Ron Paul: Republicans, Democrats Teaming Up for Federal Gun Confiscation Bill

Free Thought Project – by Matt Agorist

In an email Tuesday night, former Congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul released an ominous statement claiming that a source they have in the Senate revealed Democrats are teaming up with Republicans to push through a massive gun control bill.

According to their source, as Paul explained, “Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) are teaming up with Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) to ram through one of the worst nationwide gun confiscation schemes ever devised.” 

The gun confiscation bill, according to Paul, is designed to disarm Americans without any due process. The senators are using the recent tragic shooting in Texas as the impetus behind the law—in spite of the fact that this law would not have prevented the shooting at all.

As the Free Thought Project has previously reported, some states have already begun implementing laws like this one. Using mass shootings as a their ammunition, states have enacted “Red Flag” or “Risk Protection” laws which allow police to confiscate a person’s weapon before they are ever given a chance to defend themselves.

In both of the gun confiscation cases reported by TFTP, neither of the two men were suspected of committing a crime, nor had they committed a crime.

Under the fifth and fourteenth amendments, due process clauses are in place to act as a safeguard from arbitrary denial of life, liberty, or property by the government outside the sanction of law. What’s more, neither of the men were granted their sixth amendment rights to be confronted with the witnesses against them. In both cases, simple orders—under new laws—were issued, arguably arbitrarily, which stripped these two men of their property.

In spite of what officials and the media claim, when a person is stripped of their constitutional rights, albeit temporarily, without being given the chance to make their own case based on what can be entirely arbitrary accusations, this is the removal of due process.

As Ron Paul explains, this removal of due process could soon be a federal law.

Under so-called “Red Flag” or “Risk Protection” Orders, anti-gun family members, neighbors, or associates could have your guns taken away based on mere accusations without any real due process or trial.

In secret court proceedings, where only your accuser is present, judges could determine that you pose a “significant danger” to someone, including yourself.

Imagine your surprise when a heavily armed SWAT Team arrives to seize your lawfully owned firearms.

It would then cost you tens of thousands of dollars in court costs and weeks or even months to try and convince the court they made a mistake.

To be clear, no one here is advocating for people determined to be mentally unfit to be able to possess firearms. However, they need to be determined to be mentally unfit before they lose their rights.

To those who may be in favor of such laws, consider the following: There is no way to stop an estranged spouse from calling police repeatedly and telling them their ex is threatening to cause harm to others. While the man in Florida had his guns taken for being psychologically unfit, the man in Seattle simply open-carried a pistol and looked out of windows and his guns were taken because his neighbors thought it was strange.

Anyone, any time, now has the ability to claim someone else is a threat and have police take their guns. One does not need to delve into the multiple ‘what if’ scenarios to see what sort of ominous implications arise from such a practice. What’s more, police in some states now have the power to deem you a threat at any time and legally disarm you—due process be damned.

This is the exact scenario that Donald Trump advocated for in February.

As Ron Paul explains, this is entirely unconstitutional.

The words of the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution are so easy to grasp:

“. . . the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

There were no asterisks and no footnotes. There are no sentences that follow which start with the words “unless” or “however.” The right to defend your life and property shall not be infringed by the government.

Period.

Paul’s Campaign for Liberty has set up the Defend the Second Amendment Directive where citizens can sign a petition to demand their Senator not pass this blow to freedom and self-defense. You can sign it here.

Please share this article to let your friends and family that saying, “they are coming for our guns,” is not a conspiracy theory.

  1. ‘The gun confiscation bill, according to Paul, is designed to disarm Americans without any due process.’
    ……’without any due process.’

    Gee……isn’t that exactly what Henry has been talking about like…forever!

      1. LOL!
        You are right.
        The words that I wanted to use should not be heard, brother.

  2. I’ve been taking a lot of sh*t from my conservative friends over this just for asking – had Obama advocated taking guns first then give due process, would you have remained silent?
    The mind washed masses pretty much disgust me anymore with their refusal to be intellectually honest and consistent.
    I guess they fear being ostracized by their favorite bread and circus team.

    1. LMAO!
      Why….. If obummer would have even suggested such a thing there would have been cries of TRAITOR!!
      Impeach him!!!!!!!

    2. Yes, they’re blinded by the left/right bs, and I believe they want to be. It’s a convenient excuse to be a few steps behind so they can stay out of any fight based on their “beliefs”.
      In reality they’re either rock stupid or pu$$y faggots, but either way, they’re completely F’g useless. Servants of the red kosher machine is all they are.

    3. I lost my older sister like a vampire bite to Facebook and MSNBC…she’s 67…..I’m 53. So sad they literally run away from facts statistics and truth….then -Not In My Backyard hypocrites – and an EBT card loaded the first of every month never considering to plan prepare and actually ” make it ” on their own.

