Senator Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) and Congressman Jamie Raskin (MD-08) introduced legislation on Thursday that would effectively outlaw militias in America.
The proposal highlights Democrats’ complete disregard for the U.S. Constitution as the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights clearly states, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
That’s right, the militia is the last line of defense for the nation when it comes to both foreign and domestic threats.
However, radicalized globalist politicians like Markey and Raskin are openly trying to take away the nation’s right to defend itself.
A press release by the Democrats reads, “Following the anniversary of the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol, Senator Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) and Congressman Jamie Raskin (MD-08) introduced the Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act, legislation that would create a federal prohibition on paramilitary groups through civil and criminal enforcement.”
“The prohibition,” the notice explains, “would hold individuals liable who directly engage in certain types of conduct, including intimidating state and local officials, interfering with government proceedings, pretending to be law enforcement, and violating people’s constitutional rights, while armed and acting as part of a private paramilitary organization.”
The ridiculous legislative proposal is totally unnecessary because “intimidating state and local officials, interfering with government proceedings, pretending to be law enforcement, and violating people’s constitutional rights” are already illegal activities.
Senator Markey issued a statement explaining why he supports the legislation, saying:
“Three years ago, white supremacists affiliated with paramilitary organizations stormed the U.S. Capitol, shattering windows, walls, and the families of five U.S. Capitol police officers. Private paramilitary actors, such as the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, pose a serious threat to democracy and the rule of law, and we must create new prohibitions on their unauthorized activities that interfere with the exercise of people’s constitutional rights. The forces of bigotry, hatred, and violent extremism must be stopped for the sake of our democracy.”
Congressman Raskin said:
“Patrolling neighborhoods, impeding law enforcement and storming the U.S. Capitol, private paramilitary groups like the Oath Keepers, the Three Percenters and the Proud Boys are using political violence to intimidate our people and threaten democratic government and the rule of law. Our legislation makes the obvious but essential clarification that these domestic extremists’ paramilitary operations are in no way protected by our Constitution. I’m grateful to Senator Markey for his partnership on this critical effort to protect the rule of law, deter insurrection and defend our democracy.”
While the politicians claim they’re worried about groups like the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys “using political violence to intimidate” people, it seems more like they understand Jan. 6 was not a real coup and that they’re afraid of an actual insurrection taking place since they plan on continuing to systemically destroy the country.
Of course, even the American Declaration of Independence made it clear the people have the “right” to abolish or alter any government that has become destructive to the pursuit of happiness.
And “when a long train of abuses and usurpations,” have reduced the country to “absolute despotism,” it is the people’s “duty to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.”
GOP Louisiana Congressman Clay Higgins slammed the bill and the Democrats behind it, saying:
“There’s no way guys like that are going to mandate the everyday life and behaviors of who I associate with. What we decide to do. What we decide to discuss. If we decide to go to the range and train. Those same guys would be lost on a tactical training range. They’d go hide in their car. They don’t qualify to hang out with me. And I don’t expect them to understand the kinds of skills that men like me honed over the course of my life. They are only required to be quiet and stay out of our way if the s*** hits the fan anywhere in any way so that we can protect them.”
The corrupt Democrats are simply trying to get ahead of the political curve as they know an “angrier world” is coming, as World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab infamously said in 2020.
