Dont be Conned out of our 2nd Amendment

Without your help we could be Conned Out of our 2nd Amendment Rights to Keep and Bear Arms Several states have introduced bills allegedly nullifying federal gun laws and rejecting Obamas Executive Order mandating such. The message is basically You arent going to get our 2nd Amendment! There are other bills nullifying Obamacare, the NDAA (indefinite detention of American people), etc. Thats all well and good. Under the 10th Amendment state legislators have the power and the duty to do so. State legislators are waking up to the power they hold under the 10th Amendment! However, while so much attention is currently focused on saving the 2nd Amendment while all eyes are off the ball not only the 2nd Amendment, but our entire Bill of Rights are once again being threatened by state resolutions calling for a Constitutional Convention! Con-Con. In order to confuse the issue the backers are calling it an Article V Amendment Convention, claiming it is not, will not, cannot become a ConCon. That is a lie and your state legislators are falling for it. A Con-Con by any other name is still a Con-Con. The first and only Con-Con took place in Philadelphia in 1787 when delegates gathered in a Conference of States (not a Constitutional Convention) to discuss problems with interstate commerce. They were given strict instructions by the Congress that they were to meet only for the sole and express purpose of revising the Articles of Confederation. Eleven of the twelve states specifically instructed their delegates to are aware of the dangers of a Con-Con; aware of the fact that our constitution has been hanging by a thread due to the highly paid lobbyists lying to legislators for the past nearly fifty years regarding the so-called safetymechanism built into Article V. There is no safety. If thirty-four (34) states pass the resolution, there is no turning back! It is our understanding that the Goldwater Institute has committed $28 million dollars to get the resolution passed in enough states across America to get this done. A Balanced Budget Amendment Task Force Article V Boot Camp for state legislators, legislative staff, nonprofits, political activists, and the business community, was held Friday, Feb. 8th. Theyre armed and they are dangerous. At this time we dont have information on its content. BOOT CAMP? Where they use a logical, systematic process of intense mental indoctrination... This concept follows the rationale that if one can be convinced to accept two simultaneously contradictory concepts, the result is a controllable person. No longer an individual. Part of a team. Here is Section 3 of the resolution being considered by many states now. Section 3. This application is to be considered as covering the same subject matter as the presently-outstanding balanced budget applications from other states, including but not limited to previously-adopted applications from Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and 1

discuss nothing more than the commerce issue. (Patrick Henry was chosen to be a delegate but refused to attend the convention because he didnt want to give the central government more power, fearing it would endanger the rights of states and individuals. It appears now that Henry was a prophet!) Once convened, the delegates locked the doors, nailed the windows shut so passers-by couldnt hear, formed a committee of the whole (chaired by George Washington President of the Conference), took a vote and declared the Articles of Confederation null and void! Pow! In the sweltering heat and humidity from May til October they finally emerged with a wholly new form of government. The new constitution had been waiting in the wings! The Conference of the States became a runaway Constitutional Convention! It happened then and we are certain it will happen again if we dont stop the process. An Article V Amendment Convention today will undoubtedly mutate exactly the same way it happened in 1787! This time around, the new constitution would NOT contain a Bill of Rights. A Constitution for the New states of America has been waiting in the wings since 1974! Many of you reading this message

Texas; and this application shall be aggregated with same for the purpose of attaining the two-thirds of states necessary to require the calling of a convention, but shall not be aggregated with any applications on any other subject. They count 17 states with standing calls. Louisiana and N. Dakota passed their resolution last year. Theres also Delaware and Maryland, missing from their list. We have no knowledge of the last two rescinding their call. That brings the count to 21 states with a standing call. If this count is accurate they need only 13 more states to bring their fiftyyear old plan into fruition. The U.S. Congress is bound by the constitution to convene a convention when/if the 34th state passes the same. There are papers that lay out the NAFTA Implementation Schedule, which shows that by 2005 the U.S. and Canada were to be merged. Several years ago, a guest on the Sweet Liberty radio broadcast told American listeners about a Canadian TV program with a group of professors discussing a recent summit he had attended, and they all came to the conclusion that the merger could never happen unless they could somehow repeal our 2nd Amendment. Its now 2013; they didnt get the guns, and thus far, Canada and U.S. are still separate sovereigns. They want our guns! They cannot get our guns without dismantling our constitution! Take Note!
