Guest Post by Martin Armstrong
Biden has targeted guns with the end goal to disarm America entirely. He has stated: “No amendment to the Constitution is absolute.” The real objective is to compel everyone to register every gun so they can enter your house without a warrant to seize your weapons. What they are doing is dripping out their real objective, one tiny drop at a time. The Biden Administration is now also urging the Supreme Court to let police bust into your home and seize guns without a warrant. The end game is to disarm Americans completely in hopes of preventing a revolution when they even end the right to vote in any meaningful way as in Europe.
The Fourth Amendment declares,
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
James Otis (1725-1783)
The entire American Revolution was born over illegal searches by the king. It is very sad that Biden and the Democrats have no respect for the Constitution whatsoever. John Adams, Second President, listened to the four-hour speech of the defense lawyer James Otis (1725-1783) who argued against the king’s Writs of Assistance in February 1761 that allowed the government to arbitrarily search whatever they suspected for any reason. History repeats. This is precisely what the Democrats are arguing before the Supreme Court to eliminate the Fourth Amendment. This is devastating to human rights and the very idea of a free society of “We the People.” It is a terrible day we face and this is why I say republics are the worst form of government. Biden never said anything about these objectives. He gets people to vote for him on a false agenda, no different than a fund manager given a false report claiming he made 300% last year when he really lost 50%. This is outright FRAUD!
Otis argued that the Writs of Assistance which required no probable cause placed “the liberty of every man in the hands of every petty officer.” This was in February 1761, in Boston, and the famous debate in which it occurred was perhaps the most prominent event, which inaugurated the resistance of the colonies to the oppressions of the mother country. “Then and there,” said John Adams, “then and there was the first scene of the first act of opposition to the arbitrary claims of Great Britain. Then and there, the child Independence was born.” History indeed repeats. The tyranny of the Biden Administration is unfolding as was the case under King George III.
Here are a few excerpts from that famous speech of James Otis that so moved John Adams and inspired the birth of the American Revolution.
I will to my dying day oppose, with all the powers and faculties God has given me, all such instruments of slavery on the one hand and villainy on the other as this Writ of Assistance is. It appears to me the worst instrument of arbitrary power, the most destructive of English liberty and the fundamental principles of law, that ever was found in an English law-book…
The writ prayed for in this petition, being general, is illegal. It is a power that places the liberty of every man in the hands of every petty officer. I say I admit that special Writs of Assistance, to search special places, may be granted to certain persons on oath. But I deny that the writ now prayed for can be granted…
In the first place, the writ is universal, being directed “to all and singular justices, sheriffs, constables, and all other officers and subjects”; so that, in short, it is directed to every subject in the King’s dominions. Everyone with this writ may be a tyrant; if this commission be legal, a tyrant in a legal manner, also, may control, imprison, or murder any one within the realm. In the next place, it is perpetual; there is no return. A man is accountable to no person for his doings. Every man may reign secure in his petty tyranny, and spread terror and desolation around him, until the trump of the Archangel shall excite different emotions in his soul. In the third place, a person with this writ, in the daytime, may enter all houses, shops, etc., at will, and command all to assist him. Fourthly, by this writ not only deputies, etc., but even their menial servants, are allowed to lord it over us…
One of the most essential branches of English liberty is the freedom of one’s house. A man’s house is his castle; and whilst he is quiet, he is as well guarded as a prince in his castle. This writ, if it should be declared legal, would totally annihilate this privilege. Custom-house officers may enter our houses when they please; we are commanded to permit their entry. Their menial servants may enter, may break locks, bars, and everything in their way; and whether they break through malice or revenge, no man, no court can inquire. Bare suspicion without oath is sufficient.
Let me make something VERY clear. Part of the Build Back Better agenda from the World Economic Forum is to eliminate all democratic rights. To enter your home without a warrant means they do not have to claim there is probable cause that you even have a weapon. That means every home can be violently searched at will. The Biden Administration is attacking every amendment head-on, from free speech, religion (e.g., locking down churches), to the Second Amendment right now. They already have obliterated Due Process of Law and want to repeal the Fourth Amendment effectively. If you disarm Americans, then there is also no reason for the police to be armed, as is the case in London.
He states to justify this order: “Every day in this country, 360 people are shot. Every single day 106 of them die.” On average, there are 16,438 car crashes per day in the US. In 2016, 37,416 people died in car crashes, which is 102.6 people per day die. So should Biden issue an executive order outlawing all cars?
