the first 10
> Amendments to the Constitution (Commonly known as "The Bill of Rights") "do
> not apply to the states" while others, do!

> Lastly, the Court ruling says that ideals that were important in the 1780's
> when the Constitution was adopted, should give way to more contemporary views.

> COMMENTARY:

> This is the most spectacular act of judicial malfeasance I have ever
> witnessed. Yes, I said malfeasance (intentionally bad) rather than misfeasance
> (accidentally bad).

> The Supreme Court interpretation of the Second Amendment is what overturned
> the gun ban in Washington DC. Whoever enacted that law mattered not. A "ban"
> on gun possession was unconstitutional, period.

> Chicago has a ban on gun ownership and based upon the interpretation of the
> Second Amendment in the Washington, DC case, a ban is still Unconstitutional
> -- no matter who enacted such a ban.

> For these Judges to say a ban by the feds is unconstitutional under the Second
> Amendment but a ban by the states is permissible under that same Second
> Amendment, is not only absurd, it puts every gun owner in the nation at risk
> of his own state or local government banning gun ownership.

> Instead of peaceful gun-rights efforts targeted at a single entity, the U.S.
> Congress, the political battlefield has just been opened to 50 state
> legislatures , 3,141 counties and county equivalents within the 50 States and
> the District of Columbia. They are categorized as follows:
> 3,007 entities named “County”
> 16 Boroughs in Alaska
> 11 Census Areas in Alaska (for areas not organized into Boroughs by the State)
> 64 Parishes in Louisiana
> 42 Independent Cities (1 in Maryland, 1 in Missouri, 1 in Nevada, and the
> remainder in Virginia)
> 1 District - the Federal District or District of Columbia.

> It gets worse. Inside those counties are:

> 19,429 municipalities;
> 16,504 townships;
> 35,052 special districts; and
> 13,506 independent school districts.

> Do the math and you now find that instead of having to deal with one national
> political entity, Congress, Gun owners must now face off with around 78,000
> other governments at the state, county and municipal level. How's THAT for
> stacking the deck against us?

> This decision by the Seventh U.S. Circuit court of Appeals was absolutely
> political in its intent. It was specifically designed to break apart the
> "powerful gun lobby" and force us to square off with tens of thousands of
> additional government bodies.

> We law-abiding gun owners defeated the opponents at the national level and now
> this single court has changed the rules. Now, instead of one national
> political target, we have just been put potentially at odds with literally
> tens of thousands of other governments!

> The federal Judges at both the District Court and now at the Federal Circuit
> Court of Appeals have intentionally ignored the common language of the Second
> Amendment and have now intentionally ignored a clear ruling by the US Supreme
> Court on the matter.

> All the years of peaceful legal challenges; all the years of peaceful appeals;
> all the years of peacefully and lawfully lobbying federal and state
> legislators, to achieve the penultimate goal of finally interpreting the
> meaning of the Second Amendment, only to have it all thrown in the trash by
> three Appellate Judges in a manner so sleazy and cunning as to deserve the
> ultimate response.

> This is what happens folks, when YOU play by the rules. Government does not.

> This is what happens when YOU have faith in the system. The government laughs
> at your blissful ignorance.

> This is what happens when YOU believe the government is honorable. Our present
> government is not.

> The government - and especially these three Judges - are cunning, ruthless,
> untrustworthy, disloyal, unpatriotic, deceitful scum. Their entire reason for
> existing is to accrue unto themselves, power over everything.

> The only thing that has ever stood in the way of their achieving ultimate
> power is the fact that We The People have guns. Now, that is very much in
> jeopardy.

> Government lies, cheats, manipulates, twists and outright disobeys the supreme
> law and founding documents of this land because they have not, in our
> lifetime, faced REAL free men willing to walk up to them and kill them for
> their defiance and disobedience.

> Thomas Jefferson, one of our Founding Fathers, told us "The tree of liberty
> must be replenished from time to time with the blood of tyrants and patriots."
> It is time to replenish the tree!

> Let me be the first to say this plainly: These Judges deserve to be killed.
> Their blood will replenish the tree of liberty. A small price to pay to assure
> freedom for millions.

> This is not the first politically-motivated trash to come out of the Seventh
> U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. In fact, it was the Seventh U.S. Circuit Court
> of Appeals that decided in the Matt Hale Case, that a group which fraudulently
> trademarked the name "World Church of the Creator" despite the fact they knew
> that name had been used by a Church for 30 years, could KEEP the name because
> the church who had used it for 30 years didn't challenge the Trademark filing!

> By not challenging the Trademark registration, the people who had used the
> name for years LOST IT.

> That decision lead to an order by a lower court for the Church to "surrender
> its Bibles for destruction because they infringed on the trademark" given to
> the fraudsters.

> Shortly thereafter, a gunman entered the home of that lower court Judge and
> slaughtered the Judge's mother and husband. Apparently, the 7th U.S. Circuit
> court didn't get the hint after those killings. It appears another lesson is
> needed.

> These Judges are traitors to the United States of America. They have
> intentionally violated the Constitution. They have now also intentionally
> ignored a major ruling by the US Supreme Court.

> If they are allowed to get away with this by surviving, other Judges will act
> the same way.

> These Judges deserve to made such an example of as to send a message to the
> entire judiciary: Obey the Constitution or die.
