Just wanted to clarify something: The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution
of the United States really only says that Americans have the right to
"keep" (collect, and maybe shoot the breeze online about) firearms but
didn't actually MEAN the part about "bearing" (using) them to thwart the
machinations of tyrants?

No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.


-- Thomas Jefferson


The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear
arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in
government.


-- Thomas Jefferson


I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied
corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by
strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.


-- Thomas Jefferson


As our enemies have found we can reason like men, so now let us show them
we can fight like men also.


-- Thomas Jefferson


To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he
disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

：How Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico；
By John Dillin
http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/0706/p09s01-coop.html


Excerpt:


：General Eisenhower ... quoted a report in The New York Times,
highlighting one paragraph that said: ．The rise in illegal
border-crossing
by Mexican 'wetbacks' to a current rate of more than
1,000,000 cases a year has been accompanied by a curious relaxation
in ethical standards extending all the way from the farmer-exploiters
of this contraband labor to the highest levels of the Federal
Government ..."


：Herbert Brownell Jr., Eisenhower's first attorney general, said the
president had a sense of urgency about illegal immigration when he took
office.


：America ．was faced with a breakdown in law enforcement on a very large
scale,・ Mr. Brownell said. ．When I say large scale, I mean hundreds of
thousands were coming in from Mexico [every year] without restraint.・"

"Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in
criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent Social Security
numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent
some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens
on
a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status. In
addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also
prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today's federal prison
population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of
felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal
aliens."


-- Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House
Subcommittee on Immigration, Border, Security and Claims [Note: 99% of
warrants for murder in Los Angeles, California -- the USA's 2nd
most-populous city -- are for illegal aliens]

tireless minority keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of
men."
