More on Immigration and Gun Control

We are not ignorant. There are ways to "stack the deck" and appear reasonable and to have found agreement "across the aisle". We also know that laws and bills can be passed whereas certain elements are conviently not enforced. We the People will stay vigilant. But first things first. Let's get the right laws passed the right ways, with every angle and based covered that constitutionally casts the widest net. Then, we will as said, can remain vigilant about the enforcement of such laws.

#Immigration reform. 2 things. 1) I'd like to see something in the bill that speaks of what measures will be taken if there is no compliance with any of the points of the new bill, and also a time limit put on how long immigrants and businesses and all other entities have before they MUST come into compliance, 2) Putting enforcement of sealing our borders first is not a bad idea. This is right if we are serious about a new day.

#Guncontrol

In like matter to what I said in the first paragraph, there are ways to stack the deck. It is possible to be legally, constitionally right to satisfy, but not enforce. Or, conversely enforce only the parts you want.

This week, one of the new Presidents of a Middle Eastern countries that is in much turmoil, intrigued me. He said,  "According to our Constitution..." then continued to do what was in their constitution.

I speak so well of the founders of our land, America, for ... (to be continued....)

#Guncontrol

For good reason I speak well of the founders of our country. Our founders in writing the Declaration and more so in writing the law that governs us did a remarkable thing. Preferences were out. Though Christianity and Judeo-Christian values were prevalent and of the majority, the founders still wrote a document that embraced the minority that may have existed then,  and any minority that should come. The individual being most minor of all is well protected, and as well protected as the largest group. 

Most laws bind. These men miraculously wrote laws and doctrine that frees and not binds. They founded America on principles that will be firm but elastic that we may grow as one whole, and each of us according to our own found value system contained within. The document dictates. But it is very perculiar, because it dictates freedom.

I mentioned a new president from the Middle East who referred to his countries Constitution and then took action. The Constitution is newly formed and ratified. Regardlesss of the context or how it was used, or whether or not I agreed with the word or action, I was overwhelmed with hope that the President of a formerly recent Dictatorship said according to our Constitution.

America. We must be a good example. You can have a Dictorship with a Dictator, but you can also have a Dactatoship by document. If the Constitution is changed just so that a group, minority or majority, can have its way, effectively democracy is no more. And if that happens, what example will it set for the new democratic nations popping up. Each regime can set principles that look good and seems to promote life and liberty, but change the words that govern when ever things don't go their way and effectively be still a Dictator and Dictatorship.

Please. Be a good example to all the world, but especially to the Middle East, Asian, and Northern African nations that seem to desire something better.

Find common ground but do not ban "assault" rifles. There is a way regulate and make us safe. And as I've said before, the issue isn't always the inanimate objects, but we must address the conscience of this nation and the souls of men.

Thank you.

Peace Now!