The Democrats are systematically altering the entire country and overturning the Constitution, which stands in their way of Marxism. The Democrats have no mandate. They hold power by a slim 50.4%. There was certainly no mandate in the outcome of the last election that justifies anything they are doing of this magnitude. The November 2020 election simply confirmed that the US remains split precisely down the middle, 50-50. This has been the case really for at least 20 years, ever since the deadlock of Al Gore and George W. Bush. If the 2020 election meant anything at all, it once again just confirmed that the nation is trapped with irreconcilable differences, and like a marriage, the only possible solution is DIVORCE. That means revolution!

The same Biden who said that soon there will be commercial airplanes going at Mach 28, that is 21 ooo miles per hour folks. No joke:
“I tell the kids, the young people that work for me — I told my kids, when I go on college campuses, they’re going to see more change in the next 10 years than we’ve seen in the last 50 years,” Biden said during an address about his proposed infrastructure legislation. “We’re going to talk about commercial aircraft flying at subsonic speeds, supersonic speeds, be able to figuratively, if you may, if we decide to do it, be able to traverse the world in an hour, travel at 21,000 miles an hour.”
You must have heard wrong. Biden seems to be pushing trains. Trains are only so fast, here in the U.S.
Beats me the article was in the Gateway Pundit
Yeah; lets’ go with trains; the singular vehicle on Earth that can be stopped by simply parking a truck across its tracks, or tearing out a section of said tracks. For those of us who studied history before it was “revised,” the Civil War pretty much summed up the weaknesses of railroads…
The trip will still take 6 hours. Dementia Joe can not remember anything that happened more than 7 minutes ago so, yeah, it will seem, to him, that it only took 7 minutes.
Great find!
21,000 mph is like spacecraft reentry speed.
Anyone remember the failed shuttle reentry?
The fact that Biden is retarded is exactly what the junta needed. He’s capable – barely – of reading what they put into in front of him.
Tyrants. That describes what I’m seeing from Washington. Just imagine what it will come down to for the people refusing to get the jab. It’s coming. Democrats don’t seem to be into rules or laws or the Constitution, your personal freedom and liberty don’t mean squat to them. The Republicans are only a few steps behind the Demorats.
Entire?? Really? Sumvabitch, learn sumthin’ new every day! /s
Anyway … war in Ukraine is now imminent. Shit WILL hit the fan no later than May. Since the Constitution no longer matters Dementia Jo can declare war on his own, take away more liberties, and have a nice nap before noon.

Good thing none of it has anything to do with us, or I might be upset.
The Ukraine is goign to lose any fight with Russia and they’re going to deserve everything that happens to them. I like the Ukrainian people. I’ve had some good times with them. Their govt, on the other hand, is even worse than ours.
We got no dog in this fight. Let Russia do whatever they want to the Ukraine and nothing changes for us. And for the Ukrainians- just look how hard we fought for Georgia in 2008. Expect nothing better from us.
What it has to do with us is that China Joe has just about pledged us to fight on the side of Ukraine, so, we either go to war with Russia, or lose any minuscule credibility we might have left as an ally.
“…and this is why I say republics are the worst form of government.”
Question; do you have a better idea? ‘Asking for a friend…
‘Wanna know an even WORSE idea? Storm into someone’s house with the intent of relieving the resident of his firearms… I don’t think China Joe has thought this one through…
He was really referring to the 1st Amendment, that is the goal.
THIS is why we have the 2nd Amendment.
Red flag law will take care of the 2nd.
They already have the word “deplorable” to describe those to be targeted. A site such as this will be used to flag one as such, just the fact one even reads it.

I would caution that this ends in a bloodbath, but that’s what they want.
N mercy, no quarter.

Don’t do it. Don’t register. Instead stock up on ghost guns and ammo while you still can. Once a gun is on the system they will know exactly where to look once they start banning them. A blogger I follow called Big Country Expat has the best idea. Just let the government know you lost your firearms in a tragic boating accident
Shall not be infringeD
Has a certain Absolute feel to it. The power of the government sure as Hell isn’t All Encompassing. Keep pushing, maggot.
Joe Biden and the radical left want to remove immunity from the gun manufactures but not the vaccine manufacturers. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Wow. Good point.
