I wanna start this off by asking, would you be open to a sit down with myself and possibly others to actually get these questions answered, either in a public setting or with members of the news there? I just simply would like to get to the root of this.
Again, I have some prefacing to do before getting into this response. From your reply, it seems you have shut down and disregarded nearly all of my reply, not even commenting on it, and from my side, the only reason for this is because you have taken my actions and words as hostility when that simply isn't the case. I am just a very enthusiastic and well-knowledge individual, speaking with someone who continually disrespects the highest power in the land –
OUR CONSTITUTION.
Due to the responses I have seen recently, it appears you have not read the Constitution, nor do you understand it. So, I will make it very clear on how the power and authority goes.
Article II | Foundation and Powers of the Board of Governors. THIS DOCUMENT, CALLED THE CONSTITUTION, NOT ONLY GIVES THE CITIZENS RIGHTS BUT GIVES SPECIFIC GROUPS POWERS. These include others, such as the Judicial Branch, for example, to which I dearly hope you recognize. But the most important group, in my opinion for this situtation, that it gives power to is the
BOARD OF GOVERNORS. If you recognize the power and authority of the Board of Governors, why do you not recognize the
RIGHTS of the people, which are given by the same document with the same power? It is mind-blowing that you can't fathom this, and it makes me ask the questions to which I would genuinely like answers if you would be so kind as to give me the
Privilege of a response. These are
"Have you read the Constitution?" and
"Do you understand the Constitution?".
One of the few things you did say is that if you were to open the applications up, there would be a huge number of criminal record firearm applicants. So once again, I am left thinking, do you understand what I'm actually saying? I am not saying give them to everyone and anyone, no matter what. I am saying instead of trying to be the top and change these yourself, propose these changes to the relevant people, which, as I said before, is the House of Representatives or the Board of Governors. You said you have gone to the board of governors, so that while is the lesser of the two, I would like to see. I appreciate you at least took it to the proper channels.
I have spoken with many people about your previous response, to which nobody understands what you mean when you say I'm splitting hairs. This is not what I'm doing. I'm bringing up the highest law of our land and what they call them, just like they define Chief Justice, Associate Justice, Attorney General, Director of the Defenders Office, and Speaker of the House, to name a few. Not for what a constitutional right it is, as said in the constitution, a right for the citizens to bear arms.
I do not believe I explained your job quite simply because I am unable. I described some very simple things, one of which was your titles, and the second of which is the people on the scene at Weazel, which was now that I think of it, a Commander and The Commanding Officer of Firearms Licensing, which again causes worry that the same issues that happened will transpire yet again. I am deeply saddened to hear that you, as a deputy chief, only follow orders, especially one who has been decorated. If you are just following orders, why have you been so decorated? This is not meant to attack you, but to question if you truly believe that, how have you got to where you are today? Because I believe you do so much more than that and do, for the most part, genuinely believe you are a good man and good at your job. I just believe the Constitution and the constitutional errors here have flown entirely over your head, which genuinely worries me.
When you said, "I have received no communication from any higher authority that it is an issue," I am telling you right now, as of this moment, that the paper that gives THE GOVERNORS their power stated that this is a constitutional right and the only way it can be infringed.
You said, "while you might be concerned, the people who this would be applicable to don’t have those concerns or, at the very least, have not voiced them." THIS IS OUTRIGHT DESPICABLE. I am a citizen of the state and am raising how you are breaching our rights. THIS IS DIRECTLY APPLICABLE TO ME, UNLESS YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE MY CITIZENSHIP.
In your statement about Pandora's box, I hope I have misheard you in what I've read, but does this mean that when you are informed of a possible problem, you don't even do the basic due diligence to check if there is an issue there simply because you are unsure of what the outcome is?
I will also say that the powers given to the governors on this subject are clear. If you did not have "federal executive authority" prior to the signing of the constitution, they will not only have to assure you, but also to create an executive order or for yourselves to pass it through the House of Representatives, yet another group given power via the constitution and the only group given the power to amend our constitution.
I would like to say I appreciate that you recognize and state that this is not only a complicated matter but an overcomplicated one for yourself to deal with.
So, a few cut-and-dry questions. If you could please answer these:
- Do you recognize the Constitution?
- Do you recognize the Constitution as being the ultimate law of the land?
- Do you adhere to the Constitution?
- Do you recognize the 2nd amendment?
- Do you adhere to the 2nd amendment?
- Do you recognize that the right to bear arms is, in fact, a RIGHT, not just a PRIVILEGE?
- Why have you continually disrespected our constitution in your responses to me? Has it just been simple ignorance of the topic?
- Have you read the Constitution?
- Do you understand the Constitution?
- Do you recognize the Board of Governors' power and authority?
- Do you recognize that their power is given through the Constitution?
- Did FLD, prior to the signing of the constitution, have "federal executive authority"?
