Parker v. D.C. - If I Could Speak To The Supreme Court . . .

What is the most compelling argument for armed citizens? What can be left out of the argument? Indeed, what is the reason for disarming citizens against a right secured by law?

With five minutes before the Supremes, you'd better get it right and concisely.

Then the questions begin.

What can be forgotten and left out of making the case in Parker v. District of Columbia worries observer, author and columnist John Longenecker, is Original Intent of the Founders. 

"Original Intent of the Founders is germane to our way of life today," says Longenecker, "because the Founders had it up to here with abuse of the law backed by unrighteous force. Takings and regulations such as in D.C. are illegal because they attack the legal force which backs citizen authority."

The result is, of course, rampant violent crime, commited largely without guns, but with knives, brute force, home invasions and, almost worst of all, abductions.

Longenecker believes that the force in this nation was meant to reside within the citizenry to back citizen authority forever, and 80 million gun owners back him. "Others back this value, too, when they understand that the citizen is the ultimate authority in this country, when it comes to making law, when it comes to running your own home, when it comes to self-defense."

Longenecker makes his case in his latest edition of Good For The Country.
