Ten Words You Should Know!
[color=darkblue]NOTE: This is Re-Post that I first posted on May 12, 2003[color]
We have an intrinsic and inherent right to keep (own, posses, retain) and bear (carry, hold, support) arms (firearms, guns, weapons). This listed right is guaranteed by the Second Amendment. We also have another intrinsic and inherent right to keep and bear arms: The Ninth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution (see Guns & Ammo, Dec. '99). This latter Constitutional protection is quite clear when each word, individually, is defined.
THE NINTH AMENDMENT:
The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be constructed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
ENUMERATION: List of items, such as those listed in the Constitution, i.e., right to keep and bear arms, right to peaceable assembly, free speech, etc.
CONSTITUTION: The basic principles and laws of a nation that determine the powers and duties of the government and guarantee certain rights to the people in it. Refers only to the Constitution of the United States of America as enacted and amended. Not federal, state or other documents, laws, edicts, statutes or court decrees.
RIGHTS: Something to which one has a just claim; the power or privilege to which one is justly entitled. The Constitution bestows certain privileges-rights-that we citizens are entitled to justly claim.
SHALL: Mandatory, must be done. Contrary to this explicit demand of the Ninth Amendment., many courts and elected officials, when it comes to gun rights issues, have ignored their mandated obligation.
CONSTRUED: Interpret: Infer, deduce, to construct. To understand, or explain the sense or intention of, in a particular way, or with respect to a given set of circumstance. The very act of incorporating the Ninth Amendment into the Bill Of Rights is construed to guarantee that these listed rights were not the only rights reserved for the citizens. The right to keep and bear arms shall not be construed to mean anything less.
DENY: To refuse to accept the existence, truth, or validity thereof. Lawmakers and some courts, in violation of this mandatory term of the Ninth Amendment, have consistently refused to accept the existence, truth and validity of our right to enforce (secure for ourselves) our unalienable (unalienable is interchangeable with inalienable) RIGHTS to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. To acknowledge a right, but deny a means to enforce or protect the right is not a right at all.
DISPARAGE: To lower in rank or reputation, degrade. To depreciate by indirect means. If our power to defend our unalienable rights is degraded, depreciated or reduced, then those rights, in violation of this Amendment, have been disparaged. There is no greater degradation of a right than to restrict the enjoyment or enforcement of this right. If collecting or shooting guns is one's Pursuit of Happiness then any government interference is a dispraragement of this right.
RETAINED: To keep in possession, to hold secure or intact, keep. Rights, listed or unlisted in the Constitution, belong to us, the citizens of the United States, and are not subject to removal, political correctness, denial or disparagement.
PEOPLE: Human beings making up a group or assembly or linked by common interest. The citizens, individually or together of the United Stares of America.
OTHERS: Being the one or ones distinct from that or those first mentioned or implied. Refers to rights, as in other rights, the certain rights first mentioned in the Ninth Amendment. These other rights are unalienable rights such as, though not limited to, those self-evident Truths: "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness."
Self-evident truths cannot be disparaged, denied, or construed to mean anything else than what they are: God-Given, American-recognized, Rights. Any attempt to deny, or disparage any of them is a violation of the Ninth Amendment. None of these rights is guaranteed by any government. Conversely these rights do not require government action, but compel the benefactor to act out these rights on his own. The person seeking to secure his right to protect his family is obligated to commit some action, such as keeping and bearing arms. It is his duty, not the government's to secure his personal rights and guarantees. Protecting individual life and liberty is not a function of any government. Government's well-established civilian defense role is that of protection against foreign invasion, keeping order and seeing that the people's Constitutional are not violated by its agents, employees and officials.
Therefore, acting individually, each person has the unlisted right to use what means available to secure his listed as well as unlisted rights. If a government denies the use of a firearm to protect one's property or save one's life, this government is disparaging or denying an unenumerated right and thus is in violation of the Constitutions Ninth Amendment.
