Is This The Most Unconstitutional Law In American History?.....Posted by Michael CHILDS, Admin II on April 24, 2013 at 1:05pm in Patriot Action Alerts


CISPA SC The Most Unconstitutional Law in American History
Last week, while our attention was diverted to the Boston Marathon bombing manhunt, the U.S. House of Representatives snuck in and struck a blow to civil liberties.
They passed new legislation called the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, or CISPA; and it has substantial implications for online freedom. Read More:

The Article V started in 1787 and so there is a lot of opinions out there – IMO most are not based in the actual language contained inside the four corners of the original Constitution. Many sites are selling fear and special interest ideas like a balanced budget, or a Line Item veto, or just rewrite many sections of the Constitution. Most have found little national support or support in the many State Legislatures.
The Article V Project to Restore Liberty is the only REPEAL AMENDMENT movement. If the Amendments that have allowed the Courts, the Executive and the Congress are just repealed it would return the power and the money to the MANY STATES as the Founders intended. No money in Washington means no bribing of voter blocks, no power to reward or penalize industries, no ability to social engineer, they would be forced back under the Articles I – II and III which will result in 10,000 lobbyist getting a PINK SLIP . . like thieves in the night they will be gone.
So, the AV project to Restore is without risk as it take two votes from 38+ State legislatures to pass and then be ratified – both sides of the argument are presented in the Library and other sections. No other Project has the research and fact base that backs and proves the viability of the ideas.
“There is no danger I apprehend so much as the consolidation of our government by the noiseless, and therefore un-alarming, instrumentality of the Supreme Court.” ~Thomas Jefferson

So the Liberal-Neo Communists and their RINO allies ran another knife into the back of America while nobody was looking? Gee, what a surprise. It just goes to show what a complete LIAR and ObamaPhile Weepy-Eyes Boehner is. The man cannot be trusted, he was bought by Obama long ago.
Of the two major political parties, the Republican Party is the greater threat to America. While the DemoCommies are mostly in front of America, the Repugnacrats are behind it, pinning its arms to prevent any real defense and steadily running knife after knife into its back.
This government has been gathering information on us since the Clinton years. It is just now that they have had the balls to actually build an information gathering center out in the open. NSC has made no secret of the facility. If ANYONE in the last thirty years has thought they had any semblance of privacy, it was just a great dream. How well do y’all really know the folk y’all hang out with? We have had satellites since the seventies that could resolve pictures to read a license plate. Who licenses IP addresses? Just who is your server provider if you have a website? How do y’all search the Internet? Privacy has been a fantasy for so long now that even old farts like me can’t even remember the day. President Eisenhower warned all of us in 1960 and we all just said “nah, not HERE!” Even way way before MY time, we created the OSS in WWII. Oh, and, surprise, surprise!! Joe McCarthy was RIGHT about our government being just a satellite of KGB, the State Department especially. Alger Hiss was part of FDR’s FIRST administration in 1933. And he wasn’t tried until the 1950′s, Although he was discovered AFTER WWII. So, we can protest all we want……..

Disciplined 8th-grader Jared Marcum Has More Balls Than Most Americans Three Times His Age

WOWK 13 Charleston, Huntington WV News, Weather, Sports




This 8th-grader is practicing his 1st Amendment by not letting the Communist, Social Democrats, Social State Run Educational system from removing any sense of self determination and expressing his opinion at the STUPIDITY of the New World Order, which Communist in nature.  I admire Jared for not letting the system crack him like the rest of his Brain-washed classmates.  The demonization of gun owners and their families continues to be systematic through out the country.  The State and Federal Governments think they are going to guilt Americans into giving up their guns, they are so naive and idiotic to even think such a thing.  The 2nd Amendment is in the US and all State Constitutions and the right to bare arms, form militias and defend ourselves against all enemies foreign and domestic is a right given by God and reinforced by the Constitution.  Jared I would like say "Keep it up Brother, I got your Six."

GunsAmerica Supports Interstate Tax Bill – 20 Points to Protect 2nd Amendment Freedom by GUNSAMERICA ACTUAL on APRIL 23, 2013


