Guess what they’re talking about on the AR15 Forum?

Every second spent on an AR-15 forum is a wasted second you’ll never recover.
 
A new triathalon is needed. MIT issues a certificate as Pirate for completing courses in archery, pistol shooting, sailing and fencing. Those could work for a PIRACY gold medal. The hot new TRI-IT-ALL competition could include curling, AR-15 marksmanship, and naked pole-dancing. How well would the Tonga team perform?
 
Once the King's subjects in his American colony of Virginia finally got totally fed up with his statist crap, they immediately quit remitting the taxation he demanded out of them; they also immediately stopped using all "legal" imports because the King controlled all trade/commerce in his American colonies, too. As the legal assemblies of his subjects all over America continued to thwart against him, the King ordered all those previous legal assemblies as suddnely "illegal", ordered more British troops to his American colonies to enforce that ban and to help facilitate better the collection of taxes...

...and decreed that any of his subjects in America who refused to submit was now legally liable to be arrested, chained, and shipped to London to stand trial for treason, and, if convicted, be executed.

Good times!

So, what did some of the His Majesty's subjects then do? Why, they dared to call for what's known today as the First Continental Congress, to secretly, illegally discuss what the King's colonies in America should do next to address the King's stepped-up actions against his subjects...

Some of the Kings subjects in America, perhaps most exquisitely represented by "the Oracle of Nature", Virginia's Patrick Henry, knew immediately then that any future debating/discussion with the King was useless and it was inevitable that Americans would have to defend their thoughts of freedom against him: Henry championed starting to organize, arm, and train local militias against any offensive military aggression by his government, in every colony, clearly perceiving the future.

Another famous Virginian, George Washington (not yet "General"), wasn't quite as sure as Henry: he sat on the fence between whether discussion/negotiation with the King would succeed, or not.

Still another famous Virginian, Richard Henry Lee, was convinced that further logical, well-intentioned discussion/negotiation with the King would serve the American colonies' futures best.

Regardless of their differing viewpoints, they and the majority of the rest of the First Continental Congress adjourned still adamant with resisting what they tagged the King's unconstitutional actions upon his own subjects...

...and once the King was made aware of the secret, illegal meeting of that first congress, he ordered even more British troops to America to FORCEFULLY dissuade its results. And that's all it took for more colonies to attune to Henry's viewpoint that hostilities were inevitable. But none of them, yet, had began practically preparing for that possibility...

Except in Hanover County, Virginia, where, in November 1774, less than a month after the First Continental Congress adjourned, Patrick Henry organized Virginia's first independent military company in specific answer to the King's actions: the Hanover Volunteers. Other localities in the other British colonies took note, and many began their own preparations to organize their own well-regulated militias: fully manned, fully armed, fully munitioned, and fully trained by individual Americans themselves.

(Locals in the colonies had "militia"-type collectives before, but those were for general/community protection against on-going Indian attacks - not in defense against arguably the world's mightiest military force at the time: their own King's).

One of those localities that no doubt took serious note of Henry's doing was Lexington, in the British colony of Massachusetts...

In February 1775, the King had declared the entire colony of Massachusetts to be in full rebellion, with all rebels to be captured and tried. The next month, in March and in direct answer to the King, the Massachusetts Provincial Congress, itself illegally meeting in treasonous secret, issued the following directive to all MA militias now obviously gearing-up at faster speed:

Whenever the army under command of General Gage, or any part thereof to the number of five hundred, shall march out of the town of Boston, with artillery and baggage, it ought to be deemed a design to carry into execution by force the late acts of Parliament, the attempting of which, by the resolve of the late honourable Continental Congress, ought to be opposed; and therefore the military force of the Province ought to be assembled, and an army of observation immediately formed, to act solely on the defensive so long as it can be justified on the principles of reason and self-preservation.

There were no two treasonous rebels in Massachusetts the King wished captured more than Samuel Adams and John Hancock. A secret (or so the British thought) British military plan was drawn-up to both chase down the evasive Adams and Hancock and arrest them for trial, while also capturing and destroying what the British tagged a significant militia munitions supply in Concord, Massachusetts. 700 of General Gage's British Regulars - fully locked and loaded - set-off out of Boston to complete that mission. Alas, what they hadn't planned for before they could get to Concord, was what happened first in Lexington...

...where, around sunrise on April 19, 1775 - just 5 months after Patrick Henry organized the colonies' first militia directly to defend against the King's inevitable military aggression against his own subjects - those 700 British Regulars ran smack-dab into the vastly outnumbered and under armspowered Lexington militia, who purposely stood their ground, not with any fantasy of defeating or even stopping the British horde, but simply to delay the Regulars' march to Concord, giving their American militia brethren there more time to keep moving the munitions stockpile elsewhere, and to prepare for the coming British troops...

Of course, the rest is glorious, world revolutionary history, but suffice it to say that the next month, when the Second Continental Congress convened just 21 days after Lexington and "the shot heard round the world", no longer was there too much talk about debate/discussion/negotiation, rather, the talk was almost all about how to further effectively overthrow their own government's UNCONSTITUTIONAL rule over them, instead of their government being as equally under the rule of law as they.

Patrick Henry had been right all along; George Washington got off his fence to militarily lead America against Britain's King in Revolutionary War, and Richard Henry Lee, who was confident after the First Continental Congress that talking respectively with each other - the rebellious colonists and their King - could solve the issue?

Fourteen months after Lexington/Concord, on June 7, 1776, the Second Continental Congress in session, Lee offered the following:

Resolved, That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.

That it is expedient forthwith to take the most effectual measures for forming foreign Alliances.

That a plan of confederation be prepared and transmitted to the respective Colonies for their consideration and approbation.

After a few weeks of arguably some of the most relevant political discussion/debate to world history, on July 2, 1776, the Second Continental Congress voted 12-0 (NY abstaining) in favor of Lee's resolution, thus officially severing America from its previous government. Two days later, of course, on July 4, 1776, The Declaration of the unanimous thirteen united States of America was published for all the world to hear and read.

(NY had "officially" abstained from voting on July 2 until their newly elected State Convention would approve Lee's resolution a week later on July 9, 1776).




Now, about Amendment II and specifically why the folks who illegally plotted against their own government, who illegally assembled and rebelled against their own government, and who illegally warred against their own government so successfully that their illegally declared and total independence was finally recognized as LEGAL by the entire world, including, of course, its previous government that had legally RULED fully over it for 176 years...

Why - possibly - would those very same Americans then COMMAND all government under its new Constitution that no government shall infringe on any law-abiding American's unalienable (natural, above the purview of government) right to keep and bear arms?

Huh. That sure is a toughy to figure out...

:rolleyes:

Statist government since has been so successful at totally brainwashing its American socialist lemmings, that those poor, pathetic, completely ignornant souls today truly believe government is still the very King of its political food chain, when America's founders and framers constituted that ALL government serves under its Constitution, that inalienable individual liberty is the very purpose government is formed to guarantee...

...and Amendment II is there to remind any government (and/or its lemmings) of that - AGAIN.