  3. Interesting…just how many folks will be hired to do such a “confiscation”? Since I dig math a lot, let me speculate (I once had a blog where I did just that…I have a thing with numbers…)…

    There are anywhere from 100 million to 200 million gun owners in this country, or, to make it easier, let’s say 100 million households (though I do think the number is higher, but I just want to use an easier number). Since most American troops are overseas in wars that are at least unwinnable (because they are perpetual, right?), there are maybe 1 million troops (not including logistics types) in the US in various forts or bases. There are also likely 10 million cops/border patrol agents/various law enforcers in the US. So you have 11 million plus (maybe) “gun confiscators” against 100 million households, or 100 to 200 million gun owners, all of whom I assume know how to use their guns. And most of whom know how to protect themselves from govt. troops firing on them (I do of course realize govt. troops will be wearing Kevlar and stuff and will be riding in tanks, MRAPs, etc.)

    Folks, this isn’t going to work unless the govt. does this one simple thing–kill at least 60% of the people (that is, all gun owners) by nukes, bombings from planes, fires, setting earthquakes, setting off volcanoes, creating tornadoes, creating floods (geoengineering hurricanes, stuff like that)…in other words, killing off the taxpayers that pay them. Cute. Because even Frump/Comacho can’t bring in enough MS-13 to do the job…or foreign troops. Does any politicians actually think that a foreign army can defeat a nation of 2/3 guns owners?

    I mean, if they are “confiscating” bump stocks and no one’s turning them in….And every time there’s a school shooting, more guns and ammo are sold!

  4. “Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) are teaming up with Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) to ram through one of the worst nationwide gun confiscation schemes ever devised.”

    WOW!!!

    They brought in the TOP-TIER traitors for this one.

    I’m surprised Hitlery isn’t in on this… oh, wait, she’s on EVERYBODY’S sh#t list now!

    BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

  5. If you’ve registered any weapons, you’ll be first on the list to be “visited” around 2-4 AM on any given day. So be prepared to feel those jack boots on the side of your face as you wonder what the hell just happened (Orwell).

  6. Jewbio, Pansey Graham and Frankenfeinstein… what a traitorous circus of stupidity.

    Hang them all.

    -flek

  7. The son….Rand Paul was the only hold out voter for Senate confirmation of FBI director Comey ( July 29 2013 ) and we know how he turned out… I believe he also held back on the confirmation of CIA head Jeanine Haspell…not sure.
    But Ron? Too real and genuine for politics…he also brought many many babies into this world…the 25 week old twins post on the trenches freaked me out but it’s ok …..a necessary reminder.

  8. Before you all get excited over nothing, I suggest you phone the NRA and ask if this is true. I seem to recall Trump making a statement about taking guns, but not from the law biding citizens. I think this article is more BS to inside people against Trump. Call the NRA and let them tell you the truth of the matter.

    1. Call the NRA, huh? You mean that same NRA that helped write the 1968 gun control act and supported the assault weapons ban of the 90s, unquestionable violations of the 9th Article of my people’s Bill of Rights?
      Considering that under Sections 1021 and 1022 of the NDAA, allowing the military arrests, indefinite detention, or straight up execution of an American national with no procedural due process of the law, as unchanged since its original adoption, of which no authority can exist to infringe upon it in the smallest degree in accordance to the 9th Article, just exactly what is a ‘law abiding citizen’ if not a Tory traitor to those who are infringement defying nationals?
      Of course your boy Trump never signed any directives against our owning of bump stocks, nor communist created legislation to once again remove that procedural due process under the guise of emergency powers, which once again cannot exist according the 9th Article of the people’s Bill of Rights, which is absolute law.
      The fact is what are supposed to be our employees can’t even talk about violating our Bill of Rights and there cannot be a government supreme court created by the constitution with the authority to examine, interpret, or regulate our Bill of Rights, that is a direct violation of the 9th Article of that Bill of Rights.
      Only an American national can, through the procedures in the common law Bill of Rights, which include the right to that common law court, which has been removed through the War Powers Act of which your boy Trump signed onto ten minutes after raising his right hand and swearing to defend that absolute law against all enemies foreign and domestic, so help him God.
      The NRA is an insignificant pile of dog shit, supported by Tory traitors like yourself.
      Here is something for you. We can read and interpret for ourselves and we don’t need your f#@king NRA, traitors taking millions of dollars to Washington DC to buy living sex toys for the pedophiles running this illegal operation, on the notion of gaining us some kind of favor.
      I promise you, we are the largest armed force to ever exist on this planet and the traitors at the NRA, when this is all over with, will be tried for the treason they have participated in, just like the rest of the Tories.
      You are in the wrong place, infringement abiding citizen. We are free nationals here, subjects to nothing other than the common law and Bill of Rights among ourselves, and apart from the notion of any government ruling us. So go somewhere else and lick the feet of your oppressors. You will find no comradery here.
