GUN rIGHts<br />
Continued from page 78<br />
You want a diverse multicultural<br />
feeling of compassionate environmentalism?<br />
Go to California. You want your<br />
gun rights intact? Come to Arizona. You<br />
want easy access to abortion or gay marriage?<br />
Try Massachusetts. Family values<br />
are important to you? Check out the Midwest.<br />
Some state goes too far? The feds<br />
can step in — hopefully — for balance.<br />
Effective<br />
The dual system is remarkably effective.<br />
Initially, the idea of being under<br />
two sets of laws is a turn off, until you<br />
realize federal and state forces compete<br />
with each other. The states fight against<br />
the feds for your rights. The feds fight<br />
with the states over control and a balance<br />
of power. We may seem a little<br />
(a lot?) out of balance just now, but<br />
that fight is a good thing. All the time<br />
governments spend focusing on each<br />
other instead of on you enhances your<br />
freedom. And it gives you two routes<br />
instead of only one to redress grievances<br />
or advance causes. This is good.<br />
All that said, I have to encourage the<br />
stalwarts among you to remain where<br />
you Die are. Ad America 5/21/12 needs 10:51 freedom AM fighters <strong>Page</strong> 1<br />

Greater Accuracy, More Value<br />
Lyman Delivers Two Die Sets In One.<br />
Achieve maximum accuracy from your reloads<br />
with Lyman's Deluxe Rifle 3-Die set. This one die<br />
set combines a premium Carbide Expander<br />
Assembly and a Neck Sizing Die with a Full Length<br />
Die Set for maximum versatility. Lyman's Deluxe<br />
3-Die Rifle Sets offer these benefits:<br />
•Carbide Expander Smooths Neck Expansion<br />
& Extends Case Life: The free-floating carbide<br />
button eliminates inside neck lube while reducing case<br />
stretching and extending case life. Also, repositioning<br />
the carbide button up the decapping rod better utilizes<br />
the press' leverage in any sizing die.<br />
•Neck Sizing Die Enhances Accuracy:<br />
Retaining the precise chamber dimensions of the<br />
individual rifle maximizes accuracy potential and can<br />
dramatically extend case life.<br />
•Full Length Sizing Die Restores Brass to<br />
Factory Dimensions: Perfect for hunting or<br />
autoloading rounds or for brass fired in other <strong>rifles</strong>.<br />
•Bullet Seating Die: Precisely Seats and Crimps<br />
•Most Popular Calibers: .204 Ruger, .22/250, .223,<br />
.243, 6.5x55, .270 Win., .30/06, .308, .300 Win.,<br />
7mm Rem. Mag., .338 Win., .338 Lapua<br />
especially in the most repressive states.<br />
People like Scott Bach, fighting overwhelming<br />
odds and anti-rights bigotry in<br />
New Jersey, make ground little by little,<br />
and give the anti-rights bigots no quarter.<br />
Like you, he fights the good fight. When<br />
you feel weak and believe you’re only<br />
one person remember — everyone is<br />
only one person. Stand your ground.<br />
By being a citizen of<br />
both the nation and<br />
the state you are in,<br />
you have choice.<br />
your feet can vote.<br />
Oh, and about those barefoot refugees<br />
abroad with their lives on their backs<br />
fleeing to a new mud hole away from the<br />
old mud hole’s new tyrant? Their right to<br />
arms or even self-defense is below zero.<br />
If they arm themselves with weapons<br />
abandoned along the way they (and their<br />
families) can be summarily executed.<br />
Cold dead fingers, anyone?<br />
If you help them get weapons, even<br />
to avoid an active genocide, that’s subversive.<br />
You become a reviled interna-<br />
tional gun smuggler and a mortal enemy<br />
of the state running the extermination.<br />
The U.N. actually backs your execution,<br />
by remaining passive about the<br />
murderers in power. And it makes you<br />
a felon under all sorts of US gun laws,<br />
despite what we sometimes think is a<br />
robust Second Amendment.<br />
Genocide<br />
In a ground-breaking Notre Dame<br />
Law Review article in May, 2006,<br />
scholars David Kopel, Paul Gallant and<br />
Joanne Eisen asked the question, “Is<br />
Resisting Genocide A Human Right?”<br />
After extensive research and documentation,<br />
looking at U.N. policies,<br />
the laws of the world and how they’ve<br />
been implemented, they conclude that<br />
although resistance to genocide should<br />
be protected, as a practical matter it<br />
essentially is not.<br />
Should we follow the example of<br />
the rest of the world? Or should we, as<br />
we have always done, remain exceptional,<br />
and stand up for freedom and<br />
what is right? Arming refugees against<br />
the atrocities perpetrated on them is the<br />
right and moral course of action, at home<br />
and abroad. So what if it might upset the<br />
dictators and tyrants. Armed<br />
refugees are a flag of freedom.<br />