Hold your rotten tomatoes for a minute ok. There are important reasons why we need to level the playing field when it comes to internet sales, and gun sales in particular. I will primarily address guns. But beware that this isn’t a “soundbyte” explanation. Our attention spans have grown so thin that anything longer than a Facebook status tends to fall on deaf ears, and lazy readers. If you care about the future of 2nd Amendment freedom, you should support a nationwide internet sales tax. It will force merchants to do some work collecting taxes for states in which they do not reside, but remember, these are internet merchants who have very little if any other overhead. We have organized 20 points, but they are not to be taken individually. However you can jump to the end if you have to check your Facebook.
  1. Guns are mostly commoditized. Except for rare instances like we what we just experienced after Sandy Hook, everyone knows what guns go for, and rarely if ever does the actual retail price of a new firearm waver by more than 5%.
  2. Guns are a unique product, in that not only can they only be sold by licensed dealers who need a physical location for their business, there is no instance where a gun can be shipped for transfer to anyone but an actual dealer. Guns can never be shipped to the door of an unlicensed person.
  3. With guns, for over a decade now, consumers have treated the interstate sales tax exemption as a “replacement” for having to pay a transfer fee to their local dealer. They are oftentimes close in cost.
  4. This has led to “online gun retailers” who are able to charge a very low margin for their guns, because they do not have to finance the overhead of inventory, like you find in a stocked brick and mortar store.
  5. Brick and mortar stores are unable to compete with retailers that have no comparable overhead of inventory and employees.
  6. This has, in normal times of demand for guns, led to a “race to the bottom” with gun prices. But even in the recent artificial boom, it was mostly the brick and mortar stores that did not charge a premium for guns that were in danger of being banned.
  7. Local stocking gun dealers have become internet showrooms for guns, with many savvy consumers going to the stores to fondle the guns, then buying them online, only to ship them to a local “tabletop dealer” who carries an FFL license for a hobby.
  8. Stocking dealers do make money from transfers as well, but this is not close to anything resembling a “standard retail margin” of 20% – 50% that you see in most other retail environments. Margin for other retail hobbies, like bikes, boats, musical instruments, camping gear and even scrapbooking is in the 50% range.
  9. All of those industries have reacted to online sales with what is called “MAP” or “Minimum Advertised Price” to protect their brick and mortar stores. Except for a few gun companies, by and large the gun industry has not protected their stocking gun dealers in this manner, because we use a middle tier of distribution that is outside the control of the manufacturers themselves.
  10. Some of these wholesale distribution companies have been using direct online sales to consumers to drop ship guns for some of the more recognized online retailers.
  11. If you can imagine this with the only other product that must be shipped to a licensed “dealer,” pharmaceuticals, this would be like Pfizer allowing their warehouses to send your Lipitor to a neighbor tabletop dealer so you can avoid the sales tax at Walgreens.
  12. The difference is that the pharmaceutical industry is mostly made up of huge corporations, whereas the FFL gun dealers are for the most part Mom and Pop stores, or at best a small chain. Even our biggest chains like Cabelas only have stores numbering only in the dozens.
  13. Also, pharmaceuticals can be bought over state lines, whereas guns cannot in the case of handguns Federally, and many states prohibit the purchase of any guns outside the state at all.
  14. This is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the legal disadvantages that a gun dealer has as compared to other forms of retail. The BATFE can walk into a gun dealer at any time, with no appointment, and completely examine all records. Gun dealers have been forced to close for such things as abbreviating state names and allowing customers to use a middle initial instead of a full middle name. These particular issues have eased in past years, but abuses of gun dealers happen all the time without consumers ever knowing about them.
  15. WITHOUT ACTUAL BRICK AND MORTAR GUN DEALERS, YOU CAN’T BUY GUNS! Since the Gun Control Act of 1968, unlicensed individuals cannot sell guns as a business. Buyers have to fill out a form, #4473, that has to be kept on file at the dealer, and now the dealers have to perform background checks.
  16. You may feel that we only need “transfer dealers,” but if you look back to 1993, when the Brady Bill came into effect, we went from 300,000 gun dealers to under 50,000 almost overnight. This was caused by an increase in the FFL license fee from $30 to $600, and having to make a phone call (NICS) to sell a gun.
  17. If the FFL fee was again multiplied by 20x, or even 5x, the vast majority of remaining “tabletop” local dealers would shed their license. All that will be left standing are the brick and mortar dealers. This type of legislation could be passedOVERNIGHT right now with zero repercussions, and don’t think GunsAmerica is the only people who have thought this up. Bloomberg has a plan, and it is a virtual guarantee that something in that plan is going to create more hoops and expenses for FFL gun dealers.
  18. Before this crazy demand created by first the re-election of President Obama then Sandy Hook, gun dealers were fighting to keep their doors open. Demand had sunk to a low after the artificial boom of demand created by the 2008 elections, and a lot of big gun shops closed, unable to compete with online retailers while maintaining a respectable level of inventory and employees. Overall, gun sales were up, but a lot of this growth came from online. Growth in guns since 2008 was squandered on retailers that contribute little to the NRA, NSSF and the overall infrastructure of the gun purchase process itself, at the expense of brick and mortar dealers who generally do.
  19. Because our manufacturers and distributors have not been able to agree on a MAP pricing system like other retail industries, guns have become a devalued product, going for much less than they should with proper retail margins. There are most likely less man-hours of work that go into a Cannondale bicycle or a Gibson guitar than a Ruger firearm, yet the Ruger Firearm is 1/4 the price of the bike and the guitar. Cannondale and Gibson both have very strict MAP.
  20. Gun dealers have to exist if we want to buy guns . Stocking dealers are the only FFL dealers who will be around should the government raise FFL fees and record keeping requirements. The gun industry has no MAP to protect its brick and mortar retailers. We must remove the additional sales tax incentive to buying guns online instead of at our local stocking gun dealers.
You see, save your tomatoes for Bloomberg. This is a fairly cut and dried case for guns. And as for the rest of retail, again, remember that online retailers have no other real overhead, and it won’t kill them to play on a level playing field when it comes to taxes. We all pay taxes, and the states have been getting killed by the loss in revenue from online sales, while Ebay sellers, Amazon, Newegg and Buds flourish in low rent warehouse districts. Guns are one of the few things we buy that are mostly made in America, but a good percentage of America’s GDP consists of selling crap made outside the US to each other. Sales tax, for the last five years or more, has been unfairly weighted on the not so internet savvy, and these are usually the elderly and less well off in our society. The time has come for this to change and for everyone to pay their fair share of state tax burden that is based in sale tax.
America could eliminate income tax and sales tax entirely and put tariffs on foreign goods, the same tariffs that those countries put on our goods. But that would be a real benefit to working class Americans, and the politicians certainly don’t want that. A level playing field for sales tax is a start, and it might help our state governments get out of bankruptcy, while bringing fairness in paying sales tax to all ages and classes of Americans. But it is time to level the whole playing field, and bring real jobs back to America for good. End the failed free trade agreements. Tax foreign made goods. Slash corporate regulation and fees, and let America go back to work.
