As if we don't need any more proof that the American CIVIL LIBERTIES Union is a fraud, and another left wing socialist organization that we cannot trust, here is their opinion of OUR Second Amendment right of CIVIL LIBERTY.

You are NOT going to believe it .......

Second Amendment


Updated: 7/8/2008
The Second Amendment provides: "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."

ACLU POSITION
Given the reference to "a well regulated Militia" and "the security of a free State," the ACLU has long taken the position that the Second Amendment protects a collective right rather than an individual right. For seven decades, the Supreme Court's 1939 decision in United States v. Miller was widely understood to have endorsed that view.

The Supreme Court has now ruled otherwise. In striking down Washington D.C.'s handgun ban by a 5-4 vote, the Supreme Court's 2008 decision in D.C. v. Heller held for the first time that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to keep and bear arms, whether or not associated with a state militia.

The ACLU disagrees with the Supreme Court's conclusion about the nature of the right protected by the Second Amendment. We do not, however, take a position on gun control itself. In our view, neither the possession of guns nor the regulation of guns raises a civil liberties issue.

ANALYSIS
Although ACLU policy cites the Supreme Court's decision in U.S. v. Miller as support for our position on the Second Amendment, our policy was never dependent on Miller. Rather, like all ACLU policies, it reflects the ACLU's own understanding of the Constitution and civil liberties.

Heller takes a different approach than the ACLU has advocated. At the same time, it leaves many unresolved questions, including what firearms are protected by the Second Amendment, what regulations (short of an outright ban) may be upheld, and how that determination will be made.

Those questions will, presumably, be answered over time.
They wouldn't understand the Constitution even if it bit them in the A: censored !! They completely ignore the "Right of the People to keep and bear arms, shall NOT be infringed " section of the Second Amendment.

These people will allow the United States Constitution to be trashed unless they are stopped by Congress, the US Court System, or pitchforks and torches.

TampaSsgt,

Let me know when you folks in Fla. want to learn pitchfork skills. I'd be quite happy to fight with pitchforks if that was all that was left.

This administration is going to be the start of a revolut--ion or it's going to be the end of America as it has been and as we think of it with no rights and only subjects.

I'm telling ya Brownie ... I read this stuff and I just shake my head. It is becoming more and more obvious what the left is up to. We need to hold on until the 2010 elections, then we can regain control of the House and the Senate. Then by 2012, the Messiah will have screwed this country up so badly that we can win back the White House.

If we don't, I believe all bets may be off of the table, and our options will become fewer and fewer.

Watch the NWO members like Kisinger very closely. They know the time is now with this administration if they are ever going to make the US part of their plans to control the world.

I hope it doesn't come to americans fighting americans or UN troops, but it doesn't look good right now. Things can become unstable in the country over night, and that's when they'll move, under the cover of darkness. You'll wake up some morning, and there'll be roadblocks and checkpoints established and the party begins.

If Congress and the US court system fails us, i don,t know about you, but i have a pitchfork or two and a couple of coleman fueled lamps (very flammable).:drinks

The United States has already found out that the majority of the military would not fire on american citizens.....I wonder if anyone has polled the americans on whether they would fire on our hugely popular Congress and Senate and the Supreme Court if there was a peasant uprising?????:smack

I wonder how they would like the results?:rolf

The ACLU cannot be taken at their word, since they cling to this ridiculous 'collective' right theory about the 2nd Amendment, despite all the historical evidence and scholarly review to the contrary. They're willing to sacrifice integrity and intellectual honesty to pursue a leftist political agenda (hell, the founders of the ACLU were self-avowed Communists), so they can go pound sand for all I care. :thumbsdwn

If we're reduced to fighting with pitchforks, I'll probably already be dead. :doh