“…Shall not be infringed…” ‘Sounds pretty absolute to me…
DO NOT allow government to take away what was given you by GOD…
Mr. Armstrong is, of course, spot on. If you are not preparing to play your part in the civil war that is already throwing its shadow across the land, you are whistling past the graveyard. It is coming and it is coming fast. Today I read a letter signed by more than a hundred “former senior national security, military, and elected officials”, calling on Congress to form a bi-partisan commission to investigate the January 6 trespassing incident at the U.S. capitol (how American citizens can trespass in a building that belongs to them is not explained). Needless to say, this collection of scumbags (I know some of them personally or by reputation – they are the worst examples of Deep State vermin you can imagine) is outraged and sputtering a demand to prevent “domestic terrorist attacks”. Of course, the real objective of the letter these assholes signed is to urge the government to attack patriotic Americans, especially the half of the nation that supported Donald Trump. I am keeping a copy of it. The names will prove useful when and if we get out country back and start sorting out the traitors who have brought us to this state.
I’m dumbfounded that we are putting up with so much. Has anyone’s line been crossed yet? If not, WHY not? What IS your line?
As for me…I educate sleeping dumbasses. I push back on everything…even when threatened with arrest when in a blue state for not following their “rules”. Sorry, this is America…freedom should not change state to state. I’m currently putting money aside for bail when the time comes. I know I’ll need it eventually. Medical and parental tyranny, and ignoring the Constitution is THE hill I WILL die on. I’m ready.
Over on Revolver.com there are a couple of articles about this letter. Darren Beattie runs Revolver and related to Steve Bannon today some of his interactions with these guys. Beattie is the only Ivy League Prof who supported Trump before 2016. He said most of these guys are stupid, arrogant, and they absolutely hate us for some reason. The segment with Bannon on Warroom this morning is there too.
Those in charge are not playing by the rules anymore…so WHY are we??? I’m involved in local conservative groups and everyone still seems we can work hard to get the perfect candidates elected and turn this ship around. It ain’t gonna happen! I’m so tired of conservatives/libertarians trying to play by the rules. There are NO rules at this point. Wish everyone can get that and move on to Plan B…whatever that is, but it’s surely NOT election integrity and voting our way out of this. It won’t happen. THEY won’t let that happen. I’m ready to get this show on the road. Tired of dragging out the inevitable.
… We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Thomas Jefferson, et al July 1776
I never tire of reading that!
The first step taken after that Declaration was to hold a Continental Congress, where representatives from all the colonies met to plan concrete steps to be taken.
I seldom hear calls today for anything similar. All I hear is people shouting “resist” and imagining that some sort of organized resistance will magically arise and even more magically prevail.
There sure are a lot of people advocating for “divorce” and “succession” and “revolution” these days, calling such actions “the only solution”.
Unfortunately, I’ve yet to hear any sort of concrete plan., or any sort of explanation of what might happen after the revolution…
I’d hate to see America devolve into anarchy and civil war, but I know the communists are rooting for that to happen.
Regarding the 2nd Amendment, “progressives” in the 1930s I think, changed the clear meaning of “infringe”, somehow claiming that it means “deny”, thereby allowing endless infringements on our right to keep and bear arms, just so long as the infringements didn’t completely deny the right.
Now it seems some of our federal judges are confused about the meaning of “bear”, positing that bearing arms means keeping certain specified types of arms in our homes, and nothing more.
We are atomized. There are millions of us all looking figuratively at one another and wondering who will go first. Obviously whomever goes first will get smoked… and second, and third etcetera. So we look for a leader, a massing, so that millions of us go first at the same time and though many are certain to die each might have a chance to live.
It is the concern over living that halts us, that and the understanding of the futility of individual action. The power arrayed against us is massive, intricately interlinked into every aspect of our lives. A nation of subsistence farmers would have a better chance than us of throwing off the shackles we all wear.
Even the idea of organizing is fraught. To organize is to become visible, to become visible inevitably leads to retribution. They know we are here, they saw the vote, they overcame it and will never allow such a thing to happen again. I asked the question ‘what will you do?’ of many people after the election and prior to the January 6th debacle at the capitol. The answer was near universally, with one exception, ‘I don’t know’. The exception said he was going to go along with whatever came up. So far his was the genuine answer, as ‘I don’t know’ means the same thing.
So, what am I going to do? I don’t know.
